Maximizing Lighting at Home

HOUSE no longer feel comfortable if the selection of lighting in it was wrong. Lighting in every room in your residence should be created on the basis of good lighting.

Adjust the lighting in the home are things that must be thought out carefully. The pattern of correct and optimal lighting will create a flurry of activity at the house to be comfortable. Proper room lighting can also give the appearance of warm and calm to any room.

However, plan lighting in the house was easy bother. Easy if we follow the motto "from light", no matter how adequate or not that light to illuminate our activities.

Difficult as it turns out that there is activity at home is very diverse and each requires a different type of light. As is known, the lighting in a building consisting of two types, namely natural lighting and artificial lighting.

Natural light is very beneficial for us all. Just imagine if the house without the entry of sunlight. Definitely occupancy will be very dark, dank, and musty. Also very wasteful to use lights all day.

However, sometimes the heat of the sun that comes into the house was overpowering. Especially the hot sun in the afternoon. To be able to make a light in the house to be optimal and in accordance with the needs, of course there is the trick.

If proper planning, the exit light is optimal, and the edges can make us feel at home. Conversely, inappropriate light can make our eyes tired quickly. However, do not be afraid, everything can be solved fairly easily.

Lucy Martin author of The Lighting Bible that was domiciled in London, England, trying to provide solutions. The first suggestion that was brought up Martin is for use of available light. "Do not darken the window with the addition of other materials in large quantities," he said.

"If you end up using artificial lighting, to minimize the light from the lamp on the ceiling is the current trend. Use it, but it must be frugal. If you only get the light coming from above, always cover your room, "he added, as quoted by the Telegraph.

According to Martin, the key to create a light house was made a sort of layer or layers. Light coming from the floor, walls, and the table surface creating texture effects that can brighten a room.

Splashes of light on the wall that he would like mentioned, like "skinning" the room just like opening a banana skin. To make it perfect, you must increase the width of floodlight beam is measured in degrees and placed on the side of a container.

A wide angle would "flood" light on the wall so that adds a very satisfying effect. The bathroom can be more beautiful to illuminate the wall behind him. While a kitchen can look more spacious by tilting the table so that the holder can shine the light surface. Lighting for the living room can be more dramatic when the lamp is placed in the hollow walls and shelves of homemade thereby creating luxurious effect.

Lighting scheme should eliminate the corners that look off and make space more attractive. The basic principle in the distribution of power allocation for the lamp is, allocate greater resources in ruanganruangan in which there are many aktivitas.Pembagian allocation of these resources will help in the selection of type of lamp (bulb) that will be placed. Energy saving lamps, like fluorescent or compact fluorescent (CFL) can be an option.

After the division of power to each room, have a distribution group (grouping) lamps. For example, in the dining room that blends with the kitchen can be grouped into three groups lamps. Pendant lamp (chandelier) as the main lighting and spot lighting as an accent light in a wall niche or artwork, and lighting for work area that is usually mounted under the cabinet hanging, kitchen set. Each group was represented by a single lamp socket. Thus it will be easier arrangements.

The ideal to set the lights is to use a five-amplifier circuits that controlled the main switch by the door. If you think it's annoying, a simple way to tidy it up is by replacing ordinary lamps with LED (light emitting diodes). This light type uses little energy, but the intensity of light that comes out bigger. And more importantly, no heat LED lights so you can put them in places where the heat is not desirable as kitchen cabinets.

Long-shaped LED strip can be attached to the kitchen table or shelf display. Meanwhile, LED lights are more flexible can be used in bedrooms so your habit to read at night can terlampiaskan.Dalam adjust the lighting, of course there is prohibition.

Of whom do not make a dazzling lighting. If the light used to use big watts, certainly can cause glare. In addition, the glare can also be due to white light on a white field and bouncing.

Therefore, we recommend that if the walls in the white house do not immediately direct the lighting to the wall. Besides, should not use one switch for many lights. You could use a lot of lights in one room, but try not to use a single switch. Try one switch to operate at most four lights.

If more than that, it is wasteful of energy because the unused lights will come on. And another thing, do not use the house lights that are not appropriate. This causes the light effects that should look good will become bad because of blocked light size is too big.
