Autumn Coziness for Your Home

How to choose the right lighting for different spaces in the home?

Kaip išsirinkti tinkamą apšvietimą skirtingoms namų erdvėms?

Home lighting – more than just lamps

Properly chosen lighting works wonders – it can change the mood of a room , expand or “narrow” a space, improve comfort and even boost productivity. It’s not just the shape or brightness of the lamp – it’s how the light interacts with the space, colors, furniture and even your daily rhythm that matters.

To make your home both stylish and comfortable, it's worth thinking ahead about what kind of light you need in each area , what feeling you want to create, and whether your lighting solutions will be flexible as your needs change.

Why is lighting so important?

Light affects our mood, energy levels, and visual comfort . The same room with different lighting can look completely different – ​​cozy and inviting or cold and uncomfortable.
For example, too bright, blinding light in the bedroom will prevent you from relaxing, while dim lighting in the kitchen will make it difficult to prepare food. Therefore, it is worth choosing lighting for each room according to its function.

Living room – multi-layered lighting

The living room hosts many different activities, from parties to quiet evenings with a book. That's why layering lighting works great here:

  • Central light fixture ( pendant lights ) – provides general light.

  • Additional lighting (floor or table lamps ) – provides comfort and allows you to illuminate only certain areas.

  • Decorative lighting (LED strips, wall lights ) – helps create an atmosphere and emphasize interior details.

With this combination, you can quickly change the mood of a space – from bright and energetic to warm and soothing.

Bedroom – light for relaxation

The most important thing in the bedroom is peace and comfort . Warm, soft light that does not irritate the eyes is suitable here. Choose table or wall lamps by the bed so that you can read comfortably in the evening, and in the morning you can adjust the light intensity according to your mood.
A modern solution is dimmable lights: with one handle or button, you can switch from bright light in the morning to soft light in the evening.

Kitchen – precision and convenience

There should be a lot of light in the kitchen, especially in the work area . It is most convenient to combine the main ceiling lighting with local lighting above the countertop (LED strips under the cabinets or built-in spotlights). If the kitchen connects to the dining room, a hanging decorative lamp above the table will become both a practical and stylish accent.

Bathroom – safety and clarity

Bathroom lighting should be moisture-resistant (IP rating) and provide excellent visibility. The mirror area is one of the most important: a neutral or cold light spectrum is suitable here, which accurately reveals colors.
Another good idea is additional soft lighting, which is useful in the evening when you don't want bright light.

The hallway – an often forgotten but important space

The first impression of a home is often formed in the hallway, so it's worth making sure it's bright enough . Ceiling lights or spot lighting above the closet will help you find things and get ready to leave.

Small spaces – the power of light

Directing light onto walls or ceilings visually increases space . Light fixture housings, compact shapes, and strategic placement of mirrors near light sources can make a room feel twice as spacious.

Light color – an invisible element of interior design

  • Warm white (2700–3000K) – for comfort and relaxation (bedroom, living room).

  • Neutral white (4000K) – for precision and cleanliness (kitchen, bathroom).

  • Cool white/daylight (5000–6500K) – for concentration and work.

Choosing the wrong color temperature can make even the most beautiful room look unattractive.

Common mistakes when choosing lighting

  • One light for the entire room.

  • Too bright light in the recreation areas.

  • Unregulated lighting where activities change.

  • Insufficient IP rating for wet areas.

  • The color temperature of the light is ignored.

Light – the architect of home mood

Well-thought-out lighting not only changes the look of a room, but also how you feel. By combining different light sources and selecting them according to the function of the room, you will create a home that is a pleasure to return to.

Whether you're looking for inspiration or stylish solutions, the Maison Home lighting collection offers both functional and decorative options for every space.
