Designer lighting can be a compliment to any room or any home. It doesn’t have to be artistic or fancy, but can be generalised and functional. The key to making it work is to focus on what brightens your space or adds something to the décor. Likewise, everything you need can be found at Australian Lighting.
Pendants
Pendant lights are a new trend that includes a thin stem-like base that hangs from your ceiling. The fixture is attached to the end of the stem and hangs down as a way of functionally lighting the room in a new and different way. They work well for foyers and dining rooms, or any room where people won’t be walking directly underneath. For example, they can be placed over the dining room table, where people won’t walk and bang their heads on the item.
Recessed
Recessed lights can also be used to accent the home. While not as decorative as pendants, they can provide a brighter light source. Pendant lights work well for smaller areas or to highlight particular things while recessed lights can cover an entire room and be moved around to focus on different elements.
These lights can be embedded into the ceiling or cabinets. The area looks flat, but the lights are inside and can be moved and rotated to fit your needs.
New Technology
Because of the new technology available, designer lighting is easy to install and use. You no longer have to walk into a room to turn on/off the lights, as you can use a remote control, similar to a television remote, to operate fans and lights within the home. These systems can also turn the lights off or on at predetermined times, making it easy to control the lighting in your house.
