Simple tips for ideal lighting in your home

Lighting is increasingly seen as a key tool in the design of personal, business, or public spaces, and for good reason. Proper lighting can highlight a building’s architectural details, create atmosphere, and optimize functionality. Interior designers, architects, and lighting designers often recognize how light uniquely defines the perception of space. Each room has specific requirements that depend on its function, size, and decor style. Below, we present how to choose the optimal lighting for different parts of the home.

Living room and bedroom

The living room is often the focal point of any home, so lighting here needs to be layered. A main light fixture like the Cluster pendant lamp provides even illumination, while its simple design allows it to integrate into a variety of interior styles. This lamp provides enough light for general activities, while its warm light creates a cozy atmosphere.

For additional layers of light, floor lamps like the DIXI floor lamps offer flexibility as they can be easily moved around depending on your needs. This type of lighting often uses adjustable lights that allow you to highlight specific areas of the room, such as artwork or reading nooks.

The bedroom needs soft, subdued lighting that encourages relaxation. A table lamp like the Kugla is ideal for a bedside table. Its warm light reduces eye strain when reading, while its minimalist design ensures that it won’t overwhelm the space. Wall lamps, like the Copper Sammy Z or Ball, are practical for small rooms where every inch counts, while also allowing for more precise lighting, for example for reading in bed.

Kitchen, hallway and bathroom

The kitchen requires technically precise lighting. Main functional lights, such as the VOH-N surface-mounted lamp, provide strong and even light, which is essential for worktops. This type of lighting often uses LED technology due to its durability and energy efficiency. Additional strips under kitchen cabinets can be used to illuminate work surfaces, thus improving safety during food preparation.

Hallways, although often overlooked, play an important role in the first impression of a home. Lighting in hallways needs to be functional, but also aesthetically pleasing. The HANA-N recessed ceiling light provides even light that eliminates shadows, which is essential in these narrow spaces. Also, this discreet lighting does not compete with decorative elements such as mirrors or wall art.

The bathroom is a space with special requirements due to humidity and safety standards. Integrated ceiling lights with IP44 protection, which ensure resistance to moisture, are essential for safety. In addition to the main lighting, wall lamps placed next to mirrors provide even lighting of the face, which is essential for everyday activities such as applying makeup or shaving. Lighting in the home should be functional, adaptable and in harmony with the aesthetics of the space. Every room has its own requirements, and the right choice of lighting fixtures can significantly improve the quality of life of the user.
