Have you ever considered the importance of home lighting? Light controls the human biorhythm, influencing our waking and sleeping patterns, providing energy, and encouraging relaxation. Therefore, the type, color, and intensity of artificial lighting are crucial for each room.
Home lighting is often overlooked, which is a mistake. It stands as one of the primary elements of both functional and aesthetic living. Thoughtfully selected ceiling lighting, LED spotlights, or fluorescent lamps can enhance the atmosphere of any room, fostering a positive mood and boosting productivity when strategically placed.
What trends in artificial lighting has the Albertov Rental Apartments complex embraced to ensure residents feel comfortable in their apartments at all times?
Three Levels of Lighting
In interiors like those of Albertov Rental Apartments, lighting must be considered in three layers. The first ensures overall visibility in the living space, complementing natural daylight. The second layer, often referred to as ‘task lighting,’ focuses on specific areas such as tables, desks, or countertops, where activities like cooking or writing typically take place. The third layer comprises luminaires that enhance the room’s atmosphere, providing decorative accents or highlighting interesting features, such as clinker bricks.
Smaller decorative lighting fixtures are often overlooked in conventional households. However, it is these precise details that elevate the tasteful décor of the premium apartments in the Albertov complex to another level. Examples include elegant bedside backlighting, light-framed mirrors in the bathrooms, and practical under-cabinet and floor lighting near the kitchenette.
Choosing the Right Light Color
Different light colors contribute to the ambiance of a room while also influencing its function. ‘Warm’ lights promote relaxation and comfort, whereas ‘cool’ lights enhance productivity. Light color is measured in Kelvin (K) with higher Kelvin values indicating cooler light. Therefore, we opt for values up to 3,500 K in areas like the kitchen, study, or bathroom, and withing the range of 4,500–6,500 K for productive spaces.
A Balance of Light and Darkness
The kitchen, raised bar, dining table, and relaxation area in Albertov Rental Apartments are equipped with appropriate ceiling or wall lighting, as well as floor lamps. Moreover, ample daylight streams into the apartments through large windows. Should residents prefer to limit this influx, blackout curtains are provided, allowing for complete relaxation.
