Types+of+Lighting

__**Different types of lighting**__


 * Traditional**

Traditional wall lighting is more often decorative rather than practical. It adds soft lighting to the room through candle shaped bulbs concealed behind parchment shades, they are designed as a feature to look at rather than see or read by.




 * Enclosed fittings**

Enclosed fittings are useful in a hall, landing, porch or in a bathroom. Many of these designs are weatherproof and therefore are suitable in a damp bathroom area.




 * Spotlights**

Spotlights are very fashionable and versatile as they can send beams in any direction when mounted on adjustable arms. They can be used to light up cupboards, desks, pictures, mirrors or seating areas. However you must be careful when positioning a spotlight to avoid dazzle when seen from another angle. This problem is easily overcome when the lighting is high up the wall.




 * Fluorescent**

Fluorescent tubes can spread light much further over an area. They are not as fashionable as spotlights, but it is possible to get bright lights with little heat given off. They are more efficient than filament lights at turning electricity into light and cheaper to run. They are easy to decorate around a room.

Fluorescent lighting tubes give off different types of light. The cold, whiter lights are particularly useful in a loft, workshop or shed. In the house do not choose a blue or greenish shade, as they are bad for your eyes if used alone and also can make you look ill. It is better to choose ayellow colour for a softer lighting effect. There are a variety of diffuser shades on the market, which soften the glare.
