Bright Idea
Let's brighten your week with an illuminating talk about home lighting! Good lighting can make a huge difference in any room. Picking the perfect hue sets the mood, while placement can highlight your favorite spots. This guide will help you make designer-worthy decisions for every room in your home. Don't underestimate the power of great lighting!
Designers swear by 'soft white' in the 2700k to 3000k range for that cozy, inviting vibe. And seriously, dimmers everywhere – mood-setting magic at your fingertips!
Placement is key when hanging lights. For chandeliers and pendant fixtures, ensure the bottom is 30-36 inches above any furniture. Sconces should be placed 60-72 inches from the floor. Start with the lower range for lower ceilings and in the higher range if not a little more for taller ceilings.
Light up your life! Ambient lighting is a must-have, so mix up your spaces with multiple lighting options. Big rooms deserve it all—sconces, table lamps, and floor lamps.
Lighting is the unsung hero of home decor. Just like furniture, the right fixtures can make or break your space. So, choose wisely and spend a bit more—it's a bright investment!
