Natural light sources creates mood and captures the moment
Natural light sources are an important element in bringing out
the best in the color scheme. If light enters through side
windows, a dark ceiling will make the room look gloomy. If the
light comes in at an angle it is wise to paint the floor a pale
color.
Here are ten household helpful hints for natural light sources:
1 Control the light using blinds and curtains, always adapting
it to the needs of every moment.
2 Soften the contrast produced by window and the dark
surrounding wall by focusing artificial light onto the latter.
3 Emphasize the beauty of an especially compelling piece of
furniture by spotlighting it.
4 In work areas the specific lighting must be from the left for
right-handed people and vice versa.
5 The direct light from a hanging lamp must always be below
eye-level, otherwise it will blind us.
6 Use subtle general lighting so that the transition from a
bright area to a dark one is not painful for the eyes.
7 Make sure that the light in a work area is compensated by the
surrounding lighting so that you do not strain your eyes.
8 Use freestanding lamps and floor lamps in spaces where the
furniture's is frequently rearranged, these types of lamps offer
adaptable solutions.
9 A highly reflective surface (the whiter the better) helps to
multiply the light and to diffuse it all over the space.
10 In small rooms pale-colored walls give acceptable lighting. A
darker ceiling breaks the monotony and provides contrast.
Bearing in mind all these factors, you should analyze the
daylight in your house throughout the day and then plan the
artificial lighting.
