The successful and harmonious interior of the apartment depends on the correctly selected lighting. With the help of lighting, you can decorate and adjust any living space. This requires very little: creative approach and classical techniques.
Let there be light, or what kind of lighting the apartment is
Lighting of any apartment is divided into main and auxiliary. For the main lighting is typical the use of suspended or ceiling models of lamps and chandeliers. Auxiliary lighting in some cases supplements the lack of basic lighting in the form of built-in wall, table or floor lamps.
Depending on the type and saturation of the light distribution, the lamps are distinguished:
• direct action
• scattered
• reflected.
Lamps of direct action are recommended for rooms with low ceilings and a small area. This is a variety of powerful ceiling lights used for local lighting or decorative lighting. Scattered light is used for decorative purposes in order to slightly dim the overall illumination.
Lamps of reflected action create a soft and even light intensity, perfectly combined with side or frontal lighting. The peculiarity of reflected light consists in the absence of a direct blinding effect. It must be remembered that the closer the room's lighting to the natural, the more comfortable and harmless the lighting is for our view.
Creating an apartment lighting design
The lighting design of the apartment is based on the basic rules for selecting lighting for individual rooms. Therefore, the lighting in the hall will be very different from the lighting of the kitchen.
To create a harmonious design of the lighting of an apartment, the specificity of each room and individual light zones are taken into account. So, the hallway lighting is where to start.
How to decorate hallway lighting
Any hallway or corridor is a room that, because of the lack of direct natural light, is always the most unlit. The conclusion is simple - you need to transfer the light accent to the ceiling and walls. This can be ensured by placing the main lighting in the center of the ceiling of the hallway, and placing the local one near the mirror. Not bad look on the ceiling built-in lamps in several rows. Such lighting will give some hallway graciousness. The only prerequisite for creating hallway lighting - lighting devices should not interfere with dressing or undressing. Therefore, no suspended lamps.
And suddenly your guest will be two meters tall?
Common room room and its lighting
The common room in the apartment or as it is also called "hall" should be well lit. Remember the "throne rooms" with their chic design and solemn atmosphere.
The modern "hall" has nothing in common, though, with those pompous halls does not. The modern common room in front is equipped, as always, with a TV, a three-dimensional sofa for the whole family and something else, namely, comfortable lighting.
Bedroom lighting
The most interesting is the lighting of the bedroom. Lighting in the bedroom should be convenient for relaxing and serene rest in this secluded corner. The mood of a full soft relaxation can be created using decorative elements:
• color backlighting
• small floor and table lamps
• highlighting floral arrangements or paintings.
Soft diffused light will create a unique and expressive atmosphere of peace and relaxation. Believe that with well chosen accents and interior light spots in the bedroom, your anxious and annoying thoughts will melt forever.

Special lighting in the kitchen
The kitchen is always considered the "center of the universe" in the apartment. It is here, in the kitchen, for a delicious dinner or lunch that all the strategically important issues of the family are solved.
The lighting of modern kitchen in the apartment should be uniform. It is possible to increase lighting only in the work area, namely for cooking. Illumination of the working area is achieved with the help of local sources, which can even be placed under shelves or hanging lockers. Hidden light sources will save the kitchen space on the countertop, and you immediately feel the comfort of this option.
The creation of lighting in the kitchen should ideally take into account the size of the room, the overall color scheme and decor elements. In most cases, for lighting use built-in spotlights or a few small lamps. Special panels for fixing the luminaires will successfully emphasize the gloss and the effectiveness of stretch ceilings or plastic ceiling. Even if the kitchen has a modest repair, then you can revive the situation with the use of an additional point source of light.
On the role of LED technology
The revolutionary era of the appearance of LED technology radically changed the "light" concept of lighting design. The undisputed leader - LEDs are the most promising and economical light source. Variants of LED lighting in an apartment have a number of obvious advantages:
• long service life of LEDs
• safety of manufacturing of LED fixtures
• Significant energy savings
• creative solutions for any living quarters
• universality of the light source.
Compositions of LED tapes focus on their design, not on the shortcomings of the interior or simple repairs with an unsuccessful layout. The illusion of "respect" will discard all unnecessary thoughts and make an indelible impression on enthusiastic neighbors.
