Consider These 4 Questions When Planning Your Home Lighting
Residential lighting design is something homeowners can take for granted until they are left in the dark. Unfortunately, this happens more often than we'd like to see. The typical correction? A strategically placed lamp.
These pockets of darkness can happen because your home is unique to you and your lifestyle; no builder can guess how you may ultimately use a space, so their lighting solutions are often generic and leave darkened areas throughout a residence. This setup will work fine for most homeowners, but why settle when you could have perfection?
As you consider an update to your home's lighting design, or if you are building a new home in the Manhattan, NY, area, ask yourself these questions to discover the lighting enhancements that could add value to your daily living.

Stay Energized and Productive All Year Long With Easy to Control Lighting
As the weather turns colder, the days get shorter. That means the amount of time people can get outside and soak in the natural light decreases this time of year. Some professionals may be going into the office right as the sun rises only to get off when the sun has already begun to set.
This lack of sunlight can cause people to feel low on energy. Sunlight signals to the brain that it’s time to be awake and productive and supports people’s energy throughout the day. In the winter, people can lose energy and motivation with less sunlight.
But did you know that your home’s lighting can help combat this? By installing a smart lighting control system in your New York, NY, home, you can mimic natural light in your interior living spaces. Keep reading to find out more!
