Hello from Sunset Home & Design,
Overhead fluorescent lighting can really ruin the most beautifully designed space. The solution? Gallery lights. Yes, the type of lighting found in museums can also pull a room together. At first thought, placing a picture light somewhere without a picture might seem contradictory; however, it kind of makes sense. These fixtures are space-efficient and cast a dramatic downward glow without upstaging the rest of a room’s decor. When you think about it, it’s pretty genius, right?
“Who says gallery lights are just for art?” asks Los Angeles-based designer Linda Hayslett. “They’re like eyeliner for your library—subtle, but they make everything pop.” Browse these ideas for how to incorporate the lighting trend into your space. Live well, |
