Layering light in a living room
How different layers of light create a more comfortable and inviting space.

Build a gentle foundation.
Begin with the way the room is used. A comfortable living space can combine an overall glow with more focused light beside a chair or over a table.
Balance the layers.
Wall lights, pendants and table lights can each have a clear role. Giving each source some space helps the room feel considered rather than evenly bright everywhere.
