This place is like an upscale, better looking, better organized IKEA. If I needed décor for my new plush pad or single studio and had tons of Canadian cash, I would not hesitate to purchase from here. The best part about this place is that the owners are soooooo friendly and offered to help put together a room plan for décor and actually explained to me why I LOVE track lighting so much and what it does. Yes, some lighting actually warms or cools the look and feel of a room and where you place it and the angle of lighting also matters a lot. Their lights are pretty expensive though so … look before you buy!

Buried inside the endless stores of the massive Aberdeen Centre, is the specialty home décor store, «A light idea» where lights take on a whole new sophistication of aesthetic pleasure. Aside from being one of the brightest stores in the mall, it probably happens to be one of the most expensive(read: electricity wasting) to maintain. Hence, most of pieces here are going to be on the pricier side and as a result there is very little customer traffic in and out here, with mainly window shoppers gazing from the outside. What makes this store interesting is their array of varied lit objects that can range from anything hanging to décor pieces that sit like lamps. The staff is good at helping folks choose something appropriate for their space, just be sure to have a plan in mind and see if there are any clearance items on sale.
