Children’s Rooms – Lighting Tips & Ideas
September 25, 2018

Lighting plays a key role in a child’s bedroom, helping to create an atmosphere that makes them feel relaxed and protected. Check out these bright ideas that’ll help you pick the ideal lighting for kids.

Lamps

A table lamp not only lights up a room, but it also doubles as a piece of room decor. Choose lampshades and lamp bases that double as decorative accents for your child’s room. Use a shade that incorporates one of your accent colors on a chest of drawers. On the nightstand, choose a fun base that matches the theme of your room or one of your child’s favorite animals.

Night light

A night light is deigned to illuminate a room with a soft glow that is not so bright that it prevents sleep. The best color for night lights is red or orange. The color of light given off by a night light can also have an effect on how well your child sleeps through the night.
Here are the most commonly used types of night light available.

1. Plug in Night Light
2. Projection Night Light
3. Soft Night Lights
4. Portable Night Light
5. Lamp and Shade
6. Led lights

LED lights are also ideal for low ceilings and walls because they don’t get anywhere near as hot as regular bulbs meaning they are far safer for little hands. New LED technology, they offer color quality similar to incandescent. When you’re choosing LED lights, choose bulbs labeled “warm white” or “soft white” for lighting reminiscent of an incandescent bulb. Also, ignore watts when you purchase LED lights; a 12-watt LED light puts out as much brightness as a 60- watt incandescent light

Ambient Lighting

Ambient (overhead) light in a room can come from large, central fixtures. Use a ceiling fan with a beautiful light fixture to efficiently circulate cool air throughout the room. If you want a decorative fan, choose decorated blades, but avoid light fixtures that are frosted with dark colors; they’ll make it tough to cast enough light over the room.

If you think about lighting in your kid’s room, then think about colors, furniture, and accessories. The element that makes everything look fabulous is lighting, and it’s an element that’s often overlooked.  To know more about lighting, talk to our experts at  LET Design Lighting consultants India today.
