The colour temperature of the lighting should vary depending on the rhythm of the day, which means that the bright environment of the neutral in the morning increases our energy levels and at the same time our minds are refreshed. In the evening, it is advisable to adjust the lighting to a dimmer and warmer shade. This increases melatonin production and prepares the brain for sleep.

Proper lighting for different spaces

When designing the lighting in the home, the needs of the space, even general lighting and the possibility to adjust the light to create different moods must be taken into account.
