Lighting it up with Walter Spitz of Creative Designs in Lighting.
This week's guest is someone I have been collaborating on projects for almost 40 years, and has become a very close friend, Walter Spitz. Walter is the Founder, Principal and Senior Designer of Creative Designs in Lighting, an architectural lighting firm who has been specializing in "lighting for that special look" for over 40 years.
Walter began at a large lighting showroom in Phoenix as a teenager and developed a “theatrical eye” by designing for the stage, first while in school, then went on to light professional performances. This experience, combined with a growing fascination in lighting, led him to study at Banff Center of Fine Arts under Laszio Funtek. Walter has gone on to become an award-winning lighting designer, recognized across the country as a residential lighting expert.
