Lighting can make or break a room. A room that’s overly bright or dim can give you and your guests an unpleasant experience and may undermine the visual impact of your furniture and decor. To shed some light on this vital home element, we came up with three brilliant ways to successfully illuminate your living space.
Determine The Room’s Purpose
The appropriate lighting for a room should be determined by its very purpose. For example, brighter lights would serve better in a kitchen rather than a living room or study, which are places that require more dimmer and focused arrangements. Also, try to pinpoint the areas that need emphasis in a room. A kitchen counter and an office desktop are a couple of significant places additional light would be needed.
Have Diverse Light Sources
A successfully lit room is made up of a diverse set of light sources. In most cases, it should not be your goal to light up every inch of the room. Patches of darkness can offer an invaluable sense of depth, as well as a less strenuous environment for you and your guests. Try to focus on defining certain patches of a room with several localized sources and be mindful of how natural light can come into play.
Use Dimmers
Dimmers are essential for any living space. Depending on your mood, time of day, or current activity, their brightness can be adjusted to grant a unique illumination for each room. We recommend wiring every room’s primary light source with a dimmer. Not only will it preserve the overall life of each bulb, it will yield a more pleasant and unobtrusive experience for you and your guests. Also, they are excellent energy savers compared to standard, non-adjustable light sources.
