Lighting System
Different lighting system are utilize for different spaces and functions. Instead of installing or changing lighting systems at once, it is more cost effective to have single lighting system that is flexible enough to accommodate multiple user needs.
In general, the lighting system utilized demonstrates uniform lighting and accent lighting.

Uniform lighting is ideal for activities that require visual attention such as reading, writing or simple open gathering with family or guest.

Alternately for later in the night with less demanding visual task, accent lighting may be turned on to set mood and a soothing ambience. This is achieved with warm light perfect for relaxation and unwinding with activities such as chatting, drinking, watching movies and so on.
