Create Accent Lighting With Decorative Floor Lamps
Posted: Feb 18, 2014
Lighting is considered an art by many. Apart from photography lighting, many also consider indulging in home lighting a soul satisfying and recreational activity. One can directly pick up the principles of lighting one has learnt in the photography classes and apply it while deciding the lighting of the room or house. This article focuses on accent lighting and how it can be used to create the right ambience at your home.
Accent lighting, in layman’s terms, means to establish the prominence of a particular object or place in the room by the way of lighting. This form of lighting is created to introduce a bit of drama in the room. You can tell your story via different colours of light. You can set different moods and impart a certain message. And floor lamps have always been an important source of accent lighting.
Get Swanky And la mode Designs: Dangling a bulb or a tube light to create accent lighting is a nasty idea & most would agree to this. Rather place your favourite colour bulb in beautiful lamp enclosures. You can mix and match the colour of the bulb with the lamp that shelters it. When a different colour light passes through a different coloured lamp surface encompassing it, the result would be mesmerising.
Experiment With Different Colour Schemes: Many times keeping the regular off-white colour for the light bulbs enclosed inside the thick and thin lamp shades can create magic. Suppose it is the yellow coloured exquisite bohemian flower vase placed near the couch that you want to bring attention to. And the flowers and leaves put in the vase make for a white and green colour combination. In this case, you can place a floor lamp near to the vase that sprinkles soothing blue light over it. This kind of decoration would create a tranquil mood inside the room.
Set Focal Points: With the aid of accent lighting you can set focal points. You can highlight a particular aspect of the room & bring it to the attention of the person entering the room. In case you have yellow coloured walls and off-white drapery in a large room; still you can bring attention to the figurine of Lord Christ placed in the corner by placing an elegant floor lamp adjacent to it. You can procure a sleek and large lamp for the purpose that is decorated with all sorts of charms and throw some red and green colour light over the figurine.
