This is not true. Atmosphere is achieved due to the perfect combination of lights. But most of us have the same atmosphere which is provided by one light source. Turn on the switch and realize why you feel like being in the interrogation room.
The worst thing you can do is to turn on the overhead light. It is the brightest and the most uncomfortable type of light that is used only for showing what does not look nice at all. So you should turn it off forever and leave it for emergencies. Think about finding a lost earring with this light.
Firstly, you should create ambient light in your apartment. Think about it as about the bass in a song. This kind of light is provided by table lamps, floor lamps, and lamps with bulbs of 2700K. You should put them in the corner of the room in order to bounce light off the walls.
Secondly, you should add task light. As you can guess from its name, this is the light for doing something productive. Thus, you will need it for studying or working. The best example is a good lamp for studying, such as TaoTronics TT-DL16. It allows seeing everything and, at the same time, does not hurt your eyes.
Finally, you should think about accent lighting. This is the light for highlighting some special things in your apartment. For example, you can use picture light for your work of art, or for a book which you want to read or even track light that directs light on any interesting thing in your room.
Moreover, you should install dimmers on each of these types of light. Thus, the system of Lutron Caseta will be installed. In this case, you can adjust the brightness depending on the situation. There is the certain atmosphere in each moment and you can achieve it using light.
Actually, the cost of all these lamps and dimmers will not influence your budget in a bad way and the results will surprise you. Your apartment will change dramatically. It will become your happy place.
