The Tricks Behind Natural Lighting Designs

THE TRICKS BEHIND NATURAL LIGHTING DESIGNS

American author Edith Wharton once said, “There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it.” And when we’re thinking about illuminating our homes, Wharton is right: There’s more than one way of doing it!

Lastly, use light colors (which reflect light more easily) to make your room look more open and spacious as well. It doesn’t have to be all white — pair with vibrant colors for a more eye-catching effect!

Utilizing natural lighting is one of the easiest ways to create a gentle, cozy mood in your home. Try using reflective surfaces, like decorative mirrors or a glass backsplash, to help light jump around the room. If you want to keep the sun’s heat outside while still allowing a bit of light in, try thermal or awning blinds; they can help give you comfortable temperatures in hot or cold weather.
