Lights are vital to any home. Do it wrong and your house will be entirely dull. So, if you’ve been looking for ways to create that ultimate architectural design of yours, here are some of the refined ideas for you.

Statement Lighting 

Aside from playing a practical role in your home, a lighting design should be able to enhance the aesthetics. A beautiful pendant hanging dexterously over a staircase can be utilized for making a bold statement.  For instance, installing three or more copper pendants can help make your dining room/table feel more intimate and add a contemporary feel to the interiors.

The Bedtime Reading New Looks

Ordinarily, placing a couple of lamps on your bedside cabinets is the default option to many. Planning the lighting design from the onset of a self-build or renovation project offers you the perfect chance to do something quite unique.

Using low glare LED lighting to frame your bed and hanging elegant pendants on both sides of the bed are great ideas. The lights will brighten up the headboard, splash light on the cupboard fronts, and pinpoint the end of your bed to create an exceptionally cozy bedroom.

Think Backlit Splashbacks

The Splashbacks lighting technique is truly a talking point in the current world. Backlight your in-frame slab & shaker kitchen with LEDs for an exquisite yet subtle effect.

Shed Light on Your High Ceilings

It can be a daunting task trying to light spaces featuring high/vaulted ceilings. Most often pendant lights are unable to direct light upwards to the ceiling. That’s why you need LED strip up lights to cast a soft glow & make an attractive feature of the surface above.

Go for Clever Accent Lighting

A good lighting scheme makes the interiors of your home to become sufficiently warm. Accent lighting makes your inbuilt shelving more visible and draws attention towards the open plan space and the colorfully illuminated artworks.

Consider Layered Light

A good lighting scheme features layers of beautiful light–i.e. task, accent– (for highlighting features), as well as ambient lighting. This design idea is important, particularly in the kitchenette diner.

Get the spotlights to the kitchen. The beams will provide task lighting to your kitchen island, which will uplift your kitchen and breathe some class into its overall design.

The Power of Integrated Lighting

For sometimes now, integrated lighting is making a big entry into the lighting arena. Since their entry into the market, they’ve found their ways into the modern kitchen, bathroom, and cabinets. So, if you want to illuminate your vanity unit or mirror, go for integrated lighting—they’ll lend a soft glow to your home.

How About Illuminated Treads?

Stairways & the circulation space are difficult to light. However, with illuminated treads, you can achieve the impossible. For instance, positioning spotlight lights above the treads can be a nice option for kitchen nocturnal visits. Alternatively, you can illuminate each tread — it’s one of the best ways you can use to make a big statement of your stairway.

Roof Lanterns

You can count on large roof lanterns to illuminate your dining tables. This will bring natural light flooding and give a pleasing symmetry.

Recessed Light Can Work Like Magic

If you’re a fan of minimalist schemes, then wall lighting can be a fussy addition. And if you want more contemporary interiors, go for recessed LED strips.
