Top tips for interior lighting

22nd June 2021

Lighting features are one of the most important elements of interior design. The smallest detail can transform a plain room into somewhere spectacular.

When looking to make interior improvements, many people forget about the influence lighting positioning has on mood and aesthetics. So before you start re-designing your space, read our interior lighting tips. 

• Recessed fixtures

Look to emphasise spaces in your room with hidden light sources. Recessed fixtures are perfect for rooms with low height because they’re mounted into the ceiling space.

• Multilevel lighting

Having multiple levels of lighting is a modern trend in design. Having lighting in upper, middle, lower and inner levels divides space into functional zones.

• Positional lighting 

Consider building your lighting into the walls, floor and ceiling to create different atmospheres to match your mood. Low lighting with spotlights and LED strips creates a sense of cosiness, whilst chandeliers create drama.

• Colour temperature

When looking at decorative lighting, colour temperature depends on the materials and function of the light. Some rooms suit warm colours for a natural look, like in the bedroom. Whilst bathrooms, kitchens and accent lighting suits white bulbs with cool shades.
