Living room lighting ideas
Lighting is crucial when it comes to the ambiance of the living room, so it’s important to get it right. Use layered lighting to create different moods and interests, and switch between ambient, task, and accent lighting to make sure the lighting scheme offers depth and flexibility. In reality, this looks like a collection of ceiling fixtures, floor lamps, table lamps, and wall lamps.
Bedroom lighting ideas
To create a comfortable and relaxing space to sleep and unwind, bedroom lighting needs to create ambiance whilst also being visually appealing. Aside from maximising natural light, you should install dimmer switches for lights that are overhead. Dimmer switches allow you to create different moods. Think about cleverly-placed lighting, such as wardrobe lamps, under-bed lighting, vanity lighting, and wall-mounted reading lamps – opting for a mixture of ambient, task, and accent lighting will create a room that not only looks and feels good, but can be optimised for tasks.

Stuck between floor lamps or side table lamps? Here’s a quick comparison: Floor lamps can be great for small spaces as they don’t take up surface space. Side tables are perfect for tasks or decorative accents and can be easily turned on and off. Whereas floor lamps are versatile, they come in various heights, styles, and designs. And can be used as statement accessories.
Pendant lighting
Pendant lighting is one of the most popular types of light fixtures. Hung from the ceiling they create points of interest in a room, create ambiance, and are usually aesthetically pleasing. As a general of thumb, if the ceiling is 8 feet from the floor then the pendant light should hang 12 to 20 inches from the ceiling.
