Lighting Options
Lighting design is sometimes overlooked due to its subtlety, but it has an essential impact on a home's overall aesthetic. Instead, most homeowners focus on paint colors and flooring choices before considering how lighting could change the look and feel.
But the right lighting choices make quite a difference in the level of sophistication of a home. It starts with layering different lighting and using light settings, such as dimming, to set the perfect mood for the moment.
Lighting options include:
- Downlights
- Lamps
- Linears / Lightbars
- Chandeliers
- Under-cabinet Lighting
- Tunable Lighting
- Dimmers
- Lighting Controls
Customize Your Design
Most architectural lighting fixtures, from chandeliers to lamps, have customizable finish options to match the design and aesthetics of your home. Finishes range from gold, black, or crystal, and fixtures also vary in size.
Additional customization options exist if you pair lighting fixtures with home lighting control, such as Lutron. For example, you can determine if you'd like tiny buttons, large buttons, or sliders. Then, replace complete rows of light switches in your home with simple yet elegant keypads to reduce clutter.
Another advantage of lighting control, such as Lutron, is that you can customize scenes throughout your home. Scenes are groups of lights that take action together. For instance, at bedtime, you may want all of the lights in your kitchen to turn off except one. Program these actions into a scene called "Bedtime." Then, when you're ready for bed, instead of walking around, turning off several lights, and turning on the one you want, you press one button, and all of that happens in synchronized coordination.
Add New Dimension
Pairing a custom architectural lighting fixture with dimmers or tunable lights adds a new dimension to your home's design. Dimmers and tunable lights create contrast and set the room's tone. Dimming paired with warmer-colored lights, for instance, creates a very calming aesthetic, perfect for an evening of relaxation. The ability to adjust a light's brightness and color is a new dimension only sometimes considered when discussing home design.
