A home is not just rooms and walls. It is also defined by how you, your friends & family feel inside it. Let’s look at five ways in which you can creatively light up the different areas of your home and improve its look and feel.
Chill & Relax with Perfect Lights in the Bedroom
Usually, you start and end your day in your bedroom. Hence, bedroom lighting must promote a sense of relaxation. For this, you should use lights with warm colour temperatures like soft yellows or warm whites. For adding a modern touch to your bedroom, you can use adjustable wall sconces. These are perfect for directing light on the bed while reading. You can also dim them when sleeping. A touch lamp on your nightstand is a great idea to enhance the brightness and convenience in your bedroom.
Layer Warmth with Style in the Living Room
From relaxation to entertainment, a lot of activities take place in the living room. Hence, in living rooms, you should layer different types of lights. You can pair the overhead ceiling lights with table & floor lamps. Lamps placed in strategic corners add to the general lighting and act as a statement piece. You can also place modern lighting fixtures like LED strip lights along the TV unit or shelves to accentuate the architectural features of your home.
Set the Mood for Meals with Dining Room Lights
You can enjoy your meals a bit more by ensuring perfect lighting in the dining area. You can hang a pendant light or a designer chandelier right above the dining table. It will ensure proper lighting and will also make a beautiful focal point. To complement the main fixture, you can use wall sconces or buffet lamps, as well. Always go for dimmable fixtures to be able to adjust the lighting for different occasions like bright family dinners and intimate gatherings.
Illuminate Your Hallway
Do not overlook your hallway lighting. Good lighting in hallways is essential for safe movements throughout the house, as well as to create a good first impression on your guests. You can use wall-mounted lights or recessed lighting to brighten your pathways. Motion-sensor lights can be used near stairs or at the entrance to safeguard your late-night kitchen trips. Also, you can add
decorative wall lights to make your hallway sync with the home’s decor and make it more than just a passageway.
Get Functional and Flair in the Kitchen
The kitchen mostly requires good practical lighting to facilitate tasks like cooking, cutting, and washing. Hence, use good quality ambient lighting like recessed ceiling lights for general illumination throughout the kitchen. Use under-cabinet LED lights to light up the countertops to make your work safer. You can also hang pendant lights above the kitchen islands for creating focal points and getting perfect task lighting. This will enhance the look and functionality of your kitchen.
