Despite the fact that it represents the single most important aspect of interior design, lighting ideas often come as an afterthought.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Consumed with the selection of furniture and wall decor, we tend to postpone our thoughts on how to light our homes until the very last stages of the decorating process. However, lighting design can truly make or break a space, so coming up with a good lighting plan is indeed crucial to creating both a functional and cosy living environment.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">From <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/lighting\/ceiling-lights\/chandeliers\/style\/antique\"><strong>antique chandeliers<\/strong><\/a> in the living room to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/lighting\/ceiling-lights\/pendants\/style\/mid-century-modern\"><strong>mid-century modern pendants<\/strong><\/a> above the dining room table, there are so many sensational options available to help you lift up your home with lighting.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How do you light a room? Here are our expert tips on how to bring your lighting ideas to life.<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. <strong>Master natural light first<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Before you create a dedicated Pinterest folder and start pinning your dream <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/lighting\/table-lamps\/style\/art-deco\"><strong>art deco table lamps<\/strong><\/a> or fabulous <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/lighting\/ceiling-lights\/pendants\/style\/industrial\"><strong>industrial pendants<\/strong><\/a>, first take a moment to study the way natural light travels inside your home. Consider different times of the day and changes you\u2019ll see throughout the year.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Remember, it&#8217;s not only about light. It\u2019s about shadows too. Use the dance of the shadows to play with drama and illusion. And when you master natural light in your home, continue with building up the mood with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/lighting\"><strong>vintage lighting<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\" style=\"text-align: center;\">\r\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/Ha6HOIbMe0NTgkG6iJlI228qyGqgTSmQJwmfZBtC5MDIxU1rdGrNoThLW_OpCLR3Z65ujJ7HxGGiOFO_bpPm-GleXbNJdeCOfCwsJQJKu0By-Atcbdw7tYDglFp9XGyZskgFUMv-\" alt=\"natural light in interior design\" \/>\r\n<figcaption><em>Image source: <a href=\"https:\/\/onekindesign.com\/2018\/02\/05\/modern-farmhouse-style-home\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">One kindesign<\/a><\/em><\/figcaption>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. <strong>Create ambience with your lighting ideas<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Don\u2019t go rushing into closing a shopping list filled with your favourite antique lights without thinking about the function of the space you are looking to illuminate. Create a mini-plan that covers the essentials and guarantees you\u2019ll end up with just enough light to tackle the tasks you\u2019ll be performing in each room.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">The lighting ideas for your kitchen and bedroom will be wildly different, so make sure to consider both productivity and desired ambiance before committing to a specific piece.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\r\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/L__miilBZ61egTsDHJ4-OE2-W3Wz477pa-U4iFBIWnhOvptUVkMJtdJsfNPzc5U1VF8zt8XUBDJBOdJmMZK3fPNSy3e0V8bqvBfwSAxBgLYynztKwhtyNStLHtAx-EFX-BCEjR8q\" alt=\"How to light your home | Vinterior\" \/><\/figure>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/sellers\/1st-modern\">Swedish Chandelier In Brass &amp; Glass By Holger Johansson For Westal | 1st Modern<\/a><\/em><\/p>\r\n<h2>3. <strong>Layer lighting<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Use multiple lighting sources to add flexibility and interest to each room.

When setting the tone for your lighting scheme, <em>too bright<\/em>, <em>too white<\/em> or <em>too cold<\/em> are never qualities to aspire for. Instead, go for a slightly warm feel.<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Always prioritise several bulbs that give off soft light over a single bright lighting source. Don\u2019t make yourself uncomfortably exposed by powerful overhead lighting fixtures. A dimmer switch or additional vintage lamps will equip you with all the light you need without constantly creating glare.<\/p>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_95462\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-95462\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-95462\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Screenshot-2022-11-11-at-15.29.10-1024x666.png\" alt=\"1970s ceiling light\" width=\"640\" height=\"416\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Screenshot-2022-11-11-at-15.29.10-1024x666.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Screenshot-2022-11-11-at-15.29.10-300x195.png 300w, https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Screenshot-2022-11-11-at-15.29.10-768x500.png 768w, https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Screenshot-2022-11-11-at-15.29.10.png 1306w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-95462\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/sellers\/from-our-house-to-bauhaus\">Optima 5 Pendant Lamp By Hans Due For Fog &amp; M\u00f8rup, 1972 | From Our House to Bauhaus<\/a><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">10. <strong>Consider ceiling height<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">One of the most often overlooked aspects of interior lighting is taking into account the height of the room.
