Bedrooms - Choosing the lighting

 
Back to index page


The right light

The right light will help you wind down and get a good nights sleep - but you also need strong lighting so you can get dressed in the morning and don't leave the house wearing one brown shoe and one blue.

Bedside Lamps
Perhaps the most important aspect of a bedroom is the light beside your bed. When one of you wants to read or watch TV, the other wants to sleep and vice versa.


Main central light
Fit a dimmer switch on the main central light or wall light - it creates instant atmosphere. Have a switch by the door for when you come in and out but also make it controllable from the bed otherwise you'll have to get out of bed to turn it off


Colours for your lights
Choose shades with a white inside and a warm colour outside fitted with a clear bulb to give off warm tones of light.

Dressing table lights
Dressing tables need to be horizontally lit from both sides - otherwise you'll have shadows across your face

Fairy lights
Fit fairy lights and Install a voice activated light switch - so you'll never have to get out of bed
