Recessed lighting has become very popular because of its versatility and ability to create ambience. It’s easy to install and maintain and very cost effective depending on which type of bulb you choose to use.
There are many ways you can use recessed lighting to showcase your home, draw attention to an area or serve as a practical tool to help you with your work. Many people like to use recessed lighting to highlight a work of art, a painting or a collection of glassware or other things they want to show off. This type of lighting accentuates without being obvious, creating a focal point rather than spotlighting an area. It also opens up a room and makes it look and feel bigger; this is why you see many museums making liberal use of recessed lighting.
Recessed lighting is an excellent way to provide glare-free illumination for other areas, too. The kitchen is one area where this type of lighting really shines, so to speak. By placing recessed lights under cupboards or in the ceiling you can enjoy the brightness of light you need without unattractive fixtures, spacing it to shine just where you need it. Many people like to use it, dimmed, as subtle night lighting to prevent falls and guide the way around the house as well as the kitchen.
It’s important not to place recessed lighting fixtures too close together. The general guideline is one foot apart for every inch of diameter. For example, 4” fixtures should be placed no closer than four feet apart. Rows of recessed lighting should also be avoided as they make a room appear sterile and cold.
Incandescent, or “A” bulbs, provide inexpensive lighting for general purposes. “R” bulbs are the most common and have a reflective surface on the back to provide more light. Halogen bulbs are good if you like clean white light to highlight special features of your home.
