Having a good lighting system at home is essential for conveying the right sensations in each room, providing comfort and clarity to ensure the health of your eyes, as well as being a way of enhancing the property and making it more welcoming, for example. However, the type of lighting will vary depending on the room in the house. Find out which lights should be in each type of space, as well as their layout.
Kitchen
In this room, the most important thing is to opt for general lighting in the center of the room, capable of illuminating every corner of the kitchen. In this sense, you could also add small beams of light above the stove, the dishwasher or a specific area where you work regularly.
Living room
The living room calls for soft lighting, don't you agree? However, this should cover the whole room. It's important to position accent lights at certain key points, not only to create more light, but also to make their use more efficient.
Please note that you should not place light points above sofas, armchairs, pouffes or any other resting places.
Bathroom
In the bathroom, you can use two types of lighting: a general light and a task light located on the mirror. You can also use a diffused or indirect light near the mirror, so that your face is illuminated evenly and without excess light.
Bedroom
In the bedroom, invest in a system that allows you to turn off both the main light and the bedside table lights from the bed. But don't forget that the light should be soft and should not be projected directly onto the headboard.
Dining room
Finally, in the dining room, it's best to opt for hanging lamps, so that you can create a task lighting system over your dining area.
