Use Lighting Appropriate

Think about how you're going to use the space and whether there are any specific tasks that you'll be doing there that require special attention from a lighting perspective.
The kitchen is a good example of a space that serves several roles and can benefit from different kinds of lighting. Task lighting is used for meal preparation while ambient and accent lighting sets a mood for dining and entertaining.Task lighting illuminates dark walkways while accent lighting that washes the exterior of the house provides attractive evening curb appeal.
Using the various layers of ambient, task, accent and decorative lighting in coordination with how the space is used will provide an effective lighting plan with attractive results.
