Common lighting

The five most common types of lightings we have in our homes are:

• General lighting

• Decorative lighting

Having a good combination of all these depending on the styles that suit your home interior, we can create a beautiful environment in our home.

1. Natural Day Lighting

There’s no alternative for Natural day light. One of the most important parameters to own a home would be its ability to light itself by letting the natural light in. The design, placement of doors, number of windows, glass walls and spacious interiors all contribute to naturally well lit homes.
If your home is already not well lit, naturally, there are options to add additional windows or glass walls. If you don’t have such provisions, choose alternate lighting options.

2. General Lighting

The ideal way to light up any house is through natural and artificial light. With the availability of natural light during the daytime, there is no need for artificial lighting and it’s only required post-evening.

The best ways to artificially light up your rooms is to:

• Make sure there is an equal distribution of light everywhere
• Uniform vision should be felt all over
• Make sure no corner is left dark

Whereas, with the dining room being a space to relax and bond with people over food and beverages, apart from the regular spotlight, a relaxing light helping in creating the perfect atmosphere for people to connect would also be ideal. The lighting in the bedroom needs to be designed thoughtfully so that it can create a serene and calm atmosphere for resting and peaceful sleep.
