6 Tips to Improve Your Home's Lighting
1. Hide the source. Except in special circumstances, bare or partially exposed bulbs create glare and an uncomfortable living environment.
2. Dim your lights. All incandescent and halogen lights can be dimmed. If you want to do it yourself, relatively inexpensive dimmers are available at home improvement stores. Dimming can create a more pleasant living environment and saves electricity.
3. Light your walls. Soft illumination of your walls will make a room feel bigger and brighter. But make sure to avoid sharp edges of light on the walls or creating dark ceilings.
4. Light your ceilings. Light bouncing off the ceiling creates good atmospheric lighting in a room and can eliminate harsh shadows on a person’s face. This can make you look healthier and more vibrant and who doesn’t want that?
5. Don’t over light at night. Bright interior lighting after sunset can throw off your biological clock. Low, soft lighting in the evenings provide a feeling of calm making it easier to fall asleep and stay asleep at night.
6. It could be the lighting, not the room. If you have a room in your home you just don’t like, it may be the lighting. There are many lighting options out there and you are sure to find something you enjoy.
