Lighting can make a big difference in your home. Good lighting helps you see better and perform tasks more easily. It also provides safety, security and a sense of comfort. Lighting, as well as lighting controls, provides the flexibility to adjust and adapt the mood and ambiance of your home.

Here are some tips for planning an effective lighting scheme:

• Identify the activities that occur in each room (reading, cooking, grooming, laundry, homework, etc.).
• Identify the mood or ambience desired.
• Identify the decorative elements you wish to emphasize.
• Keep in mind dark colors absorb much light, so dark wall colors and finishes need supplementary light.
• When remodeling, identify existing electrical locations.
• Identify areas serving more than one purpose and those that require more than one type of lighting.
