Distinctive Lighting Concepts

General information

Our Story
Distinctive Lighting Concepts began in 1994 as a small lighting business located in Elmwood Kitchens’ St. Catharines showroom. From this location we have developed a solid client base and a reputation for offering unique lighting alternatives.

In 2016 we moved to a new location on Scott Street West. We are able to display many new and exciting light fixtures and also include home accessories in this easy to find location. Our website offers on line shopping and the opportunity to connect with the store for any questions our clients may have.

We strive to offer our customers unique selections and superior service as we continue to be Niagara’s finest lighting showroom.
