"To love beauty is to see light" - Victor Hugo
One way to shed some light on the new year is by looking at how we light our rooms. There are so many beautiful choices when it comes to lighting. And putting the right lighting in your rooms can really improve your space and your life!
Here are 3 main types of lighting for your home or office:
1. General/Ambient Lighting refers to the background levels of light in a space, and may include a combination of artificial and natural light sources. Think of ceiling, recessed, or overhead fixtures.
2. Task Lighting illuminates a particular area to help you accomplish tasks more efficiently. This includes reading lamps, pendants, and desk lamps.
3. Accent Lighting is a subtle way to illuminate something to bring attention to it, such as a great piece of art. It's also a way to liven up a space. Some examples are wall sconces, track lighting, LED strips, and color-changing lights.
One of the brands that I carry here at Metro Interiors is called LightArt. They offer so many unique options for all your lighting needs. Read on to learn more about my favorites:
