You can tell a lot about someone’s personality by how his house looks. A well-decorated house says that the owner pays attention to aesthetics, while a poorly-arranged house screams only one thing: slob!
If you don’t want to risk being called that, then it only makes perfect sense to put some time into decorating or redecorating your home. Don’t think that you’ll have to haul in a whole renovation team just to dismantle and tear down walls. You can still manage to give your home a fresh look with the magic of contemporary lighting.
The living room is one nook in your house which you can spice up with lighting. To set a homey, laid back mood, you can set contemporary pendant lighting over the sofa or coffee table. Some lighting of this kind allows you to adjust the brightness. You can set it bright when you plan on doing some reading, for instance, or dim it slightly for a more romantic effect.
You can highlight artwork by using accent lighting. Simply focus the beam of light on the pieces of art, and you instantly have that art gallery ambiance.
You can also position an uplighter behind the sofa, to give off a dreamy effect. This provides just enough light while watching TV, for example.
It doesn’t take much to bring life to an otherwise drab home. All it takes is a little imagination… and light!
