Light your home - Liz Wilhide

This essential book of lighting provides all the practical advice, expert guidance and inspiration you need to create lighting schemes for your home that are both functional and decorative. Covering all the latest lighting techniques and designs, Light Your Home offers stylish solutions for every room and a range of budgets. Light Your Home explains the principles of good lighting and shows how to light a home for function and efficiency, as well as how to generate magical effects with one of the most inspirational of all interior elements. As well as creating moods, lighting can alter the appearance of an interior, changing the colours of walls, flooring and soft furnishings, and create dramatic effects with light, shadow and pattern. It is the perfect decorative tool, and many light designs are works of art in their own right and can be admired for their ornamental or sculptural quality alone.
