Lighting in the home


Getting a well lit home is one of the keys to making your home a comfortable place and creates a different atmosphere in each of your rooms.


In fact, a mistake in lighting can completely spoil all your efforts in the decoration. To ensure that this does not happen notes and follow each of the following tips:

- Analyze the amount of natural light in space, its intensity and mode of distribution in space: The places of work (desks, cooking area, lockers, etc…), that are not properly lit must be 'covered' by artificial light sources.


- Artificial light can completely change the look of a room, so you should take into account the capacity of each type of light to acclimate spaces: Dim lighting for intimate places, romantic or relaxing, white light for work areas and study, intermediate light to walkways.

- You can create focus of attention in the room illuminating specific points of the decoration as a work of art or furniture.

- Beware of overly light stay it can lead to eyestrain and headaches. Illuminate only insofar as necessary each of the corners of the room.

- The colors also affect the perception of light: A darker colors, more light.

- Some lamps can also cause the light to spread to a greater or lesser extent in space, so we must learn to choose them based not only decoration but also the characteristics of space.

- Finally, the mirrors are also a good way to spread the light, so a strategic location can serve to make clearer and larger spaces.
