Mark Pohlkamp
President and Founder
email:mark@litstyle.com

Mark founded LIT in 2003 to satisfy his passion for mood, entertainment and ambiance lighting. " I was always searching for a versatile lighting system that could be easily changed for any mood, event or for entertainment. Over the years he has worked with various lighting technologies. "Initially our products were all incandescent and were not very versatile; thus the applications were limited as well as very energy inefficient." Today full color LED lighting is ready for prime time and Mark is positioning LIT to capitalize on this new, versatile and green technology. "Our clients appreciate the capabilities of intelligent LED lighting and our ability to provide plug and play ready products. We are committed to bringing full color LED lighting products to the hospitality and home entertainment markets at a price level that is affordable."

Mark has a Bachelor of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Missouri as well as a Masters in Business Administation from Xavier University, Cincinnati, Ohio. He also was a scholarship swimmer at University of Missouri.

email:mason.murphy@litstyle.com

Mason has been involved in the audio, video and lighting design fields for 20 plus years. His projects have been featured in many publications; Audio-Video interiors, Electronic House, Bespoke Arabian Lifestyles, and many local Nashville media sources. Mason has designed and installed over a thousand home theaters, media rooms, studios, tour coaches and entertainment experiences for Nashville celebrities along with Hollywood "A" list types and corporate clients.  “I always create something that allows people to escape reality and forget about the outside world. I accomplish this by a creative mix of full color LED lighting, sound, and video. This is a perfect recipe for ambiance and entertainment." 

“It all started at age 11 when I started tearing apart speakers and Christmas lights. My room was always rocking and I had a nice light-show to go with it!”  Six patents later Mason is still dreaming up new innovative designs and experiences.  Mason was one of the pioneers of mixing light and sound in consumer electronic products industry.  His products have been sold in major retailers such as Best Buy, RadioShack, Target, QVC and many other web marketing companies. His illuminated speaker system was the first speaker system to combine LED lighting, color control and sound activation circuitry.  “I wanted to create a light show in the speaker itself; not just another lighting instrument.  LED's offer major energy savings, emit very little heat, are fully intelligent; thus they can change color with a push of a button or can be programed. They are a great design tool.”

Mason is currently working on bringing full color LED's to the home and retail space to accent the décor and branding.  “It’s like the new high tech paint; you can change the color of a wall or space at any time! Color has an affect on our senses and the moods that we all experience everyday; with full color LED technology we can have any color at anytime creating a lifestyle experience that affects our mood and well being.  With full color LEDs it’s the best of both worlds" 

Mason resides in Nashville with his wife Laurie, son Patrick and 2 crazy cats Puddy and Tiger.
