Better Light Your House in Autumn & Winter

Did you know that when houses and flats are built, their orientation is taken into account? The most common is that the day area (living room, dining room, and kitchen) is located on the side where it receives more hours of natural light. Therefore, in autumn it is important to continue letting the light in. Do not prevent their entry by placing a sofa or any other piece of furniture in front of them, quite the opposite! Let each and every one of the rays of sunshine warm your home.

2. LAMPS WITH FABRIC SHADE

The fabric shades filter the light and create a cozy atmosphere. If the fabric has a sand hue, the light is warmer and more pleasant.

3. FIBER LANTERNS

Natural fibers such as rattan, wicker, or bamboo are the order of the day. And the best thing is that they are perfect for giving warmth from the floor to the ceiling. If a fiber lamp seems too much for you, try placing some lanterns like the ones in the image in a corner. They will raise the temperature of the room whether they are on or off.

4. MAXILLAMP ON THE TABLE

Now, if you are a declared fan of natural fibers, bet on placing a huge lamp on the dining room table. Place it around if your table is round. In addition, made of natural fiber, the effect will be light even if it is largely thanks to its fabric, which lets light through.

5. CREATE DIFFERENT POINTS OF LIGHT

To give warmth and comfort to the living room, make sure to put several points of light. Ambient lighting is essential to create relaxed and pleasant environments. Place the lamps below the view so that they do not dazzle and the result will be unique.

6. LIGHT UP THE HALL

One of the latest trends in lighting is to place led lights in walkways. Whether at the ceiling or floor height, it is a very useful (and above all decorative) resource to offer pleasant light at any time. Now when you get up at night, the light won’t dazzle you. It is a good alternative for houses with children or elderly people, who tend to get up frequently at night.

7. AMBIENT LIGHT IN THE BEDROOM

Bedroom lighting is essential, especially at this time of year when natural light is lacking. In addition to a general light (which will be very useful for collecting, cleaning, and ordering) using a ceiling lamp and a table lamp to read comfortably, you can place a lantern with a tea candle. It will give a rustic and very personal touch to your nightstand.

8. UNMATCHED ATMOSPHERE

Create sets of candles and place them at strategic points in the room. Even so, try to be careful not to place them near curtains or in drafts. Also, don’t leave them on without supervision.
