The lighting in a home has the power to dictate the mood and perceived size of a room. The elements that come together when the right lighting is achieved transform a room into a seamless combination of functionality and style.
Have a wall with an interesting texture? Bring it to everyone’s notice by highlighting it with track lighting. If your walls are white, it’s a great way to brighten up the room by bouncing off the light from these spotlights. Using contrast coloured track light rods on the ceiling creates interesting lines and makes a huge visual impact especially if your room is like in this design here.

If you have an interesting artwork, light it up to bring more attention to it. The neon ring above the painting in this design brings attention to it in a non-obvious way. The neon ring also complements the pop art style seen in the rest of the room.

Chandeliers have always been associated with luxury. Using a chandelier above the dinner table brightens up the area as well as lets you dine like royalty. You can always opt for sleeker chic designs rather than traditional ones if your house has a contemporary style like in this design here.
Recessed lighting sends a relatively narrow band of light in one direction. Installed above the ceiling, this type of lighting is used to focus on small areas. The application of this type of lighting in study areas eliminates the need to use bulky desk study lamps.

Cove lighting is a form of indirect lighting built into ledges, recesses, or valences in a ceiling or high on the walls of a room. This type of lighting hides fixtures and provides a warm even distribution of light.

This design provides two different types of lighting fixtures; pendant lights and wall sconces. Wall sconces are mounted to the wall and can direct light upwards or downwards or both. This brings attention to the brick wall texture. Pendant lights are suspended from the ceiling and directs its light downwards, bringing the dining table into focus.
This design showcases a combination of chandelier, recessed and cove lighting. The chandelier here is an ornate traditional design that complements the wood and leather textures around it. This combination of light fixtures brightens up the room and the layering of light is particularly important in the living room, an area of the house where people tend to gather for long stretches of time and engage in an array of activities, including conversation, watching TV, reading, playing board games and using a laptop.

Track lights are a great way to bring attention to your collectibles. In this design, cabinet lighting and track lighting illuminate a shelf containing valuable collectibles. The pendant lights above the dining table brighten up the dining area as well as create interesting shadows due to their hollow frames.

A great method to light up dull stairways is to fix wall sconces. These brighten up the area and make it easier to see when you are climbing up and down the stairs. It also creates patterns on the wall that spark interest.

Pendant lights are a designer choice for stylish task and ambient lighting. Hugely versatile, pendants are equally stunning when clustered in a group or as a single statement piece. This pendant lighting gives the dining area a totally rustic look.

Placement and types of light are important aspects of interior design, and they work in conjunction with color selections, room size, availability of natural light and furniture selection. Thus when redecorating, one should always think about the lighting required in the house.
