Lighting Design Fundamentals for Premium Homes

Feb 2026 7 min

The three layers

Ambient (general illumination), task (reading, kitchen), accent (art, architecture). Every room should have all three, on independent circuits.

Colour temperature by room

Living: 3000K. Bedroom: 2700K. Kitchen task: 4000K. Bathroom: 3500K. Tunable white solves all of this if you commit to it.

Scene design

5–7 named scenes per room is the sweet spot. More and they stop being used. Fewer and you feel constrained.
