The right lighting for your home depends on room function, ceiling height, natural light, and style preferences — but every room benefits from layered lighting: ambient (general room light), task (counters, reading, work), and accent (artwork, architectural features). Dimming should be standard on every layer.
Layered lighting basics
- Ambient — Recessed cans, ceiling fixtures, or wall sconces
- Task — Under-cabinet, pendant, reading lamps
- Accent — Spots on artwork, cove lighting
- Dimming — On every layer
- Color temperature — 2700K cozy, 3000K balanced, 3500K bright
We design and install through our lighting service, plus installations and remodels for full lighting plans.
