Hawthorne Steel Barn Light on Chicken Coop

Tell us a bit about yourself!

Jamey Gill from Lake County (located in Northern California), where I have lived most of my life (I also lived in Australia for a few years!). I love being outside, DIY projects (especially if they include upcycled, rustic design), spending time with my family (my husband and I have two sons, their initials are JAG and CAG – thus the name of my business), gardening, and stamping inspirational metal jewelry. Jag Cag Design is a passion of mine, but Iโ€™m also the Executive Director for the Blue Zones Project in Lake County, CA.

What got you into interior design?

Iโ€™ve always loved creating beautiful home spaces. After we lost everything we had to the California Valley Fire, we were unable to rebuild, and had to purchase a home that was already built. At first, it felt really hard to make this new space our own. But then I embraced the opportunity to be creative in new ways, since we had to start from scratch. I guess you could say that I love โ€œdesign on a dimeโ€; having to make do with fewer options makes for a more creative spirit!

Which room of your house is your favorite, and why?

I love every part of our house, but these days I am really drawn to our new chicken coop. We built it with wood that we milled from the trees that burned on our property (when our home burned). I know, that really isnโ€™t a part of our house per se, but itโ€™s a fun place to hang out and relax! Inside the house, I love being in our kitchen. We remodeled it with our milled wood, and I still canโ€™t believe it is ours!

Whatโ€™s your favorite part of working on a new project?

I love the whole process of watching a project come to life, start to finish! My husband is great at sketching out my design ideas, and thatโ€™s fun to see. Part way through, itโ€™s awesome to see the progress. And when we finishโ€ฆ. Well that is SO rewarding!

What made you choose Steel Lighting Co.?

I love the quality of these light fixtures, as well as the fact that they are made in California. I also love the versatility of being able to mix and match colors, shades and arms — you can come up with something totally unique! Plus, it is great for both inside and outside of your home!

My wife and I only ever had one buyer in mind: the person putting our products in their home. We aimed to sell American-made, high-quality lighting, and we keep our prices fair because we're not interested in helping middlemen make a markup; we're interested in providing for good, honest folk. Just like you. ...

We canโ€™t stop staring at this setup. That deep blue artwork, the clean contrast of black and white, the warm wood and marbleโ€”it all just works. One of those kitchens that feels modern but still totally inviting. Weโ€™re big fans of this one!

I'm still obsessed with @stacey.athome's kitchen design. Matte black and white, warm wood tones, and just the right touch of greeneryโ€”honestly, does it get better than this?

Thereโ€™s something instantly welcoming about this setupโ€”the blue door pulls you in, the Game Room sign adds the perfect contrast, and the compact Hawthorne sconce subtly lights the way. This is the kind of entry that promises cozy nights and a stack of well-loved board games waiting just inside!

If folding laundry has to happen, this is the room to do it in. From the brick herringbone floors to that crisp white shiplap, every detail in this space feels intentional. And overhead? The Malibu keeping things bright without stealing the show.

The kind of spot that makes you slow down and soak it all in. Warmer days are rolling in, and thereโ€™s nothing better than a quiet moment outsideโ€”cool shade, a warm breeze, and the glow of a classic barn light as the sun starts to set. Hereโ€™s to soft breezes, longer evenings, and the simple joy of winter turning into spring โ˜€๏ธ

Coffee tastes better with a view like this. โ˜• The warmth of the wood, the soft glow of those steel pendants, and that spacious island just waiting for good conversationโ€”it all comes together in the kind of kitchen that feels like home. Canโ€™t you just picture slow mornings here, watching the water while breakfast sizzles on the stove?

Farmhouse charm with a modern twist! From the bold contrast of black and white to the warm wood tones, this kitchen is very inviting. The Melrose pendant lights are the perfect finishing touch for a space thatโ€™s as stylish as it is functional. Who else is loving this cozy-meets-contemporary vibe?

Los Angeles has always been more than just a city to usโ€”itโ€™s home. Having grown up in LA, every corner holds a memory, and when Rachel and I started Steel Lighting Co., we wanted to celebrate that by naming our fixtures after places in LA that shaped our lives.

Watching the wildfires impact this beautiful place and the people we care about is deeply heartbreaking. Though we are thankful to be safe, many of our friends, family, and neighbors are feeling the tremendous weight of this tragedy.

Now more than ever, itโ€™s time for community, strength, and supporting each other. Our hearts and prayers are with everyone affected. Stay strong, Los Angelesโ€”weโ€™re in this together.
