Beautiful Lighting Effects By Terry Henman At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

The balance of light sources in a room can make the difference between boringly plain to wow factor by a flick of a switch.

Most homes are built with a central ceiling light fitted in the centre of the room. While these have their place-or so we are led to believe-they can be very boring and dull.

If you don’t want to add wall lights due to the fuss and expense of having the room rewired, the best options are to choose a really unusual light shade which offers control over the direction of the light source or sources. This type of light shade used in conjunction with floor lamps or table lights can provide unusual light patterns and densities. The great things about different styles and types of lighting is the ability to change the ambience and atmosphere in the room.

A Drop of Light designed by Itlab design laboratory combines engineering and Murano craftsmanship into a beautiful tear drop shaped suspended light. The clear droplet with just a hint of blue, has almost microphone like lights which poke through the holes and clip onto the side. This design is intriguing and fascinating to look at.

The chrome coloured microphones would coordinate well with a brushed chrome effect metal curtain pole with blown glass finials. Coordinating the delicate blue colour which is incorporated into A Drop of Light with beautiful sheer voile eyelet curtains offer the opportunity to use different textures with great effect.

Rooms can become enhanced and quite literally enlightened by the effective use of lighting. Interior designers are creating some fantastic designs in light shades. Each unique and each with its own distinctive merits.

Choose wisely and a room can transformed by the ‘speed of light’ simply by turning them on! Stunning light effects can changes moods instantly. Natural light is great during the day. Letting the warmth and brightness of the sun flood into a room can be a real morale booster. Be careful with strong sunlight as it can quickly fade furniture and soft furnishings. Curtains and rugs are the sun’s best friend when it comes to fading!

Lining curtains can help to reduce the fabric from fading. Venetian or vertical blinds are good options for allowing natural light to enter the room. When the sun is really strong, the blinds can simply be tilted to reduce the penetration of light and help to stop rugs from fading.

At night soft and subdued lighting can create a relaxing atmosphere. Using harsh 60 watt bulbs are definitely ’out’. They should only be used where a mass of light artificial is absolutely necessary for safety. Changing the colour of the bulb can also create different moods. Soft pinks and reds can be used to create a sensual ambiance in bedrooms! Be careful with blues as these can give a cold feel to a room.

Mix up the shapes and styles of floor and table lamps. This is the year for creating an individual interior which is pleasing to the eye and creates unusual effects. Light up your life and your interior design with a mixture of different lighting effects.
