Many people think that lighting is just a means of seeing, but in the world of interior design, lighting is the “brush” with which you paint the details of your home and highlight its identity. Proper lighting can make a small room look spacious, and a normal space look like a luxurious painting.<\/p>

Here are the most important strategies to transform your home into a masterpiece using the art of light distribution:<\/p>

1. Adopt a “layers of lighting” (Layering) strategy<\/p>

The biggest secret for professional designers is not to rely on a single light source. For a room to look luxurious, it must consist of three layers:<\/p>

  • General lighting (Ambient): This is the basic lighting (such as a chandelier or suspended ceiling) that gives the room a balanced brightness.<\/li>
  • Task lighting (Task Lighting): Focuses on places where you need focus, such as office lighting, above the kitchen counter, or next to a mirror.<\/li>
  • Aesthetic lighting (Accent Lighting): This is an “artistic” touch; Such as using spotlight to highlight a specific painting, or hidden lighting (LED Strips) behind the library or under kitchen cabinets to highlight design details.<\/li><\/ul>

    2. Manipulate shadows to add depth<\/p>

    A masterpiece depends not only on bright light, but on contrast. Try directing the lighting toward the walls (Wall Washing) rather than directly toward the ground. This technique gives the walls a visual texture (Texture) and makes the room appear warmer and deeper.<\/p>

    3. Use color “temperatures” intelligently<\/p>

    Warm lighting (Warm White – 2700K to 3000K) is the key to feeling luxurious and comfortable in living rooms and bedrooms, it makes the place “welcoming”. Daylighting (Cool White) is best confined to work areas, kitchens, or bathrooms to ensure clarity.<\/p>

    4. Neon and hidden lighting (LEDs) as a decorative element<\/p>

    Using LED strips hidden under the edges of furniture, or in the corners of gypsum ceilings, creates a dramatic effect called “floating lighting” (Floating Effect). This simple technique gives the impression that the furniture or ceiling is freed from the constraints of gravity, which is a very modern trend in interior design.<\/p>

    5. Choose lighting units that express your personality<\/p>

    A chandelier is not just a source of light, but a “piece of jewelry” for a room. Choose lighting units with a distinctive artistic or engineering character. Often times, a single lighting unit with a bold design is enough to transform a room from a silent space into a vibrant space.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
