Hey guys! How was your weekend? Great, I hope! In this article we bring you some tips to help you have a well-lit room. You know it makes a big difference the light’s position. If they are in the right position you will have a much better and comfortable place.

Regarding the fixtures and bulbs, there are a few options available on the market. Mind only the fact to not overly bright lighting. You want to create a relaxed atmosphere, not a new Big Bang! Be careful with that.

Localize your light source

Don’t try to light the whole room. It is better to choose some specific spots and share the light throughout the room. Also, picking the right lampshade can make all the difference.

Always add a dimmer

If you use a dimmer you will not only regulate the light according to the time of the day, event, or mood, but you will also care about our planet. They allow you to save energy. Please notice that if you have only one light you will look at your shadow all day long!

Know your bulbs

Do not use fluorescent tubes. Again, do not use fluorescent! Everything looks off. Otherwise, if you use compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFLs) they will be a great addition to your place.

Consider the function

It is very important to know the space that you are about to light. Decorating a kitchen it’s different from decorating a TV room. Never shine the lighting directly to people’s faces, point them at working areas and combine floor lamps, table lamps and down-lights.
