Choosing the right kind of LED light for each part of your home can be quite a challenge. Every room has a different personality, and it is only fair to pick the appropriate lighting for every individual room in your home. Here are five tips that can help you select the perfect lighting for different parts of your home.

1. Lighting for Living Room: This is the most frequented area of the house and the lighting in this section should be perfect, if not controlled. All your guests, friends and family always gather here to catch up on things. This is a place to relax and unwind with your loved ones. You don’t want the lighting to be too bright to overwhelm you, or too dull to make you feel uncomfortable. You can use adjustable spotlight lamps and direct it towards artwork hangings on the walls. This light can be used to reduce the glare on your TV. You can also install 3-way LED lamps for this space in your house. Add more drama to the living room by adding string lights across the drapes or hallway and installing an enormous chandelier in the centre of the room.

2. Lighting for Dining Room: Did you know the right kind of lighting could affect your mood for appetite? Therefore, the lighting in this room is of particular importance. You definitely do not want to put lights that are way too bright, as that will totally kill the mood. Although extremely dim lights also might dull the spirits of the room. This is a place where people come together to eat scrumptious meals and share conversations; no one wants to doze off right? So, while choosing the lights for your dining space go for bright LED chandeliers rather than plain old LED tube lights. LED bulbs for chandeliers or wall-mounted lamps are available in many different colours.

3. Lighting for Kitchen: A kitchen is a place we often go to after waking up. Installing some edgy neon lights along the edges of the cabinets and counters can instantly wake you up. You can also pick an overhead fixture with dimmable features so that the lighting can be adjusted as per your need. The LED BR bulbs are an excellent choice to light up the kitchen. The lights in this space should be lively and bright during the early hours of the day when you are stirring up a meal. You can keep it dim during the day, and in the evening you can add more lights in the background to set the mood.

4. Lighting for Bedroom: To create a calm and relaxed atmosphere, use dimmer lights and refrain from installing extreme white LED tube lights. The dim yellow lights in this room will help you fall asleep quicker. If you like to read at night, place a reading lamp on your bedside that emits blue or neutral light. The white LED light may not be a great choice, as it will reflect a glare when it touches the page. Try out different colours of reading lamp bulbs before you choose the one you like the best.

5. Lighting for Bathroom: You can use bright lights in your bathroom, as that will help you take a good look at yourself in the mirror. Never miss any spot while shaving or while tweezing your eyebrows! A beautiful bright LED light over the bathroom mirror will work just fine. Other than that, you can also install an overhead retrofit fixture above the shower so that it wakes you up in the morning. You can also install an adjustable dimmer light in here for the time when you have guests around, to create a classy and ambient setting.

These are the five helpful tips that will guide you while you decide on the lighting setup for different corners of your home. The right light can make all the difference in your home décor. You can either visit a retail store or shop for lights online as per your convenience. Explore and experiment with a variety of lights to create an ambient environment in the interiors of your home. You will be amazed at how the right lighting can create such a huge impact on the visual appeal of your home interiors.
