The Magic of Lighting

by Ana McCreath

It is not uncommon for lighting to be one of the last things that is brought in to finish a room. But, done without thought, it can end up uneven and disappointing. We have all been there.

In contrast, creative lighting will paint, colour, and create mood using different light sources and fittings.

Notice how smart the steps of a staircase look as they are gently lit by small directional fixtures. Or how trees in a garden look so enchanting with some clever uplighting.

Books and magazines are a good source of ideas and it is interesting to observe the different ways light sources are used and the moods they create. Experiment at home by moving lamps to different places and heights, it really can change the feeling in a room.
