The main types of lighting to consider when you’re planning your indoor lighting include:
- Ambient lighting
- Accent lighting
- Task lighting
Ambient Lighting
The first type of lighting you’ll need to consider in any room is your ambient lighting. This is going to be the main source of light for the space, and should be bright enough to allow you to complete all your main activities in the room. Some popular types of ambient lighting include:
- Recessed lighting
- Pendant lighting
- Chandeliers
Accent Lighting
Once your ambient fixture is picked out, it’s time to add some layers to the room with accent lighting. These are meant to draw attention to details or act as a secondary source of light when you don’t feel the need for your full overhead light. Some great accent lighting choices are:
- Wall sconces
- Table lamps
- Floor lamps
Task Lighting
The final type of lighting to consider is bright task lighting. This is designed to help you accomplish specific tasks, and may not be needed in every room. When choosing task lighting, you can consider utilizing:
- Lamps
- Under cabinet lighting
- Track lighting
