Lighting Design For Your Living Spaces

Living spaces refer to a wide variety of rooms within a home — some of which may be used on a daily basis for casual gatherings with family, a place you spend “me” time, a formal space to spend time with guests, or a space dedicated to a certain activity like a playroom or home theatre. 

 

No matter the specific living space you have in your home, you need a complete lighting design that elevates the space. At The Light House Gallery, our lighting specialists have extensive experience and knowledge to assist you in creating the best lighting design, along with choosing the perfect fixtures for your space.

Diving Into Living Space Lighting

While the look and purpose of your living space can largely vary, the foundation of a complete lighting design is the same for all living spaces. By properly layering lights from these three different lighting types, you can create a well-lit living space that is perfect for all the activities that will be held within it.

Ambient Lighting

Task Lighting

Accent Lighting

Redesigning Your Living Space Lighting

Take a moment to think about what your vision is for the room compared to its current state and what role the lighting in the space plays in all of it.

•  What is the current lighting situation within the bedroom?

•  What is the room currently being used for?

•  Do you feel like the current light is too bright or too dim?

•  What are you wanting to be able to do in the room?

Light Up Your Living Space for Everyone to Enjoy

Ambient Living Space Lighting

Ambient lighting, also known as general lighting, is the fixtures responsible for providing the majority of light within a space and is often centrally located within the room. For most living spaces, ceiling lights such as flush mounts, semi-flush mounts, and recessed lights are the most common ambient lighting fixtures. For formal living rooms and other living spaces, one might also choose a large chandelier to shine ambient light throughout the space. Browse through these lighting fixture types below to find the perfect fit for your space.

Task Lighting for Your Living Space

Choosing the task lighting for your living space is where things get a bit more fun and customizable to fit the specific lighting needs of your space. This is where it is extremely important to identify the different uses of the space for all the members of the family to ensure that the lighting needed is properly placed throughout.

The Light House Gallery is dedicated to providing you the lighting knowledge and fixtures needed to create the perfect, functional lighting design for your living space. Continue reading to learn more about the common types of task lighting fixtures for different living spaces.

GO-GO PENDANT

Pendants

While pendants are not your normal go-to for overhead lighting, they can be a great solution in situations where you are needing to bring your ambient light source down to a lower level such as in bedrooms with high, vaulted ceilings. Contact our lighting experts today to learn more!

Boreal Table Lamp

Lamps

There are a wide variety of lamps that can be used to provide task lighting, especially within living spaces. Whether you are looking for a way to light up a reading nook in the corner or needing to brighten up a workspace at your home desk, lamps offer versatile lighting that is perfect and functional.

Sconces

Another versatile lighting fixture is wall sconces. Sconces that direct the light downward work well as task lights, especially in smaller spaces. Adding wall sconces near seating provides the perfect amount of lighting to read or complete other hobbies, while also allowing you to turn off the ambient light source to set the proper mood.

Accentuate the Little Things

Accent Lighting for Your Living Space

In many living spaces, there are items or areas that you want to make a focal point of the space. A great way to draw attention to things like memorabilia, pictures, artwork, and other items is to highlight them with an accent light.

 

In addition, certain lighting fixtures can act as accents in and of themselves within a room.

Track Lighting

A great type of functional accent lighting for a living space is a track lighting fixture to place spotlights on the desired focal points. This is great for areas that have multiple items or areas you want to accentuate as you can point each of the lights in different directions.

Under Cabinet Lights

Another unique accent lighting option is under cabinet lights. That’s right, they aren’t just for use in the kitchen! Under cabinet lights can be used with shelving and entertainment areas to add the perfect glow and draw wanted attention to these areas within your living space.

Picture Lights

Picture lights are the perfect fixtures to hang above wall art, family photos, and memorabilia to highlight and draw attention to different pieces throughout your living space. With a variety of different styles, you can find the right fixture to fit your space.

Accent Lamps

As the name suggests, accent lamps are a go-to accent lighting fixture within any space, but especially in living spaces. The large variety of looks and styles allow these functional pieces of decor to fit into any type of living space — from a kid’s playroom to a formal living room.
