Mood Lighting Lighting, the great enhancer for the Arizona home. Whether you are highlighting your southwest landscaping or backlighting your living room there are more than a few choices. Follow these guidelines and reap the rewards.
Light greatly affects the “feel” of a room and has a profound influence on the moods of people sitting in that atmosphere. A room full of florescent lighting is wonderful to read by or do other intricate work but it creates a sterile, clinical feeling which has a harsh affect on its inhabitants. Take time to experiment with different light bulbs available. Each will produce a different color of light as well as intensity. Try one of each, halogen, incandescent or florescent and see which best suits your taste and the mood you are wishing to create.
Each room of your home will require a different intensity to its lighting. Your bathrooms, for example, should be lit brightly as well as your kitchen. However, a small accent lamp with a dim bulb placed in a corner on the counter in either room can create a softer alternative for after cleanup in the kitchen or a luxurious bubble bath at the end of the day.
Over all, your living room should be lit more dimly than your bath or kitchen but you should create many different options for lighting intensity in this room. This will give you bright light when you are cleaning or working in this room and softer light for entertaining guests before or after a great meal.
It's amazing the impact of lighting in a room. A simple dimmer switch can transform a sterile and cold space into something warm and inviting.
Your bedroom should be a place where soft, warm lighting creates a space of relaxation and calm. Most of us like to have a light for reading by the bedside and so, three way bulbs are a perfect answer.
Don’t forget the many choices one has for lighting and fixtures. Floor lamps, track lighting, recessed lighting, table lamps and canister lamps are a few to choose from. Floor lamps come in so many varieties that one can find the perfect piece for a corner of indirect light which provides just enough to bring depth and warmth to any room.
