From the last post, FOUR POINTS TO NOTE ABOUT HOME LIGHTING #1, we knew that the significance of selecting the proper brightness in home lighting. In this post, we are going to introduce that the influence of the CCT (Correlated Color Temperature), one of the main specifications of LED lights, in-house lighting. Just like brightness, different colors of light can bring about a completely different indoor lighting environment. As we all know, the reddish white light, that is, the warm white light will make people feel relaxed and easeful, and the bluish cool white light is beneficial to concentration.
Therefore, it is improper that select the same CCT LED lights in all space of the house. Although the warm white LED light can create a warm and comfortable lighting atmosphere, it is not suitable for the activities that require concentration. Based on this reason, the living room, home office, and kitchen all are the main activity space, which is suitable for neutral white light or the slightly higher CCT LED lights. Likewise, according to the function of the bedroom and bathroom, adopting warm color lighting will be the better choice.
In the posts #1 and #2, we introduced the effect of brightness and CCT respectively in home lighting. From which, we can conclude that both the brightness and the CCT of LED lighting are the key factors to create a reasonable home lighting environment.

Four points to note about home lighting #1
Home lighting is an important part of our house. With the development of LED technology, LED lights are applied in our house for illumination and decoration such as LED bulbs, LED tubes, LED Panel Lights, LED strip lights and so on. House lighting allows us to live like we do during the day, as well creates different atmosphere through different lights. But there are a few matters needing attention in the choice of illumination lights. Using lights incorrectly not only wastes electric energy and cost but also have a negative influence on our lives. We will cover this topic in four parts because there is too much content, hoping the posts will be helpful to you.
In this post, we are going to talk about the brightness, the most obvious factor, that has the biggest effect on human sense. As we all know, our eyes had better not often work in areas that are too bright or too dark. Because of the hard light will hurt our eyes, and the dim light makes people unable to see clearly, which result in eyestrain. Therefore, it is necessary to design different lighting schemes according to the structure of the house to achieve the proper brightness.
The functional areas inside the house have different lighting requirements. For example, the living room is an area for daily activities and entertainment, which determines that it needs to be the bright environment. Similarly, other areas of daily activity, such as the dining room, home office, reading room etc., require relatively high brightness to meet the needs. However, the light in the bedroom cannot be too bright, for it is the place for rest and the bright light is not good for sleep. Likewise, the soft light will be more suitable for the bathroom.
Furthermore, it has to be taken into account that although the above shows that various areas need different illumination intensity, the brightness of different places in a house should not be too different. Because the difference in brightness is so great, our eyes need to adjust to different brightness frequently, which can lead to eye fatigue and affect vision.
