15 Tips for Successful Home Lighting
  • Design lighting layout for all the rooms in your home: Before you proceed with buying any lighting fixture or accessory. First, sit down to plan.

Decide on the activities you intend to do in these rooms and the kind of decorations to be done before scheming your lighting plan. To ease your task, hire the services of professional interior decorators.

  • Choose a lighting focal point: There should be a central source of lighting in every room.

This fixture may be any of the following sconces, ceiling fixtures, chandeliers, floor lamps, or even track lighting. Check here to get Cotterell lighting services at the best prices.

  • Ensure balance when choosing light fixtures: Keep in mind the size of the rooms before choosing any light fixtures, this helps to avoid a room overshadowed by the fixture or a room where the lighting fixture is too small to be noticed.
  • Layer lighting is preferable in some rooms: experts say having more than a single source of light in rooms like the kitchen is far better than the traditional single light source. Under the cabinet light is an example of layer lighting.
  • Regularly replace old light bulbs: Over time light bulbs wear out due to continued use and this may negatively impact the energy in the room. Regularly change old bulbs with were and more efficient ones.

  • Consider the use of light switches that allow you to regulate the brightness of light bulbs: Some light sources can be too bright in certain situations so make use of dimmer switches to regulate brightness.
  • Consider supporting the focal light source with smaller light fixtures to ensure effectiveness in the room’s lighting.
  • Don’t go for cheap: when choosing your light fixtures don’t make your purchase decision on price alone, rather make your decisions based on energy efficiency and the suitability of the fixture for the room concerned.
  • Consider smart lighting: with the recent advent of technology, it is possible to control the lighting condition in your home with your mobile phone from anywhere. This eases life for you.
  • You can’t afford to leave out your outdoor lighting: You should not be focused only on indoor lighting, you need outdoor lighting for your garden, late-night barbeque with friends, or just to aid night visibility.
  • Regularly change your light fixtures: as the years go by, more energy-effective light fixtures are churned into the market.

To avoid exorbitant utility bills, regularly update your home light fixtures with better ones.

  • The shade covering the light bulb influences light diffusion in the room. You’ll need to balance filtered and unfiltered lights in the rooms.
  • Increase natural light: Sunlight is a natural source of lighting and its usability cannot be overemphasized.

Make use of window blinds that allow you to regulate how much lighting comes into your rooms for better condition.

  • Colour temperature is a defining factor when shopping for light bulbs: Know the type of light the bulb will emit before buying for specific areas in your house.

Warm white bulbs emit yellowish light which is suited for bedrooms and other cozy environments in your home.

  • Lastly, don’t buy light fixtures or bulbs just because they appeal to your aesthetics. Make sure they suit your home needs.
