Lighting is the most underrated tool in interior design. If your space feels “cold” or “flat,” it’s likely because you’re relying too much on a single overhead light.
- The “Rule of Three”: Every room should have at least three light sources at different heights—overhead, eye-level (lamps), and low-level (floor spots).
- Warm Lumens Only: Switch out “Daylight” bulbs for “Warm White” (2700K) to create a cozy, candle-lit atmosphere.
- Backlighting Art: Place a small LED puck light behind a canvas or a large floor plant to create dramatic shadows and depth.
- Battery-Powered Sconces: Add sophisticated wall lighting without the need for an electrician by using remote-controlled puck lights.
