Lighting is given the least importance when homes get an upgrade during the renovation process. There are so many lighting solutions in the market, each having its own characteristics. So, what type of light should you install in your haven? Well, that depends on the size of the space and the type of room you want to illuminate. Read through the Blog to learn what type of luminaire will add an extra ‘oomph’ to the ambiance of your homes.

Focus On General Lighting 

Generic lighting is used as a primary source to ‘light up' your room and is basically a dealbreaker, and hence the choice is important. The purpose is simple, the room needs to have sufficient lighting for residents to move around and conduct everyday activities. Depending on the size of the space, the number of lighting fixtures to be installed may vary. However, the key is to achieve uniformity and make sure every nook-&-corner is well lit, to ensure maximum safety. Types of fixtures that are used for this purpose include; 

• LED Tube Light 
• LED Light Bulbs 
• LED Downlights 
• Wall Mounted Fixtures 
• Chandeliers

Make Your Task Lighting Counts 

As the name suggests, task lighting provides illumination where you perform certain activities. It is where the spotlight should be, in order to comfortably carry out the task, without any strain on the eye. One may want sufficient lighting in the cozy reading corner, or the spot where the microwave is in your kitchens, or even hidden lights in your cupboard. The lighting should be comfortable and not too bright either, as the focal point is on a rather smaller area, instead of the whole room. Types of fancy fixtures that serve the purpose; 

• Downlight 
• Pendant Lighting 
• Desk Lamp 
• Vanity lights 
• Under Cabinet Lighting 

Accent Lighting 

Accent lighting is similar, yet different from task lighting. When you want to highlight an ‘object’ in the room, by focusing light onto it, you can use Accent lighting. You may want to add some spotlight to bring out a ‘painting’ suspended in your living room, or draw some attention to the textured wall in the bedroom. Basically, this type of lighting creates an aesthetically pleasing vibe and dramatizes the view. Here’s what you can search on amazon, to create your ‘signature accent look’; 

• Wall sconce
• Track Lighting 
• Recessed Light 
• Wall Lamps 

Smart Indoor & Outdoor Lighting 

Smart Lighting is designed to change the ‘mood of the space’ as per your requirements. Installing Smart Lighting Solutions allows you to manage the brightness settings of the light from a remote location from an app on your phone. You can even set a timer, to dim the illumination, closer to bedtime and to run it at full capacity, during study time. Just at a click on your smartphone, one can change the colors and hues, according to the occasion. Throwing a house party? How about turn-on some disco lights, with shades of purple & red. Organizing a special ‘romantic dinner’ means changing the ambient lighting colors to ‘orange’ or ‘blue’.
