About our lighting designs
What is Task Lighting?
Task lighting, as the name suggests, is lighting which is used to highlight an area so that a specific task can be carried out, such as lighting above a kitchen worktop or a reading lamp next to an armchair.
What is a Pendant Light?
A pendant light is a light which hangs from a ceiling, usually suspended by either a cord, chain or rod and is available in a variety of styles.
Pendant lights usually serve as the primary lighting source within a room and can add an interesting focal point to any space.
What is Accent Lighting?
Accent lighting is usually used to illuminate a specific feature within a room, such as wall art, furniture or quirky architectural details.
Floor lamps are one of the most popular options when it comes to accent lighting, however, when used correctly, wall lights can also serve the same purpose.
What is Mood Lighting?
Mood lighting is perfect for creating a little bit of atmosphere in a room - especially when task lights are not required.
Mood lighting allows you to turn off your main pendant lights and task lights, creating a softer, more ambient space.
Where to Put a Floor Lamp in a Living Room
When it comes to where to put a floor lamp in a living room, there are lots of different options which can serve very different purposes.
The most common choice is to place a lamp next to your sofa or armchair, as this will not only provide soft mood lighting, but also serve as task lighting for activities like reading.
