A combination of general and task lighting that takes into account
the age and lifestyle of the occupant is needed. Remember, dimming
controls give you the flexibility to vary the light to suit
different moods and activities.
General lighting can be provided by ceiling fixtures, chandeliers,
fan lights, recessed downlights, or wall sconces, giving you
the illumination you need.
At the dressing table, an adjustable, lighted magnifying mirror
will provide ideal lighting for grooming and applying makeup.
For closets, a surface mounted or recessed closet light is suggested.
Swing-arm wall lamps on either side of the bed will provide
adequate light for reading, while leaving night tables free
for a clock radio and books. Another idea is to hang pendants
next to the bed, or install recessed downlights in the ceiling
over the bed.
Children's rooms will benefit from the use of track lights,
which can be swiveled, rotated, and aimed in any direction to
shed light on play areas, hobbies or homework. |
