How Lighting Affects a Space

Picture

PictureBoyne Residence
Great lighting can add dimension to a space; it integrates all the interior elements, it can be soft or dramatic, warm or cool, attract attention to an object, highlight architecture, feature interior design elements and aid visibility. Lighting creates atmosphere and affects psychological response. Patterns of illumination affect how you feel in a space.

Ask yourself how you feel in your home on a sunny day versus a cloudy day. How does a room lit with candles affect your perception of the space? Electric lighting can be designed to change your environment at the push of a button. This is especially valuable in northern Michigan, where we have long periods of time with little or no sunlight. But it is essential in any space where the people that inhabit it are important.

And that means in every space where you spend your time.
