Lighting is categorized into ambient, task, and accent lighting. Ambient lighting provides overall illumination, task lighting focuses on specific areas for activities, and accent lighting highlights features. Choosing the right type depends on your room's function and desired atmosphere. Consider layering these types to achieve a balanced look.
Lighting is influenced by bulb type, brightness, and color temperature. LED bulbs are energy-efficient and long-lasting. Lumens measure brightness; higher lumens mean brighter light. Color temperature, measured in Kelvin (K), affects mood; warm tones (2700K-3000K) are cozy, while cooler tones (3500K-4100K) suit workspaces.
Lighting is best chosen by considering room size and ceiling height. Calculate the fixture’s diameter by adding the room's length and width (in feet) then converting to inches. For example, a 10x12-foot room needs a 22″ fixture. Ensure it complements your space without overwhelming it.
Lighting is more efficient with LED bulbs and smart controls. LEDs use less electricity and last longer than traditional bulbs. Consider installing dimmers or smart systems to adjust brightness based on needs, reducing energy consumption and extending bulb life.
Lighting is evaluated by CRI to show how colors appear under artificial light compared to natural light. A higher CRI (close to 100) means colors look more accurate and vibrant. For living spaces, aim for a CRI of 80 or above to ensure true color representation.
