The Power of Colours
The Power of Light
Lighting can have a direct effect on your well-being and psyche. Different interior lighting can produce different tones and levels of brightness. It is important to think about where the light will be used before buying. Different lighting brightness and tones are recommended for different rooms in your home.
Set the tone: Start by creating a combination of cool white or warm white lighting. They allow you to choose between cost ambient lighting for relaxing or productive lighting for working.
As a brief overview, here are the most important rooms to consider:
Living Room
Use a warm shade of white in the living room. This creates a relaxing ambient lighting, creating a feel of calmness and optimism.
Office
In contrast to warm colors, cool white tones ensure attention and efficiency. Use cooler tones in your office or workplace to increase productivity.
Dining Room
Warm colors work great above the dining room table. Color rendering (the quality of the light) should be good for this choice of lighting.
Bedroom
A warm white lighting tone creates a cozy bedroom. You can use this lighting for the main light and bedside lamps. Cool tones can be used in the wardrobe or at the desk.
Bathroom
Start your day off right with good lighting around your mirror. Choose a light with the right tone and a high CRI value.
