ARRANGE YOUR LIGHTING LIKE A PRO

There are a number of known tips when planning your lighting; you often go with what you know, but by adding some creative solutions you can amplify the interior experience from predictable to extraordinary.
   

UNEXPECTED PLACEMENTS
Try placing lamps in place you wouldn’t normally illuminate, like lighting up the steps in a staircase, or the space of your bookshelves. 
 

HIGHLIGHTING DETAILS
Illuminating specific interior details can create a dynamic ambience, try highlighting a plant, a painting, a sculpture or even the ceiling.
 

THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX
The magic usually happens outside the box; instead of using a standard desk lamp for bedside lighting, try a pendant. Instead of using a pendant to light your staircase, try wall lights.  

FINALLY
Less isn’t always more; rather than using a few strong lights, try using more and gentler light sources.
