So, we all know what lighting is, but let's try to define this concept. We all know that it is light that allows a person to see and thereby receive 97% of information, and in this way light forms the space around us and serves as a guide. The task of us, as architects and designers, is to create for you the most pleasant and comfortable space for life, work and creativity.

Let's talk about interior lighting
It is generally accepted that there are 2 types of lighting - artificial lighting (indoor light sources) and natural - natural.
Let's start with the natural. Natural lighting solves the following basic tasks:
sunlight is a natural antibiotic that acts favorably on humans. People living in countries with a lot of daylight are healthier and more cheerful. Lighting in direct sunlight is called insolation. Given this critical parameter, cities are created. Insolation parameters are taken into account when designing new areas and all residential buildings. As we learned earlier, natural light favorably affects the internal state of a person, increases immunity, and also reduces the risk of depression, which affects people living closer to the Arctic Circle.
As for artificial lighting, this is the lighting that you have from artificial lighting sources - lights, lamps, lamps ... So the competent placement of these interior elements will help you to get an interior that is not only aesthetically beautiful, but also comfortable for living.
If we influence the first parameter when designing a house from the very beginning, then when you have purchased an apartment, you only have to “play” using the second parameter. Let's look at this option and try to understand, but where should you start!
Here comes the rule - "Start with yourself." You have to live in this space, and accordingly, an understanding of how you want to live, how you live, what you will do in each of the rooms of the apartment is necessary. Answer us, interior designers, and, first of all, yourself, “Why did I decide that way?”, Such an answer will minimize erroneous judgments. We and you need to understand the scenarios of your life in order to properly position the light sources.
Let's find out what basic terms we use to denote artificial light sources in order of importance.
- Chandelier
- Pendant lamp (less grandiose chandelier, more modern material)
- Overhead lights - this is an option you will meet more with your grandmother, but there is a classification classification
- Spot light
- Recessed spot light. This light is also called “spot” - it is closer to modern solutions.
- Track light. Our beloved, convenient, scalable and minimalist cutting edge solution
- Sconce - to grandmother)
- Floor lamp - to parents or grandmother, but there are modern ones, such as Flos, as an example
- Table lamp - the most important element of lighting for your children or hobby
- Well, decorative lighting - all sorts of lights, garlands, fireplaces.
Depending on the style of the interior, designers use different types of light sources. In minimalism / loft / techno, recently, they use spots and track lights. In order not to delay, we suggest creating articles on the main sources of light used by us. The main brand that we use in outdoor and indoor lighting is SLV. SLV is a German brand that combines minimalism, quality and advanced technology.
As the conclusion of this article, we want to write that everything changes very quickly, the interior styles undergo changes, but what you have inside your core is evolving, but it already weighs on something. Therefore, be honest with yourself and the designers who create the interior for you, no one except you knows better than you! And he understands that sometimes, the incongruous looks very cool, contrary to all the rules.
