Although almost everyone focuses on accessories in the interior, such as posters, flowers, decorative bowls, vases and photos, few remember to give special attention to light points, including table lamps. This is a mistake, as they are the easiest way to invite luxury, a unique atmosphere into the interior and make evenings with loved ones or those spent with a favorite book more enjoyable. Here’s what else you’ll gain with luxury table lights in your home!
Table lamps and light – what is worth knowing about them?
Light plays a very important role in the interior, and those who have tried to do homework with a child after dark, read a book before bedtime, as well as cooking, cleaning and other activities that require focus on details, know this.
To meet all the needs of the occupants, it is important to adapt the lamps to the type and purpose of the room. The most common distribution of light is in the form of:
- main light under the ceiling itself (pendant lamps, ceiling lamps or spotlights);
- auxiliary lighting (standing lamps – floor and table lamps).
If one and the other are found in the interior, we can talk about a room adapted to the eyesight of residents, householders or employees. Unfortunately, the given division sets some traps for buyers.
Layout of main and auxiliary light – differences
The layout of the main light is usually easy – just choose one lighting source with a specific value expressed in watts. The main light source in living rooms should be about 60-70 watts, in the kitchen close to 60, for the dining room 25 is enough, and for the living room and bedroom from 40 watts upwards.
The question of setting additional light sources is no longer so intuitive. Admittedly, there are also specific values that indicate what the power of such lighting should be (40 watts for reading lamps and about 20 watts for bedside lamps intended to calm before bedtime), but the placement itself is much more difficult.
After all, in the case of the main light source, it is enough to ensure that the light reaches everywhere evenly, thanks to the fact that it will be placed in the center of the room. It is different with lamps, which theoretically can be placed… everywhere.
Therefore, it is necessary to carefully plan the placement of floor and table lamps so that no part of the room is shrouded in darkness, and at the same time – so that all household members feel comfortable, do not complain about shining in the eyes, reflection of light from the TV or quick fatigue when doing homework and reading a book by the glow of a table lamp.
Despite the requirements, the need to test different options or even take advice from a specialist, this is an option definitely worth the time spent. Therefore?
What advantages do luxury table lights have?
Luxury table lights invite style and chic inside. It is thanks to them that every room in the home and business (from the vestibule, where customers wait to be interviewed, to the offices – even the one belonging to the CEO) can be made even more luxurious and elegant.
In addition, lamps are a practical alternative to the numerous decorations placed on tables and shelves, as well as massive plants that can aesthetically overwhelm the interior. After all, for several years the biggest trend among home and business arrangements has been the combination of practicality and aesthetics – the new ornaments in the interior can be anything from document folders that will be color-matched to other furniture and placed on a bookcase, to a hanger furniture, where clothes are visible and in themselves beautify the interior.
Luxury table lights (for example, from the Homessimo online store) will help to easily spruce up any space. With elegant table lamps you can achieve a lot. This is because:
- they build atmosphere and intimate atmosphere;
- they enhance the reputation of a place (if you take care of exclusive models);
- they help delineate functional zones in the rooms;
- additionally expose decorations, furniture and other points in the interior;
- are a decorative element that combines practical and aesthetic functions;
- they make it easier to work, read, put on makeup, get ready for bed, etc.
Elegant table lamps – advantages you have not thought of!
What’s more, table lamps can be successfully placed in any room, including those intended for professional duties.
Table lamps decorate the interior, but do not distribute diffused light into the room, so they facilitate work and invite a romantic and cozy atmosphere into the room.
It’s also a good option for people who lack a moment for reflection and relaxation. Relaxing with a lamp instead of the main light on can help you calm down before another day full of duties.
In addition, table lamps protect against the autumn and winter blues. At the end of the year, when the days are very short, they remind us of the sunny months. If at this time you not only feel depressed, but also bored – table lamps can be decorated and shades can be changed (many models provide free replacement). Also important is the mobility of the lamps, so that they can be moved to other rooms, if the vision for the arrangement of a room changes.
How to choose table lamps so that you do not regret them?
In addition to the above tips, there are a few more things you should know. When deciding on a table lamp, keep in mind that:
- it looks great to combine two identical table lamps in one place, for example, on both sides of the sofa, TV or dresser (a solution recommended in larger interiors, where two luxury table lights will not visually overwhelm the space);
- it should not be more than one and a half times higher than the table or other piece of furniture on which it is placed;
- you need to take into account the width of the top of the furniture in question, so that there is no risk of knocking over the lamp with even a slight contact (especially parents should check whether the lamp can pose a danger to the youngest);
- helps to express the character of the household members, emphasize the style of the house and the purpose of the room.
