How To Light Your Home: Tips To Create The Ultimate Cozy Glow

When in 1879, Thomas Edison created the light bulb that invention enabled us to have a better quality of life. It enabled us to work in the evenings or have a social life in more pleasant surroundings. Now the choice of light bulbs is overwhelming, and we can choose from thousands of different bulb varieties.


What light bulbs to choose?


We often buy the brightest bulb because we assume it’s going to give us what we need. We may need one bight light fixture in a room, but we probably never going to use it. Simply because it gives harsh and unpleasant light. If you want to create an intimate atmosphere and conserve energy, don’t buy 75-watt bulbs. Of course, it’s useful to have some stronger bulbs in your home, but they look better installed as ceiling light fixtures than decorative floor lamps.


It’s easy to notice mood lighting in a furniture store, but it’s way harder to replicate the same result at your place. That’s why we prepared some suggestions for you to make it feel snugger at home. Mood lighting doesn’t only look fabulous, but it also has a positive influence on your well-being.

Tips and tricks for perfect lighting at home


One central lamp in the room will always ruin the ambiance. Don’t rely on one ceiling lamp to create a luxurious atmosphere. Make sure to buy at least two decorative lamps and place them in several parts of the room. Evening light should give you that glowing and unwinding feeling. Isn’t that the first thing that comes to your mind when you think of a snug evening at home?

Luxury lighting for a bedroom


Lighting in every room is essential, and the bedroom is no different. We all spend most of our evenings in that room. Mood lighting will put us in a relaxing mood and prepare us for a peaceful sleep. It’s important to have task lighting such as table lamps on nightstands. They not only make the decor of the room but are also very practical. It’s also good to add some embellishing lamps next to a dresser. They will help to get ready in the morning. Accent lights are excellent to showcase photographs or art in your room. Let’s not forget about ceiling light fixture. For a bedroom, you can choose a luxurious chandelier or other dimmable light fixture.


Which light color to choose?

Studies proved that blue light could affect the secretion of melatonin and confuse our internal clock. That’s why it’s better to choose a light in warm tones.
