In interior design, lighting<\/a> plays a crucial role. The right lighting affects the perception of the space, the atmosphere, the style, and generally the pleasantness and livability of a room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To properly position the lights<\/strong>, you must consider several factors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First of all, the amount and source of natural light<\/strong>: is the room well-oriented for the best use of sunlight? How many windows or French doors are there? At what hours of the day does it receive more natural light?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Secondly, the room size <\/strong>and the distribution of space must be taken into consideration: in an L-shaped room, for example, the illumination must be designed to illuminate both wings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thirdly, it is crucial to think about the activities that take place in a room<\/strong>: in addition to central lighting, like a ceiling lamp or floor lamp, one can place lights that illuminate specific portions of space, such as the hob in the kitchen, a reading corner in the living room or the desk in the study.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lastly, in designing the lighting for your home, you have to imagine the different needs<\/strong> you can have at different times of the day: for family evenings watching TV you may want a soft, warm light<\/strong> while for a dinner with friends, you might prefer a brighter light<\/strong>. For these different functions, it is preferable to have more spotlighting and different kinds of lamps (for example, a chandelier, a floor lamp, and one or two lampshades) to be turned on or off depending on the occasion. A particular focus deserves the so-called courtesy lights placed in transit areas such as the entrance, corridor, or hallway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Designer lamps: what\u2019s your style?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

What lighting <\/strong>is best for a modern house<\/strong>? And for a classic house? Not only does the lighting<\/a><\/span> need to be in harmony with the furniture and the style of the house, but it must also enhance it and add a distinctive flair. After all, your home personality comes from accessories and details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The contemporary design <\/strong>offers an extensive range of lighting solutions. Those who love iconic and timeless objects can choose among the great classics. Examples are the Arco floor lamp<\/a><\/span> by Achille Castiglioni (1962), the Nesso by Artemide<\/span> <\/a>(1967), and the Twiggy floor lamp<\/a><\/span> by <\/a>Foscarini <\/a><\/span>(2006).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Those who love to dare and choose creative and unusual solutions can consider the amazing lamps by Mogg<\/a><\/span>, Moooi<\/a><\/span>, Cappellini<\/a><\/span>, and Nemo<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
