Light and furniture: how to plan them together
Why furniture layout and lighting scenarios are best planned at the same time.
· Редакция Livingspace (демо)
Furniture and light work as a pair: a pendant over the table, a floor lamp by the armchair, shelf lighting. If you plan them separately, the ceiling outlet may end up away from where the table finally stands.
Start with functions
Decide where people will read, work and entertain. Each zone needs its own lighting scenario.
Layers of light
- General light to find your way around the space.
- Accent light for paintings, textures and niches.
- Task light for reading and work.
Discuss the layout with a designer before finishing works begin.
