Bedroom lights
July 25, 2008
We do spend a lot of time in our bedrooms. You might find a dark room comfortable while you are asleep, but the lights in the bedroom really matters.
You have to be careful while choosing the lights for your bedroom and their position. Make sure you have enough light to brighten the whole room, and at the same time place them in such a manner that they focus on one particular thing in the room.
When it comes to bedroom, you have to remember whose room it is. The same lighting system is not applicable for everyone. If the bedroom belongs to a senior citizen then the lights has to be bright, as they need more light to see well. For children’s bedroom you need extra light for the place where they will be doing their homework. But for a baby’s nursery, use dimmer lamps. That will allow you to check on your toddler without even waking her up.
Now the question is what kind o light do you want for your room? Ambient lights are one of the most basic and common lighting. They follow the qualities of natural lights. If you have ambient light then make sure that you have a good switch to adjust the light in whichever way you want. Remember, ambient lights have their drawbacks as well. They tend to create a shadow while you work or read with the light behind you.
Task lights are best for your study. But you can also have them in your bedroom beside your bed, instead of a bedside lamp. Since accent lights have the quality to focus things in a room and they are used for that purpose, it is better not to have them in the bedroom unless you have some beautiful artwork and you want them to be focused. If you install this type of lights, make sure you have an additional source of ambience light, so that you have enough light all around the room.
Placing of the light is also important. If the focus of the room is your bed then place down lights near the head of the bed.
Remember, lighting of the room also depends on the size of the room. You do not want your bedroom to look dark because of less light or too bright because of excess of light. Measure the room first and then decide what you want.
