⚖️ The right balance

The secret is not to choose only warm or only cold.
It's about combining both intelligently.

✔️ Use warm in relaxation spaces.
✔️ Opt for cool in concentration areas.
✔️ Multiply the sources: pendant, table lamp, floor lamp…
✔️ Add a dimmer to adjust the ambiance according to the moment.

 

🌟 Decor tip

In winter, warm lighting brings comfort.
In summer, cool lighting refreshes the atmosphere.

Changing the lighting ambiance with the seasons can transform your interior.
