Passion Lighting is a full-service showroom with thousands of lighting products on display. The 13,000-square-foot facility showcases the latest in modern, contemporary, landscaping and transitional lighting.
Bruce Paul — certified as one of the state’s few American Lighting Association Certified Lighting Consultants (CLC’s) — launched the business with his wife, Gloria Paul, just over 15 years ago.
Passion Lighting began with an entirely empty space but was soon renovated into a premier showroom due to the couple’s dedication to the industry. “We started it completely from scratch, which has been a big deal to us,” Bruce says. “And we have grown throughout the process.”
Located in Grapevine, Passion Lighting sells more than 100 lighting brands. Its inventory of more than 400,000 products includes a range of light fixtures — including high-end crystal chandeliers, modern style wall sconces, transitional lanterns, bath bars of all types and ceiling fans of all sizes and styles.
Passion Lighting is the only showroom in the state that offers in-house design and installation of landscaping lighting, including path lights, uplighting and long shroud moon lighting. In addition to its wide range of services and product offerings, the expertise of the Passion Lighting team is irreplaceable.
Bruce’s vast amount of knowledge and commitment to learning more each day is unparalleled, and it always stands out in Passion Lighting’s products and services.
“There’s a lot of opportunity in lighting, and most people don’t embrace that part,” Bruce says. “That’s what intrigued me.”
Since its launch, Passion Lighting has been a standout, having been nominated for the National Lighting Showroom of the Year competition every year but one, claiming the title once.
“Being nominated is a pretty big deal, though,” Bruce says. “There’s more than 1,000 showrooms across the country and only 15 get nominated each year from the entire US and Canada."
