Light for your bedroom

When designing your bedroom, lighting plays an important role in creating the perfect ambiance for restful nights and lazy mornings. Opt for bulbs with a warm color temperature of around 2700 to 3000 Kelvin to create a cozy and inviting ambiance. For the bedroom pendant lights are a great way to add a touch of elegance and sophistication to your bedroom. Hang them above your bed or in a cozy nook for a stylish and functional lighting solution. If possible remember to use dimmer switches that allow you to adjust the brightness of your lights according to your mood! Dimmable table lamps are also great contributors to setting the mood.

Light for your living room

The living room offers countless lighting possibilities. Use an overarching ceiling light as a base and supplement with other lights that match your lifestyle. Consider a floor lamp for reading or a small spotlight for a bookshelf. Wall lights can be decorative and make a statement. Avoid lamps that shine downwards, as they make the room seem smaller. Illuminate various areas, including corners and ceilings, with warm, soft amber-hued lights rated below 3300 kelvin. Choose a variety of lighting pieces that contribute to the overall atmosphere.

Light for your kitchen

The brightness of the light is an essential factor to consider as it affects the overall ambiance of the kitchen. You'll want to ensure that the lights are bright enough to provide ample lighting for cooking and food preparation. This type of lighting provides bright and clear illumination, enhancing both functionality and ambiance. When it comes to color temperature use white lights with a range of 3000-5000 Kelvin, also known as "cool white". This type of lighting provides bright and clear illumination, enhancing both functionality and ambiance.

Understand the scale of light temperature

Kelvin is a unit of measurement that determines the color temperature of light sources. It's an essential factor to consider when choosing the right lighting for your space, as it influences the ambiance and functionality of the area. Knowing the Kelvin rating of a light source can help you select the appropriate lighting for your needs.
