When adding new lighting to a room, consider the layered approach (ambient, task, and accent), color temperature, dimming, switch location, smart-control needs, and any code requirements for the space. The goal is layered light that supports each activity in the room — not just a single ceiling fixture.
Planning checklist
- Ambient light (general room lighting)
- Task light (kitchen counters, reading, workspace)
- Accent light (artwork, architectural features)
- Color temperature (2700K cozy, 3000K balanced, 3500K bright)
- Dimming support on every fixture
- Switch placement and smart control
- Code-required GFCI/AFCI on new circuits
We help you plan the layered approach during any indoor lighting project, with full design through lighting service and smart home integration.
