Everyone knows that sufficient illumination of the room is the key to the comfort of those who are in it. Therefore, artificial lighting is simply necessary. How to organize it as efficiently as possible?
Today, no one argues that natural and artificial lighting should go, as they say, side by side. Not so long ago, information was circulating in society that mixed lighting is harmful to vision. But science does not stand still, and this statement has been refuted.
It should be understood that artificial lighting, or rather its organization, will largely depend on which side the windows of the house face, whether they are covered by trees, and many other factors. In this case, it may be that in the same building the rooms are illuminated in completely different ways. It is also imperative to take into account the inclinations and needs of those who will be in the room. And the purpose of the room itself.
For example, in offices, artificial lighting is usually quite bright and centralized. The individual needs of each worker are rarely taken into account. But this situation is not hopeless! It is possible to bringa table lamp or a floor lamp, which will be the solution to the problem of insufficient lighting. And if there is too much light, then you can try to switch places with one of your colleagues.
As for what artificial lighting will be at home, everything depends solely on you. But it is definitely worth noting that hanging a chandelier in each room, and limiting yourself to that, is not the most correct approach. The chandelier, of course, should be in the room. But! Not always its power is enough to illuminate the entire room with high quality. Yes, and electricity costs can simply go off scale. Therefore, a more rational solution is to use a chandelier of medium brightness, supplemented by local lighting. So, near the chair, for example, there can be a lamp that will be used for reading, and near the computer, you can place a special lamp that will make work comfortable. And in the kitchen, place special lamps above work surfaces that will make housework more productive.
The quality of artificial lighting will also depend on which lamps are used. It is better to refuse incandescent lamps. They do not give a powerful luminous flux, but they consume a lot of electricity. A worthy alternative is fluorescent lamps, which cost a little more than their "ancestors", but quickly pay for themselves.
By the way, do not forget that light is needed not only by people. Plants need itto the same extent! Therefore, it is necessary to think about how to organize artificial lighting for plants. Here, fluorescent light sources will also be the best solution. After all, they can be placed quite close to the plant, without fear of harming it. It is recommended to turn on the backlight in summer for an average of 3-4 hours, and in winter - for 6-8.
It's that simple!
