HelenBilt Custom Lighting Design for Residential, Retail & Restaurants in Sag Harbor and East hampton
Every fixture begins with a conversation and ends with something no one else has. Bespoke lighting designed for residential, retail, and restaurant spaces — fabricated by hand, here on the East End.
LIGHTING DESIGN
Always Custom.
HelenBilt doesn't sell off the shelf. Every piece is drawn, fabricated, and installed with the space — and the people in it — firmly in mind. The result is lighting that feels less like a product and more like a part of the room it was made for.
Three signature collections — the Urchin, the Concord, and the blown-glass Vidro — anchor a practice built entirely around the custom commission.
Always Perfect.
OUR WORK
RESIDENTIAL LIGHTING
From the entryway to the library, we work directly with homeowners and their designers to create pieces that feel inevitable.

RETAIL LIGHTING
Retail lighting is theater. We help brands shape the way a customer feels the moment they walk in — and long after they leave.

RESTAURANT LIGHTING
Fixtures that set the scene
The right fixture can change how a table feels at 8 pm. We've lit dining rooms that diners remember as warmly as the meal.
SUSTAINABLE LIGHTING CREATION
By East End Artisans
Sustainability at HelenBilt is not a policy — it is the architecture of how every piece is made. Repurposed incandescent bulbs reduce environmental impact from the very first element, paired with recycled steel and glass throughout the fabrication process.
Each fixture begins with hand-drawn sketches and site-specific photography before Helen collaborates with a carefully chosen circle of East End artisans and craftsmen — all within a 15-mile radius of her Sag Harbor studio. Helen rides her bicycle to most design meetings, and runs HelenBilt as a live-work studio to further reduce the carbon footprint of the practice.
The result is a limited-production facility dedicated to sourcing locally, manufacturing responsibly, and utilizing recycled or repurposed materials at every stage. In an industry where luxury and conscience rarely share the same room, HelenBilt proves they were always meant to hang together.
