How to get Started

Get switched on and tackle your whole home’s individual lighting needs

-

Take time to treat each room separately and ask yourself whether the lighting in each space serves its purpose. If it doesn’t, it’s time to make a plan. Note down what each room is used for and what activities take place in which areas.

Your kitchen-diner will likely be used for cooking, prepping by the central island or social drinks around the breakfast bar – all requiring different types of light. installing dimmer switches, or adding table and floor lamps or directiona­l lighting can drasticall­y enhance certain areas of your home.

Getting stuck in

whether you’re moving to a new house or just undertakin­g renovation­s, it’s worth planning your lighting even more carefully. Consider new wall fittings and installing plug points to add more options for lamps. Fit downlighte­rs into low ceiling areas or incorporat­e them into your new kitchen.
