Replace the bare lightbulb on the ceiling with a lamp: no problem. But then you also have good light? Proper home lighting should be planned. It starts with the lightbulb.
Nothing seems so easy, how to design rooms with light. After all, there are tons of lights. Judging by their sometimes complex – and expensive design, play lights, at least, as for looks, plays only a minor role in interior design. The more important decision is made with the illuminant. lightbulbs, Halogen spotlights or fluorescent lamps are very different in their light quality. Planning light therefore means, to create the harmonious interaction of different light sources. Which combination is chosen, depends on need. Example television: Without lighting the area, you soon get a headache, eyes get tired. Therefore, a light source should indirectly softly illuminate the wall surface behind the TV. Example desk: A standard work light is sufficient for
does not provide the required uniform brightness distribution. When working, the eye usually wanders back and forth between different brightness zones and has to constantly balance the contrasts from light to dark, which tires the eyes over time. When general lighting is provided in addition to the intense working light, strong differences in brightness can be avoided. And that's better for the eyes.
The little ones shine best
When designing with light, the incandescent lamp is still widely used. It has an acceptable color rendering and can be easily dimmed, d.h. regulate the luminosity. Their disadvantage is the meager energy yield: Approximately 95 percent of the energy supplied is not turned into light, but transformed into warmth. Their modern successors are far more efficient, which has led to its wide spread. Tubular halogen lamps and halogen lamps with light bulb sockets are operated directly on the 220 volt mains and are characterized by a higher light output. In addition, they have a twice as long service life. The same with low-voltage halogen lamps. The voltage is with a transformer of 220 on 12 volts reduced. In this way, the lamp body could be reduced enormously. Lamps the size of a gummy bear have opened up completely new possibilities for lighting designers. The light output is the same
Energy use twice as high as with the incandescent lamp. Halogen lamps can also be dimmed, with its neutral light color, the color rendering is significantly better than that of the incandescent lamp. You notice it when reading, for example: White paper appears white with halogen light and does not appear yellowish.
