Use the Right Lighting Types to Improve Every Room
Living rooms feel inviting with indoor lighting like pendant lights and floor lamps. Kitchens benefit from bright ceiling spotlights and downlights. Bathrooms combine vanity wall lights with moisture-rated ceiling lights. Bedrooms feel calm with wall sconces or table lamps. Outdoors, a mix of garden lights, outdoor wall lights, and flood lights adds both ambience and security.
Choose the Right Brightness for Comfort and Clarity
General rooms usually need around 100 to 150 lumens per square metre. Kitchens and studies require stronger brightness for task clarity. Bedrooms and living areas work best with dimmable fittings that let you adjust light levels.
Select Colour Temperatures That Set the Right Mood
Warm white between 2700K and 3000K creates comfort in living areas and bedrooms. Neutral or cool white closer to 4000K suits kitchens, laundries, and work zones. Keeping the colour temperature consistent within each room ensures balance.
Add Features That Make Your Lighting Easy to Control
Dimmable fittings allow control over brightness. 3CCT switchable colour gives flexibility to select the warmth you prefer. Motion sensors improve convenience in driveways and entryways, while smart controls let you set schedules and room scenes.
Create an Energy Smart Lighting Plan for Your Whole Home
LED fittings are the most efficient choice for the whole home. Using task lighting instead of over-lighting entire rooms saves energy, and adding sensors or timers to outdoor lighting prevents unnecessary power use.
Plan Safe Installation With Professional Help Where Needed
A licensed electrician must install hardwired fittings such as ceiling lights, and downlights. Portable lamps and plug-in lights can be added without professional help.
