Recessed lighting was developed in the 1940’s and over the years, it has had a creative surge. Sometimes known as the pot or can light, it has become a very popular way to light older homes during remodeling and is becoming a focal point in newly built homes. Its ability to run on a lower voltage makes it more energy efficient. You can install recessed lighting in every room for energy saving benefits or for multi-purpose uses such as focal point lighting for art, antiques, or family heirlooms.
In areas of the home where certain tasks are performed, recessed lighting can be used to increase the light in that specific area. Work areas like the kitchen counter tops, over the stove, or in the laundry room can benefit from this lighting application; as well as work areas in the garage.
To add warmth and varied light tones to a room, recessed lighting can be used with other light fixtures, with precise positioning to accommodate the look that is desired. For small areas, recessed lighting is very adaptable and beneficial since it is placed flush with the ceiling or wall. It is a superb way to light a stairway, hall, or a darkened area.
Electrical light decorations have taken on new concepts with the emerging of recessed lighting. There are two parts to recessed lighting, the trim, and the housing. The trim comes in a variety of styles to accommodate different lighting applications that you need to be aware of when installing. There are also electrical codes for the housing unit in recessed lights that need to be followed when remodeling or building a home.
Recessed lighting takes on a completely new approach to lighting a home. By using a combination of light fixtures, you can change the appearance of a room, give the appearance of depth and openness, or add shades of warmth through directional or diffuse applications. Recessed lighting can change the way you view the rooms in your home with just a flick or turn off the switch. The combining of different light treatments can bring harmony and balance into your home.
