Description | Lighting vs Fixtures: The Importance of Proper Selection
One of the most common mistakes made in lighting a space is confusing fixtures with lighting. As strange as it may sound, these two elements are entirely different. Fixtures are just one parameter of lighting, while lighting encompasses a range of factors that shape the final atmosphere of a space. Differences Between Lighting and Fixtures Lighting depends on many factors, such as:
The Importance of Proper Fixture Selection
Buying fixtures without planning and relying solely on their appearance or price does not achieve effective lighting. It’s akin to purchasing clothes without knowing your size.
The ideal approach includes a photometric study, which identifies the lighting needs of the space. Through this, we quantitatively and qualitatively determine lighting requirements, adjust the budget, and arrive at the most suitable lighting fixtures.
Informed Selection This way, choices become informed rather than random. Thus, we ensure that the selected fixtures meet the needs of the space on every level.
Conversely, if we don’t know what lighting we need, "any fixture will do." This paraphrased phrase highlights the importance of knowledge and preparation in the field of lighting. After all, a space can be dramatically enhanced or diminished by lighting choices.
Conclusion Choosing the right fixtures is not merely a purchasing process; it is a strategic decision that impacts daily life and the atmosphere of our home. By investing time and attention in the process, we ensure an environment that is not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing.
