Our Story
When our founder, Liza Branch, moved to Charlotte, she discovered the local lighting choices were limited as she selected options to build her own home. Having lived in New York previously, she knew more choices existed. To find items to match her vision, Liza sourced lighting from major metropolitan cities. Through this experience, she met with key vendors and established relationships that paved the way for the store’s launch. In 2001, Modern Lighting Design Store opened its doors with a mission: to offer a wide variety of on-trend brands to the Charlotte area that was unavailable locally before. Today, we carry over 50 lines of designs from New York, Chicago, Italy, Spain, and other major metropolitan hubs in the US and worldwide.
