The redder the color of the light, the lower the color temperature. The bluer the color of the light, the higher the color temperature. Color temperature refers to the color of light, which can also be simply understood as the visual temperature brought to you by light. The unit is Kelvin (K), and 1 color temperature is 1K. The lower the K value, the warmer the light source, while the higher the K value, the colder the light source. ▪ A color temperature below 4000k is called warm light, giving people a warm and relaxed feeling. ▪ The color temperature between 4000k-6000k is called neutral light, which has a clear and refreshing feeling. ▪ If the color temperature exceeds 6000k, it is called a cold light source with a bluish color, giving a serious and cool feeling
Living room 4000-5000K
The living room is the main area for guests and family leisure, so the requirements for lighting are mainly bright and warm. Most of them use neutral light (around 4000-5000K). Depending on the decoration style and soft decoration design of each household, some ambient lighting such as light strips and spotlights can be installed to create a home decoration atmosphere.
Restaurant 3000-4000K
As an important dining area in the home, it is best to choose warm colors for lighting in the restaurant. Because psychologically speaking, eating under warm toned lighting has a greater appetite, it is best to choose a color temperature of 3000-4000K (neutral light), which will not distort the food too much and create a warm dining atmosphere.
Bedroom 2700-3000K
The bedroom is the main space for rest and relaxation, so the lighting should be warm and private enough. It is recommended to choose a warm light source. The color temperature should be controlled between 2700-3000K to achieve lighting conditions and create a warm and romantic atmosphere. The lighting fixtures above the bed should not look directly into the eyes as much as possible. You can choose to install light strips and anti glare spotlights to create an atmosphere, enrich the light, and make the lighting environment softer and more comfortable.
Passageway 3500-4000K
The hallway is the main passage connecting the living room, and the color temperature is controlled between 3500-4000K. In this case, the overall brightness is sufficient
For those with hanging pictures, you can choose to install spotlights, which provide a more aesthetic effect when illuminated by the hanging pictures
Kitchen 3500-4000K
The kitchen is the most functional area, with a series of dynamic spaces for washing, cutting, frying, and washing dishes. The color temperature is controlled between 3500-4000K, which not only improves the operator’s visibility, but also allows the dish to display the color that attracts the appetite.
Toilet 3000-4000K
The lighting effect of the bathroom is generally not very good, so neutral light (4000-4500K) is used. The bathroom environment looks bright and comfortable. Let me tell you a secret quietly again. Installing a light strip behind the mirror will definitely bring you a small surprise when making up!
The color temperature within a space must be unified, and it is important to avoid alternating color temperatures, which can cause dizziness and make the space appear disorganized and aesthetically pleasing.
