Archive for the ‘Lighting Effect’ Category

As pictured on expression of the word it self, a form or model downlight illumination with light downward direction. Lamp which is supports lighting known as a downlight. While in western countries there, this light is better known by the term recessed lamp (lamps were implanted into the niche).

Downlights installed in the ceiling. The ordinary light usually attached to the surface. This downlights “entry” into the ceiling. To install it we have to punch the ceiling, and put the “house lights” above the ceiling so it does not appear from our view. While the bulbs themselves are not exposed to the entire part-cylindrical cover is generally protected.

Being in the recessed ceiling, the light will be flashed on a triangular downlight (widened downwards). Thus, a space that is using this light, the light is not evenly distributed, there are parts that are brighter and there are parts of a more dim.

Downlights can function as a main light or as a special lighting on certain points (spot light). If it is used for main lighting, certainly needed a lot of lights-up from one light beam angles meet or overlap with other light ray angle (see sketch). Thus there are no dark areas because it is not exposed to light.
Some may think that using downlight for main lighting requires a greater cost than using ordinary light. Yes, this is because if the lights we just installed one of usual, whereas with downlight we need to install couples of lamps.

But the neat form (because the house lights are not visible), and its rays are not evenly distributed but graded, it gives the feel of a room. For decorative reasons, gradations of light effects and dramatic dimensions, especially if its light yellowish color. This is why many people choose downlights to illuminate the living room, family room, porch, or even to be put on the shelves of kitchen set. Looks beautiful and impressive!

Lighting is important. However, lights that are too unusual will not give any touch to the room in your home. Therefore, good lighting is a necessary arrangement so that your mood swings can be controlled better. If you occupy a new home, you should also think about lighting that is suitable for every individual in the home. For couples, reading lights should be placed in the bedroom separately, so each does not interfere each other. For children, put a well-lit lamp in his study. In baby’s room you should install lights that can be set bright and ruination. So if you occasionally check the setting, the baby will not wake up because of the lights. For the elderly, although their eyesight was still good, they still need strong lights in order to perform their activities more safely and comfortably.
Several types of lights below can be your reference so that the atmosphere of space has become more varied.
Overall lights
This type of lamp is usually located in the middle of space and illuminates every corner of the house. Preferred watt sizes were usually very large. Actually, you can add other bright lights in the dining room table. This type of lighting can be dimmed lights side by side with others, so if there were no guests, you can use a dim light.

In the bedroom
If you love reading before bed, put the lights on the side of the mattress. Choose which can be hung on the wall with a rope pull to make it more secure and practical. However, if on your side there is someone else, select a reading lamp that has an adjustable pole. The light can lead to one direction, so as not to disturb others.
Dressing room
Today’s closet has a lot of light sensors that switch on automatically when the closet opened. Prices are expensive wardrobe. One way to make it easier to find clothing is to install lights that can be directed to your wardrobe with a pull rope so it will not disturb other people who are sleeping.
Ornamental or interesting objects
If you’re a fan of antiques or classic paintings, highlight them by installing lights or spotlights small plant at the ceiling. This type of lighting can be adjusted so that the direction of art objects that hang on the wall or in wall shelves will look more dramatic.

A work of art looks more dramatic in the beam of light. Every detail was clear, so “fixing” the eyes to continue to look at him. This is a pride for us if we can display a work of art at home. There was always painting or sculpture, an architectural element that could enhance a room called a work of art. Unfortunately it was, if the element is pretty amazing eyes only for a moment. Highlight the beauty with the help of the light.

Like the game of the wall in this photo. Lights make details more obvious wall. The light from a row of lights on it also created gradations, which adds a dramatic impression. Arts of the wall become more eyes catching. Not just interesting to glance, people might stop for a moment to notice.
