How long does it take?

Most projects like this take 1–2 weeks from approved design to handover, depending on size and the materials chosen. We agree a written schedule before work starts.

How is the cost worked out?

Every project is priced on its own — by the size of the space, the materials and finishes you choose, and the amount of building work involved. After a free consultation we give you an itemised written quote, so you know the full cost before anything starts.

Our lighting design process

Good lighting design is about planning more than decoration. Every KejaPal project follows the same clear steps, so you always know what happens next and what you're paying for.

  1. Free consultation. We visit your space, or meet on a video call, to understand how you use it, your style and your budget.
  2. Measure & brief. We take accurate measurements and photos and agree a written brief so nothing is assumed.
  3. Concept & 3D design. You get a mood board, a layout and 3D renders. We revise until you're happy.
  4. Fixed written quote. An itemised quote covering materials, labour and timeline — before you commit to anything.
  5. Build & install. Our own crews and workshop build and install everything, with one project manager reporting to you.
  6. Handover & aftercare. We snag, style and hand over a clean, finished space, backed by a workmanship warranty.

Lighting design ideas and trends in Kenya

Kenyan clients increasingly want spaces that look premium but are practical for dust, sunshine, power cuts and busy family or business life. These are the lighting design ideas we're designing most often right now:

  • Floating gypsum ceilings with hidden LED strips for soft, glare-free light
  • Fluted and slatted wall panels behind TVs, beds and reception desks
  • SPC and engineered wood floors that handle Kenyan dust, moisture and traffic
  • Layered lighting: ambient, task and accent on separate switches or dimmers
  • Floor-to-ceiling curtains and sheers to make rooms feel taller

We'll help you choose what suits your space and budget rather than follow a trend that dates quickly.

Who our lighting design service is for

We regularly work with homes and apartments, offices, restaurants, lounges and shops. Layered lighting plans that make every space look and feel better. Whether it's your first project or your tenth, you get the same senior designer, a 3D design and a written quote before work begins.

Lighting design in Nairobi

Our studio works in every part of Nairobi, with recent lighting design projects in Karen, Runda, Lavington, Kilimani, Kileleshwa, Westlands, Upper Hill, Lang'ata, South C, Kasarani, Embakasi and Muthaiga. We understand the difference between a Kilimani apartment, a Karen family home and a Westlands office — and design for each accordingly.

We also deliver lighting design in Nairobi's satellite towns and every major town in Kenya, including Ruaka, Kiambu, Thika, Ruiru, Kitengela, Syokimau, Rongai, Ngong, Mombasa, Nyali, Diani, Kisumu, Nakuru, Naivasha, Eldoret, Nanyuki, Nyeri, Machakos, Meru, Kakamega, Kisii and Malindi. For projects outside Nairobi we combine site visits with video calls, manufacture in our workshop, then deliver and install with our own team — so you get Nairobi-quality finishes wherever you are.

Is LED lighting worth it?
