Most modern hallways are windowless rooms, which means that natural light does not penetrate here in any way. You can compensate for the lack of lighting with the help of artificial light sources, and it is important to organize them so that the hallway does not seem dark and gloomy, but it is not too bright either. What features of the hallway lighting should be taken into account, what light sources should be there, and how can they be used to divert attention from the shortcomings of the room? The answers to these questions are in the article.
When choosing light sources and a place for them, you should be guided by some rules that will help bring comfort and coziness to the room. So, the main requirements for hallway lighting are as follows:
Even in the smallest hallway, it would be nice to highlight several different light sources. This will make it possible to turn on only those lamps that are really needed in each specific case and create the right lighting every time. If the hallway is of normal size, then it does not hurt to provide switches in different places so as not to go through the darkness in search of it, but to be able to turn on the light from the living room, for example.
It does not interfere with highlighting light accents in the hallway. So, the most illuminated place can be the entrance area, where households and guests get dressed, put on shoes, etc. The accent can also be placed near the doors to the living room, and the light will, as it were, invite you to enter. The rest of the doors leading to the bedrooms and other rooms do not need to be highlighted.
The function of the main light is extremely clear and consists in illuminating the space for the one who has just entered here. Often only such lighting is dispensed with, which makes sense in very small hallways. General light can be arranged in one of the following ways:
Local lighting will greatly simplify the search for the necessary items and help you better see yourself in the mirror. Usually, local light is arranged in the area of the cabinet, mirrors, shelves with small things, etc. If we are talking about a closet, then the lamps can be built into the walls, the visor and the body, and the system can be configured so that the light turns on automatically when the door is opened.
The mirror also needs additional lighting, because it is important for each of us to know how it looks before going outside. You can place the lamps on the sides or on top of the mirror. In preference - lamps that gently scatter light.
This lighting is not mandatory, but its presence can transform the hallway and correctly place accents in it. Often for this purpose, LED strip is used, which is laid along the perimeter of the floor or ceiling, visually expanding the space and blurring boundaries. Moreover, floor lighting will be useful at night, when you don’t want to turn on the main light, and the LED strip will create soft, but sufficient lighting to see everything. In addition, if there are any irregularities in the hallway, such as steps, podiums, etc., then floor lighting becomes even a necessary thing.
