When organizing general lighting, it is worth using linear lamps or one chandelier located in the central part of the ceiling. The main task is to achieve an even and optimal in terms of brightness stream of light. It should not hit the eyes and cause fatigue, but at the same time not be too dull.

General lighting can also be arranged using recessed ceiling lights. In this case, you need several of them, placing them at the same distance from each other will make it possible to achieve uniform illumination of the entire area of the room.

Local lighting is aimed at highlighting several zones within one room. For it, sconces, table lamps, floor lamps, created using LED technology, are most often used. It is better to choose warm light bulbs, because cold tones are more suitable for work spaces - offices or home offices.

A wide range of such light sources makes it possible to choose the color, intensity and lighting mode that is used to decorate the living room.
