Post LIGHTING FOR A PURPOSE
Depending on the place or purpose you are intending on using the lighting will almost determine the type of product you require, although generally there will be a couple of different style options to choose from. For Example,

• If you have just moved house and are looking to purchase your first Christmas Tree, you could look at Artificial Trees with String Lights or Fairy Lights or Pre-Lit Artificial Trees to save yourself the time evenly distributing your lights on your tree every year.

• If you are looking for background or mood lighting for home or use within the work place then Rope Light, Strip Lighting or high powered Spot Lighting may be the lights for you.

• Require Lighting for an event whether it be a wedding or a concert, we have a wide range of Curtain Lights which can be made to any size or colour.

• No power points? We also have a large range in Solar and Battery powered lighting, which includes a Solar Security Light to keep the burglars away and battery powered Fairy Lights for any occasion.

Being new to lighting doesn’t have to be daunting, for any further advice or information please call our experienced team.

Post Re: LIGHTING FOR A PURPOSE
The importance of taking into consideration the lighting when decorating and trying to enhance the look and feel of a room simply cannot be overstated. The lamps lighting choices that a person makes will have a great impact on the overall feel of a room. The lighting fixtures and lighting accessories that are chosen will ultimately make a huge difference in how the room can be used, as well as how comfortable people feel when in the space.

There is no question that lighting design has an enormous effect on the mood, the feelings and the perceptions of the people who are in the room, setting the stage for how the room will be used and enjoyed. Making the right choices in lighting fixtures to enhance the use and purpose of a room does require a degree of deliberate choices, as well as a degree of knowledge about the various types of lamps and fixtures available. There are many types, as well as added features that one can choose from.

Many people prefer lamps lighting to the type of lighting that is provided by permanently installed fixtures. This is because the various types of lamps that are available, such as desk lamps, floor lamps and table lamps, are often much more flexible and easy to change as needed to accommodate different situations that arise.

When choosing the ones to illuminate a given area, you first need to be observant so that you can take into account what the lamps are needed for and how the lamp lighting can best address those needs. Consider what kinds of tasks or actions are typically performed in each room and which types of lamps will best provide the needed light to enable you to comfortably and safely carry out those endeavors.

In most cases, they are used in three general ways. First of all, lamps provide the light that is needed to do certain specific tasks, such as cooking, sewing, reading, homework, and the like. The lamps that provide illumination for these kinds of activities are usually called task lights and they need to provide a lot of brightness so that people can easily see the objects they are working with. Some task lights use 3-way light bulbs, which allow the user to choose the best level of light for their specific task.

The second main way that lamp lighting is used is to provide ambient lighting, which is the general, overall light that illuminates spaces and allows people to safely move about and observe objects in the room, and see other people as well. Ambient lighting also helps to create a mood for a room and the best types can be adjusted with the use of dimmer switches so that the level of the light can be modified.

The third frequent use of lamps lighting for a room is to provide accent lighting. These fixtures are designed to highlight and draw a person's attention to a special object in a room, such as an exquisite sculpture or a magnificent painting. Often, people will using accent lighting to feature the architectural details that are part of their home. More and more often, light fixtures can be found that can provide two or even all three of these common lighting functions, saving people both money and space.
