lighting in interior design

Lighting in interior design is one of the most essential elements, as illumination can make or break any space. Lighting is not just about practicality to get the tasks done or to make the other elements in the interior design of the space pop up. Good lighting in interior design not only makes the space look visually appealing, but it also enhances a space in such a way that it can radiate good energies and positivity in your home and make your everyday life smarter, more practical, and more efficient. We are the best interior designers in Delhi. We take our lighting design very seriously by creating a smart balance of different types of lighting in the interior design of our projects. DAYLIGHT  We believe good sunlight or daylight in a space is as vital as other architectural lighting in interior design. Daylight is abundantly available, throughout the year, especially in a place like north India so we make sure to plan it smartly by giving large doors and windows in our spaces to let it peep inside the space at the same time smartly designing the fabrics of curtains and blinds so that it doesn’t cause much glare in the space. Daylight at 12 noon and 4 in the evening can give a different type of glare into your interior space, so it is equally important to balance it with interior lights to have a stylish, luxurious, and balanced interior space. TYPES OF LIGHTING IN INTERIOR DESIGN 1. AMBIENT LIGHTING Ambient lighting in interior design is a type of lighting that creates an atmosphere or as the name suggests sets the right ambiance for your space. They are not the main focus pieces of lighting but the most important. They provide a soft, diffused glow instead of any harsh glare in the space. They come in dimmable variants which means you can customize your lighting experience in the space according to the glare you need at the point in time. Let us now see some of the types of ambient lights that we use at Sculpt design studio while designing an interior space. 1.1 Recessed track lights – This is the most trending lighting in interior design as per the trend of 2024 and we love doing this on our false ceilings. These make the space look elegant and luxurious, getting the task done by providing good illumination in the space. They are very customizable; you can install a linear light, or a suspended downlighter to it. 1.2 Chandeliers – You already know, how beautiful a chandelier can be in an interior space. They can be installed at various places like your entrance lobby or over your dining or even in your bedrooms. It is essential to look at what kind of chandelier you aspire for your space, as it can be a heavy crystal chandelier to a minimal yet modern one. We like to design and plan chandeliers according to the theme of the house from a luxurious crystal chandelier for a classical villa to a minimal modern yet elegant piece for a young couple’s home. 1.3 Cove lighting – This type of lighting in interior design is again a very widely used type of lighting, mostly as a part of ceilings. This is the most effortless way to add that soft glow into your space. You can just relax by switching on your cove lights after a hard day at work, or if you want to set the mood for a house party this is the perfect light that should be on your list. They come in various colors and are highly customizable but we at Sculpt design studio like to use warm whites on curtain coves, so that there is always a soft diffused illumination on the top of the curtains. 1.4 Wall scones – This is yet another beautiful piece of lighting in interior design space. These can be easily fitted on the wall at the desired height and can feel the richness in the space. This not just provides a soft diffused illumination but also acts as an art piece for your wall. The bonus point is that infinite types of lighting designs are available in the interior design market. We like to plan our wall lights beforehand by leaving points on the wall for them. We get the design to customize or according to the theme of the project and get our ultra-stylish results without much effort.  2. TASK LIGHTING This is the second most important type of interior lighting, as the name suggests the main purpose of this type of lighting is to get the task done. For example, you use these types of lighting to highlight a particular area, or an artwork or even use it for your workstations. But the designs and variants available in the interior market today make it a must-have in your interior spaces. Let us see some ways how we like to use different types of task lighting in our interior design projects.   2.1 Lamps – There are different types of lamps that can be used in an interior space, be it a pendant hanging lamp from the ceiling over your kitchen island or work desk or even a table lamp on your nightstand which you can use to read a book, or just to have a warm relaxed atmosphere at your space. So, while getting the task done you can also transform the mood of your home into a space that can make you feel like you are in a luxurious hotel. 2.2 Profile lights – This is yet another beautiful piece of lighting in interior design that we like to use in our interior design projects.
