Good Lighting For Homes And Gardens

Introduction

The key to good lighting is good lighting.

Outdoor Lighting

Outdoor lighting should be bright enough to see where you are going, what you are doing and what is around you. It should also be able to light up the area so that it’s easy for others to see you. If there is no outdoor lighting in your home or garden, then this can cause problems when walking through dark areas at night time.

Outdoor lights should be positioned at eye level so that they do not shine directly into people’s eyes when they walk past them but still provide adequate illumination on the ground below them (and any other areas).

Indoor Lighting

Indoor lighting is just as important as outdoor lighting. The right indoor lighting can make a room look bigger, feel more inviting and create the perfect ambiance. Lighting should be indirect (not direct) and consistent throughout your home – from the kitchen to the bathroom to your child’s bedroom.

The style of your house will dictate how you want to use light in each room; for example:

  • A modern home may have minimal furniture with lots of open space between pieces, so less light would be needed than in a Victorian-style house where there are many pieces of furniture grouped together creating darker areas within each room.
  • If you have high ceilings then adding chandeliers can brighten up corners where there isn’t much natural light coming through windows or skylights above them.”

Good lighting means using the right kind of light for the situation, at the right time and place, with enough intensity and color to be effective while also being energy-efficient. This can be achieved through careful selection of fixtures or controls that produce the desired effect — such as an accent light in a hallway or kitchenette — but also by making sure there are no unnecessary bulbs burning away electricity when they’re not being used (like those found on stairways).

Conclusion

Good lighting is important for every home and garden. It can make your home feel more comfortable and welcoming, as well as add to its overall aesthetic value. The key to good lighting is good lighting–finding the right type of light for each room and area that needs illumination. Once you’ve gotten started on this process, though, it becomes easier with each new purchase or installation!
