4 Fantastic Ways to Use Lighting in Your Home

Whether you’re preparing a home for prospective buyer viewings, or just moved in and looking to put a unique stamp on your new abode, lighting is a versatile way to have fun with your interior design.

With so many different options out there, you can incorporate light to give your home a creative flair while still providing a practical solution that you need.

If you’re looking to do something a little different, then here are just four fantastic ways to use lighting in your home.

1) Colour Change Bulbs

One of the simplest changes we can make to our lighting is to replace our bulbs with colour change bulbs.

With brands such as Philips Hue, you can change your lighting to match your mood, or even activity.

Easy to control through both an app or a wall mounted remote, you’ll always have the colour lighting that you need.

2) Artistic Installation

For the more creative look, consider treating your lighting like it’s a piece of artwork and consider crafting light features into installations in the form of wire sculptures.

While not a new trend, wire and light installations are typically found more in galleries and commercial properties than the domestic sphere. Experts such as Ormiston Wire have provided wire solutions to a number of artists and sculptors so that they can create stunning pieces that turn light into art.

3) Floor Level LEDs

One of the most practical ways to use lighting in your home is to install floor level LED lighting strips to your landing, hallways, and stairs.

This way you can navigate your home much easier in the dark without having to turn on the main light – this is especially useful if you’re up in the middle of the night and planning to go back to sleep.

Floor level LEDs can make your midnight wanderings a little safer, and even help you fall back to sleep faster.

4) Neon Signs

Another favourite of the commercial property that has seen a rise in the home is the use of neon signs.

These fun additions are a great way to introduce something a little different to your designs. While they are more commonly found in the kitchen, you can install them in whatever room you like.

And with brands such as Sculpt Neon Sign, you can create your own custom design to ensure that your neon sign fits perfectly with the room’s purpose and style.

Finally, you should never underestimate the power of natural light. If you’re willing to make bigger renovations, then expanding the size of your windows or installing skylights in key areas such as kitchen extensions can give your home a brighter, more open feel.
