Recessed lighting is incredibly versatile. There’s a reason this type of lighting has been used in homes and businesses throughout the decades. Available in many sizes and used with a range of compact fluorescent, LED, and incandescent light sources, recessed lighting is an ideal choice to illuminate any space. Here are a few of the key benefits of installing this kind of lighting in your home:
Make Your Space Look Bigger
Recessed lighting creates something called wall washing. This lighting effect casts more light around the room than other kinds of lights. When installed properly, recessed lighting can make a room feel bigger and brighter. Recessed lighting is also low profile, allowing you to show off art, house plants, and other focal points of the room without distracting the eye. Rather than having a fixture hanging from the ceiling, metal light housings are installed just above the ceiling line. When space is at a premium, getting rid of hanging fixtures helps create a sense of airiness.
Save Money, Energy
One of the most important reasons to install recessed lighting is that it tends to be more efficient than other varieties. Traditional light fixtures waste energy shining lights in all directions. Recessed lights only shine downwards, ensuring that all the light they produce is being used effectively. This makes recessed lights more energy efficient, too, saving you money on your monthly electric bill.
A Timeless Style
Home decor trends go in and out each year – it can be hard to keep up. If you’re feeling daunted by your options, recessed lighting is generally safe from the trend cycle. The sleek, modern look will never really go out of style, ensuring that you’ve got a classic style in your home for years to come.
