Light Fixture Ideas

The kitchen is as much a cooking space as it is a place to enjoy family and friends. Get ready for all its various uses with multiple kitchen lightingsolutions.

• For overall room illumination, install a dimmer switch. Dimmer switches instantly control brightness and set the right ambience.
• For more targeted lighting, opt for under-cabinet and recessed lighting fixtures over work areas.
• For both task and accent lighting, select recessed track lights. Versatile and flexible, track lighting comes in several colors and styles.

The best bathroom lighting will be both stylish and safety rated for damp or wet areas.

• Sconces are ideal task lights over a sink. They can also increase safety in darker spaces such as the shower.
• For the best illumination over your mirror, opt for track lighting. Set in strips, these types of lights minimize shadows and provide even light.
• For a warm glow that reduces glare, choose bathroom light fixtures with frosted-glass designs.
• If you have a small bathroom, use recessed lighting to open up the space.

Whether it’s a relaxing oasis or your family's favorite gathering spot, accentuate your living room with a variety of decorative light fixtures.

• Table and floor lamps work well for reading or other tasks that require direct light.
• Accent lighting is a great choice for highlighting focal points such as artwork or keepsakes.
• Control the mood in your living room, day or night by installing a dimmer switch.

A dining room is the ideal space for a casual meal, a dinner party or even an extra workspace. The right lighting will help you create a welcoming space that looks tasteful all day long.

• For small dining areas, create interest with one or two overhead lights with a unique shade or design.
• Layer different types of lighting in a larger dining room such as wall sconces or floor lamps.
• Adjustable spotlights or a desk lamp can transform your dining room into a quick home office or study space.
• Match your lighting fixtures to your furniture's style. Choose sleek and minimal for a glass table or go natural with a wood look.

Bedroom lighting is all about coziness and calm. Create the right mood for relaxation with different lighting fixture options.

• Table lamps on nightstands are a practical and attractive lighting option, especially if you like to read before going to sleep.
• Add elegance with decorative yet discreet flush-mount ceiling fixtures or hanging pendants.
• For larger bedrooms, opt for stylish chandeliers with matching floor lamps.
• Dimmable accent lighting is a great way to create a sense of peace and quiet.

Tip: Make the most of your new lighting by swapping incandescent bulbs for budget-friendly, energy-efficient LED light bulbs.
