The bedroom is a place for peace and tranquillity. It is an area where you want to relax and be away from the stresses and strains of the world around you. Lighting can be used to create this sanctuary.
When lighting the bedroom, as well as areas of peace, you should also consider providing bright spots for other activities such as reading. By using a contrast of general ceiling lighting and task lighting such as table lamps or floor standing lamps or wall lightswith the usage of dimmer switches, you can achieve this. If the bed is the focal point in the room, create a dramatic feel with recessed downlights at the head of the bed. Separate controls will allow both snoozing and reading simultaneously. Table lamps can be used to brighten up dull corners.
A central ceiling light is normally the case in most bedrooms. This can be dressed with an elaborate shade, iridescent bulbs can be used to enhance the mood with the use of a dimmer switch to control the amount of light needed.If your bedroom gets hot in the summer, a ceiling fan with or without a light can be used to cool the room down.
When reading in bed, a swing arm wall light can be used with the general ceiling or wall lighting or, if your partner is asleep, on his or her own. This should be placed on a bedside table with the bottom of the shade lower than your head level. If placed above, this will shine light onto what you are doing and produce a glare. Opaque shades are best to use because they will dim the light enabling your partner to continue sleeping.
Track lighting or spot lights can be placed near to a wardrobe, providing direct light into the wardrobes for ease of choosing clothes. Having the track light on a separate switch will give you flexibility and control.
To brighten a dull corner, a table lamp can add an attractive light feature to any bedroom. Pairs of table lamps are available within our online shop. There are several ways you can create a calming ambience in a bedroom. By placing lights at different levels , either with the use of a floor standing lamp placed in the corner of a bedroom or by the use of swing arm wall lights next to the bedhead or bedside table lamps.
Dressing tables are designed to be illuminated. Wall lights placed either side of the main mirror will ensure that no shadows are cast on your face whilst applying make-up.
