Don’t rush through the decoration brochures.
I know what you want, but I'm afraid you'll be deceived by those beautiful pictures.
Nowadays, the whole world is full of what is called "design without main light", and there is also a saying of "seeing the light but not seeing the light". It seems that if someone has a big chandelier hanging on the ceiling, even if it is just a big chandelier hanging on the ceiling, that person is extremely tacky. Is this really the case? I don't think so.
Lighting, to put it bluntly, is to put makeup on the house.
Don't just focus on the main light, the light is for use
I have seen many, many people. Once they step into the lamp city, their eyes are immediately glued to the most gorgeous crystal lamp. After moving it home, I realized that, apart from the "wow" feeling I felt when I first entered the house, after I actually moved in, the light was turned on very few times a year. On the contrary, because the brightness was too high, it felt dazzling when watching TV. When I sat under it, I always felt as if there was something pressing on my head.
People who really understand life are now thinking about how to "stratify".
Think about those high-end hotels. Why do you feel comfortable and comfortable when you step into them? The reason is that it is not just a pot of light shining directly on your head. It will place a floor lamp near the sofa where you sit, hide a strip of light under the floor of the corridor you must pass, and give a beam of wall-washing light to the painting you can see when you look up. This is called "high-high-low." Once light has different presentations such as height, short, fat, and thin, the space will naturally have muscles and bones.
Color temperature? Just don't turn it into an operating room.
There is a pitfall, really, and many people have stepped on it.
As far as the kitchen and bathroom are concerned, I have been thinking about installing fluorescent lamps, but the lights are so pale that when cutting vegetables, it is like doing surgery, and the face appears full of color. As for the bedroom, it was painted in a dull yellow tone. I wanted to create a romantic atmosphere, but it turned out that it was very difficult to find anything.
This thing is called color temperature.
In the living room and bedroom, according to my opinion, the color temperature range is between 2700K and 3000K, showing a warm yellow tone, with an atmosphere similar to that after sunset. Once people enter it, they will naturally relax.
In the kitchen and study room, when you need to stay awake, the light brightness can be slightly higher and should be maintained at around 4000K to present neutral light to avoid drowsiness.
There is a more advanced way of playing, and currently popular lighting fixtures that can be adjusted to different colors are popular. In the early morning, when you wake up from your sleep, you will see the bright morning light, which can help you wake up; when night comes, before you prepare to go to bed, you will see the dim candlelight, which can help you fall asleep. There is such a lamp that can follow your rhythm throughout the day, so it can be called thoughtful.
What I'm most afraid of is that you see the lamp, not the light
There is a secret to a sense of luxury, which is called "seeing the light but not seeing the light".
Look at those excellent designs. The light source is hidden in the light trough on the ceiling. The light is projected to the ceiling and then diffusely reflected. The whole room seems to have been gently soaked by the moonlight. There is no dazzling glare, only a soft atmosphere.
Or hide it in the shelf of the cabinet. When you open the cabinet door, it is not to illuminate your face, but to illuminate the bottle of wine and the book you have collected. At that moment, the object you cherish becomes the protagonist, while the lamp becomes a supporting role!
About that "home that transforms day and night"
I have seen a particularly interesting case recently. It is located in Beijing and covers an area of 94 square meters. It is owned by a young couple. During the day, it looks like a quiet cafe. At night, it can be switched with a one-click operation, and the entire home is transformed into a cyber-style nightclub.
Under the island, there is an RGB light strip hidden, and the mirror on the sink reflects the light strip on top, making it look like a time tunnel.
What does this mean? The light is no longer just a light. It is the switch of your emotions. During the day, you have been pretending to be your grandson at the workplace all day. When you return home and close the door, the lights change and you can dance to your heart's content on your own island and stare at the neon lights in silence. Home has become a dual-sided container that allows you to go "crazy" and "quiet".
Nowadays, the most luxurious thing in decoration is that it is not the amount of money spent, but the variety of emotional possibilities it gives you. This is the key, isn't it?
Picking up the lamp is actually picking on yourself
After all, the lamp you choose actually reveals what kind of person you are.
Those who like the cold white light with a strong sense of lines are mostly capable mental workers who pursue efficiency and cannot tolerate any ambiguity and ambiguity.
Perhaps, people who prefer warm yellow light have a soft spot for environments made of fabrics and wood everywhere. Such people may be more nostalgic and yearn for the sense of security that comes from being surrounded.
There are so many young people who are obsessed with bringing all the novelty gadgets to their homes, such as RGB marquees. The cooler they look, the more they like them; while those who are a little older just want a light with stable characteristics, soft light and no glare. As long as they can see their wife's face clearly when they sit there, they will be satisfied.
There is no right or wrong, only whether it is suitable or not.
Finally, I would like to say a few heartfelt words.
Don’t blindly believe in the so-called “designer hits”. No matter how expensive the lamp is, if it is installed in your home and it cannot make you feel that “click” in your heart every time you turn on the lights when you go home, and then make you feel “well, it’s great to be back home”, then the money will be wasted.
Don’t be afraid of making mistakes, either. For things like lighting, there are so many smart and modular ones nowadays. Do it first according to what brings the most comfort. After you move in, if you feel somewhere becomes dim, you can add a desk lamp or floor lamp at any time. Light can be created gradually, just like cultivating a pot of flowers. Increase it today and decrease it tomorrow until you find the right level.
After all, life is something you experience, not something you show to others. That lamp must first warm itself before it can warm others.
