Make Sure You Have the Right Amount of Lighting
When it comes to home lighting, a common mistake we see people make is that they do not have the right amount of lighting for their space. It can be tempting to go overboard and add as many fixtures as possible. However, you really only need enough light to illuminate your space comfortably and safely. You should also avoid over-lighting any one area of the room.
At Hobrecht Lighting, we recommend that customers focus on adding layers of lighting to their homes. Layering lights will help you target specific areas and tasks with lighting, while also serving as an additional design element in your home without going overboard.
Choose the Right Style of Fixture for Your Home
Just like with any other design element, your lighting should reflect the look and feel of your space. Whether you prefer a traditional look or a modern aesthetic, there are lighting fixtures that will compliment your home’s style. Take into consideration the style of your furniture, flooring, and other home decor. At Hobrecht Lighting, we have a wide variety of lighting fixtures to choose from, so you can find the perfect style for your home.
Don't Forget About the Basics
There are four types of basic lighting: ambient, task, accent, and decorative. Each type of lighting serves an important purpose in your home's overall design scheme.
Ambient lighting is the main source of lighting for a room or space. This can be created by using ceiling lights like chandeliers and pendants to add light to your space without eliminating style options. Task lighting helps illuminate specific areas for specific tasks, like reading or cooking. Accent lighting is used to highlight certain features in a room, like artwork or a fireplace. And finally, decorative lighting can be used to create an inviting atmosphere and set the mood in your home.

Add Dimmable Lights or Lighting Controls
Having a dimmer switch for your home lighting can be really helpful in creating the perfect mood. You can turn up your general lighting to create a bright and airy space, or dim them if you're looking for more of an intimate atmosphere. Dimming controls also provide energy savings by reducing electricity consumption when dimmed. Shop all of our lighting controls today!
