Types of Indoor Lighting


Decorative Lighting-Decorative lighting is light that is used more for its appearance than for its ability to produce light. This may include chandeliers, hanging fixtures and sconces. Here, the fixture itself is the main attraction, though the  LedLights  produced can also be beneficial. Decorative fixtures are added as part of an overall lighting and design plan and are not generally included as part of ambient lighting.



Ambient Lightin-Ambient lighting is the general base lighting in a room. It provides a foundation for lighting design, and is the most common type of indoor lighting. Ambient light is typically provided by ceiling fixtures, sometimes called overhead lights. These may include recessed down-lights, surface-mounted fixtures or fixtures mounted in ceiling fans. Floor and table lamps are another common source of ambient lighting.
