Our CA Modern Home Lighting Guide

A home comes to vivid life with the proper illumination. To help you find just the right lighting for your home, we’ve got an informative lighting buying guide discussing a few of the various types of lighting available to help you make some sense of those terms you may not be familiar with.

We’ll begin with Ambient Lighting which provides a nice substitute for natural lighting thanks to items like pendant lights that are designed to provide even illumination by hanging from the center of a room. While it all depends on the room in question the George Nelson Bubble Lamp comes in a variety of styles and provides a nice, warm glow that will look perfect in a hallway. For your dining room, just about any one of the Louis Poulsen lights will work, and for your bedroom you can’t go wrong with one of the Tom Dixon lights.

Task Lighting is when you need some nice light for a specific purpose like reading or being productive at your desk. The Goldman LED Table Lamp by Flos exudes simple elegance and has a convenient dimmer so you can choose exactly the amount of light you feel is best.

Outdoor Lighting is all about what kind of statement you want to make, from a simple light with subtle illumination to an attention grabbing light that adds style to your outdoor area. The Calumet Outdoor Wall Light designed by Ernest Gismondi for Artemide is a fine choice or you can opt for something like the 45 ADJ LED 1 by Tim Derhaag that provides direct or indirect light.
