Good-looking and effective lighting can be as simple as 1, 2, 3. Applying three layers of light in any room of the house solves even the toughest of lighting challenges.
1. Ambient/general lighting: Ambient light becomes the foundational level upon which the other layers are built.
2. Task lighting: Task lighting aids in the performance of the task in the room.
3. Accent/decorative lighting: Accent lighting is like the jewelry, the “bling” that aesthetically finishes the room.
