No home is without lighting units, of all types, due to their great importance in function and aesthetic appearance, so you must choose your home lighting units carefully. You cannot do this without knowing their different types and the uses of each one
Chandeliers
One of the most popular lighting products, they hang from the ceiling to give an aesthetic appearance and also to provide enough light to cover the size of the room in which they are hung.
Pendants
Pendants are also popular like chandeliers, but most of them are smaller in size and different in shape, and hang from the ceiling through chains or a metal rod. Pendants also provide downward lighting and are often found above a table or in the middle of the kitchen ceiling.
Spotlights
Recessed lamps are installed in the ceiling so that the body of the lamp is hidden in the ceiling and only its surface is visible, unlike chandeliers and pendants hanging from the ceiling, which can be easily seen.
Spot lighting is more delicate and warm because it is level with the ceiling, but it requires a space of four to eight inches above the ceiling for installation.
Ceilings
Ceilings are one of the most important types of lighting, because they are often installed at eye level in most rooms. They can be either up or down lights, providing general lighting and focused lighting for a specific task such as reading, depending on the installation, but they are rarely strong enough to provide enough light alone to illuminate a large area. They are often found on the sides of a chandelier or bed for additional lighting.
Lampshades
Lampshades are largely used as task lights because they are flexible and can be placed in different locations as needed (such as next to a comfortable reading chair or above a work desk). They usually provide light in a downward direction, illuminating the surface directly below it rather than providing general lighting.
Lamps
The function of a lamp is very similar to that of a lampshade, as a lamp is classified as a type of task lighting. It can be directed and focused on a specific place to perform a specific task such as reading, for example, and is placed directly on the floor.
Light dishes and polveniras:
They are used in the event that you want to have a distinctive decor and intense lighting and are preferred in places where focused lighting is required such as bathrooms and kitchens.
