Description | The lighting of a space is much more than just the placement of fixtures. Often, people confuse fixtures with lighting, without understanding that the right lighting solution is the result of many parameters. The advancement of technology has provided many options, but this can create confusion and ultimately lead to mistakes.
Let’s look at the 12 most common mistakes we might make in lighting and how we can avoid them.
Fixtures are only one of the parameters of lighting. The right lighting depends on many factors, such as the dimensions of the space, the colors, and the activities taking place there. First, determine the lighting needs and then choose the appropriate fixtures.
The selection of fixtures often happens thoughtlessly. People either mimic someone else or choose something they simply like, without considering the needs of the space. It's important not to choose based solely on appearance or price.
Spotlights are popular, but they are not always the best choice. They create large differences in brightness and can be dangerous in spaces like the kitchen. Use them to highlight points, not as primary lighting.
We need to decide whether the space is intended for work or relaxation. There needs to be a balance between aesthetics and functionality.
Flexibility in lighting is critical. We need solutions that allow for adjustments depending on the time of day and the activity.
Every fixture has its purpose. Don’t try to use a fixture for something it wasn’t designed for.
A low price doesn’t always mean a good choice. The cost of a fixture continues with electricity consumption and maintenance.
Often, cheap options turn out to be more dangerous, as they may not meet safety standards.
Lighting should match the other furniture in the space. A sophisticated area requires fixtures of corresponding quality.
In the effort to save, we should not forget that lighting is only one part of energy consumption in the home.
Lighting should not be the last priority. It is crucial to plan it early to ensure proper electrical installation.
We need to design the lighting from the outset to avoid problems down the line. Careful study and planning are vital.
In summary, proper lighting is fundamental for creating a pleasant and functional space. Invest in understanding your needs and consult experts to ensure an ideal outcome.
