Would your home or office benefit from LED Interior Lighting?

Website Editor

If you wanted to change the lighting in your home or office, and you had the time and budget to make these changes, what would you opt for? Whether you’re after a complete overhaul, or just one or two subtle changes, either can be achieved on a reasonable budget, and changing something as relatively simple as LED interior lighting can work wonders.

It’s all about knowing how to use space more effectively

This can be done in a number of different ways, such as changing your lighting for instance. A lighting project on your home or office area can be undertaken by our electricians in Edinburgh. VC Electrical has worked on projects of all sizes over the years, both complex and simple in their execution. We’re friendly and knowledgeable, and we can explain different LED indoor lighting options in a simple yet intelligent way, so you know exactly what your options are.

Why LED lighting?

Well, we believe LED lighting is kinder to the environment, uses less energy and saves you money. LED lighting lasts much longer than conventional light bulbs and is available in a wide range of different styles. Naturally, there will be certain practical considerations to consider when choosing the type of LED lighting for your home or office. Interior lighting can come in a variety of soft light options that offer ambience and mood. However, if you’re going to be using your office for work then there has to be some practical considerations, like will you be able to work underneath such lighting, work on your computer, or use video to communicate with clients?

You’ll never have to settle for a simple white 60-watt bulb

There are other options that could work and allow the required light needed to read and/or study. Rather than skimp on the amount of light you use, you could try using fixtures and fittings that add style and elegance. You could try an industrial theme using metals, and you could throw in some rustic, neutral colours to match the colours of the metal on both the light fittings and/or shades. The bulbs don’t have to be dull, LED lights are much more sophisticated than they used to be, but rather than using one light, why not try using a set as part of an LED Lighting installation.

Retro lighting adds nostalgia

By using Vintage Edison type bulbs, you can add a real touch of class to areas usually associated with the living room or kitchen, but there’s no reason this can’t work in an office space. The LED version of an Edison type bulb lasts longer and saves you money as well as, using less power, so it’s definitely win-win. They work in an industrial style too, like we’ve already mentioned above, so this could really work in a home office. At the same time, they give you a soft lighting that you can work in.

Using soft shades of gold, silver and bronze

Softer shades in specific colours will blend in with almost any theme or décor and again you should be able to work in it. LED lighting gives you more value and lasts much longer than conventional light bulbs - so why not try them? For interior lighting, why not settle for a set of lights rather than one in the centre of the ceiling. If this is something you have currently, try to come away from conventional lighting and opt instead for a lighting installation that throws more light and looks more elegant and also happens to be bang on trend for 2019.

As far as office lighting is concerned, as long as you have the right level of light for your office, to see and do the practical things you’ve got it covered. Practicality and functionality matched by elegance and style – at a fraction of the price because LED lighting is so cost effective.
