Lighting is essential to the overall look of your home’s interior. It doesn’t just add life and colour to a living space, but it also affects the people using those spaces.
Different parts of your house will require different types of lighting. The kitchen, for example, is where meal preparation is done. Meal preparation is considered a “close-range” task which means much concentration is needed and therefore task lighting is necessary. At the same time, it’s also important to find kitchen lighting that will give it that free, open, and airy atmosphere. In that case, bright pendant lighting can provide the illumination needed during food preparation. You’ll also do well with ceiling lights that come with microwave sensors.
For the dining room, this will depend on you and your family’s take on mealtimes. Do you love enjoying long conversations after a sumptuous meal? Do you consider the dining room one of the best places for you and your loved ones to bond? If so, you can have warm tones for lighting to set the mood for dinners, simple celebrations, or just long nights of fun conversations over coffee or wine. If you have a round dining table, you can go for oval, circular, or even hexagonal lighting.
The living room, for example, is where you and your family are likely to spend a lot of time, and since it’s a common area, it’s likely that every member of your household will have their own expectations when it comes to lighting. Some might want good lighting for reading, others, more suited lighting that can be dimmed or brightened, and for some, they’ll want lights that not only illuminate but serve as accent pieces themselves. In that case, your living room could use a combination of ceiling lights, floor lamps, table lamps, and a blade ceiling fan with LED light. Even wall sconces can provide excellent ambient lighting for your living room. In addition, pendant lights can serve as lighting and accent pieces at the same time.
A chandelier pendant light is one example of living room lighting that also has that wow factor. You can find this and more from www.OzLighting.com.
