If on one side you could feel more confident with reference to the aesthetic aspects<\/strong>, on the other side you may be confused<\/strong> from a technical <\/strong>point of view.<\/p>\n

For this reason, today we will discover together which are the most common mistakes<\/strong> we make when we have to light up our house<\/strong>.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Common mistakes<\/strong> when choosing your house lighting items: the style of the lamps<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

When you have to furnish your house, choosing lamps that have the most suitable style<\/strong> is a fundamental aspect to be able to give a pleasant look<\/strong> at every space. A very common mistake is to choose items that contrast with the room<\/strong> they are placed, making it become scarcely harmonious<\/strong> form an aesthetic point of view.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

One of the most frequent pieces of advice I often give not to fall into this mistake is that of choosing one element<\/strong>, that can be a material or a color, which is already there in that same room and try to select a lamp that recalls such element.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”112262″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Common mistakes<\/strong> when choosing your house lighting items: the position of the lights and of their switchers<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Choosing the right position<\/strong> for each lamp within the house has a great importance. Often instead, it happens that lights are placed in the wrong spaces<\/strong> or else at heights which reveal not to be functional<\/strong>. For example, did you know that the ideal height<\/strong> of a chandelier from a table<\/strong> is 70cm? If it is placed too high or too low it immediately looses both its functionality as well as its aesthetic role.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”112264″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]To such category we also add the mistake of placing the switchers <\/strong>in spots and at heights that are barely functional. We must actually consider how we use the room<\/strong> and where the furniture is placed so as to be able to use it at its best, without being obstructed. The switchers next to the door<\/strong> that we use when standing up for example, will have to be placed at a different height<\/strong> compared to those that we use when we are laying in bed<\/strong> or sitting on an armchair.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”107842″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Common mistakes<\/strong> when choosing your house lighting items: technical characteristics<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

This is probably the most popular topic amongst common mistakes<\/strong>, because there are many technical aspects on which mistakes can be made. It can actually happen that the light intensity<\/strong> is too high or too low, making a place too full of light or rather too dark to be able to live it at its best.<\/p>\n

Also the light temperature<\/strong> is an important parameter that can jeopardize the comfort of a room; for this reason there is a scale of values that helps us: the Kelvin scale<\/strong>, which divides the light coming from any source as warm, neutral and cold. To have some natural light<\/strong> for example, we must choose a value between 4000 and 5000 Kelvin<\/strong> degrees to find the ideal light.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”108017″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]To make sure we have a space which has a perfect light distribution<\/strong>, it is always advisable to ask an expert for a technical lighting design project that respects all parameters related to habitability <\/strong>and visual comfort<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

With this last mistake we conclude this short guide on the most common mistakes when choosing your house lighting items<\/strong>. Thanks to such suggestions I really hope you may find your way in the fascinating universe of lighting with greater awareness![\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Barbara – Baliz Room <\/strong><\/p>\n
