Lighting to interior design is like ornaments to a woman. It is the one element that brings out the best of the interior design efforts and sets the room's look, feel and overall ambience. The lighting setup can enhance the size and structure of the rooms. The room's design intensifies when the right amount and type of artificial lighting solution is added to incoming natural light. Choosing the perfect light solution seems interesting, but it takes work.
It would be best if you considered many things before choosing the lighting source for your room. We have listed a few of them here -
- Size of the room - Space and size play an important room. You can make the room feel larger with proper lighting if the room is small. For a larger room, you need to consider various types of lighting sources like accent and task lighting. Light has the power to manipulate and let you alter your room's size, space and structure virtually.
- Type and amount of natural sunlight - The way through which space the natural light enters and the amount of light also play a major role in choosing the lighting sources. In most cases, it will be windows through which the natural lights enter the rooms. You need to check the direction and size of the windows. If the window is on the east side, you will get ample natural light in the morning, so you need artificial lights that will complement the light needs in the evening and night.
- Type of house: The type and space around your home also play a major role in selecting lighting decor. Because the lighting needs of apartments, condos, commercial buildings or independent villas differ, planning needs to be done accordingly.
- Purpose of the room - The purpose and usability of the room matter. For example, if it is a study room, the bright lights do the job. You can use a warm lighting solution if it is a bedroom.
- Mood of the room - The purpose and mood of the room should complement each other. For example, if you want the feel of the room to be warmer, go for hanging lights with reddish or yellowish bulbs. If you wish for your office room to be energetic, have multiple task lights and top lights.
