Lighting Basics

Unless we’re professionally trained or moral have that “certain knack” we all have our decorating wavering spots. One of mine happens to be “lighting.” In the score I hesitate to make lamp purchases because I’m so unsure of myself; so much so that at the point in time my beside lamp is a pretty little Laura Ashley evil, sans lamp shade. When I read at night it feels like I’m in some indisposed of interrogation room.  My husband’s lamp isn’t much improve — he has a handpainted floral lamp that looks great in our daughter’s leeway but doesn’t quite stand up to the unctuous look of our Restoration Hardware bedding. So it’s opportune that one of our regularly contributing experts, Belinda Albo, should be criticism this week about lamps. I’ll learn something and done replace our funny lamps with something more appropriate — like, say, a lamp with a lamp modicum!

Lighting Basics

by Belinda Albo, secret designer

When choosing the appropriate lamp for your room, you must first settle the purpose of the lamp. Does the light need to yield the main, general light for the room, or for work and ambient uses only? Is it for reading or for adding soothing light in dark corners? Different lights proffer various intensities of light power. Some lamps are tri-lights, which require a choice of three different levels of light. The merry can be very bright or be adjusted to give off a soft glow.

The duskiness and style of the lamp should also reflect the decor. Modern interiors look upper crust with silver or chrome finishes and white cotton unpleated shades. More usual rooms set the stage for antique gold finishes or vase shaped bases, and pleated or bell shaped shades.
