Indirect lighting and direct lighting for interior decoration---Olibao Art Paint

Lighting is an important part of home decoration. Both natural lighting and lighting have a great influence on the atmosphere of the home. Indoor lighting is just like the effect of light on imaging in photography, a reasonable lighting method---Olibao Art Paint

It can not only change the quality of home lighting, but also enhance the spatial visual effect of the room. According to light distribution and lighting effects, it can be divided into direct lighting and indirect lighting. Next, I will introduce the difference and design techniques of these two lighting methods.

1. Direct lighting and indirect lighting

Direct lighting is the main lighting we commonly use. Generally, there is only one main light source in a space, which directly casts the light on the illuminated object.

Indirect lighting is the popular design of no main lamp, also called reflection lighting. Indirect lighting is not directly projecting the light source to the illuminated object, but a kind of lighting effect after the light source is projected to the wall, floor, ceiling and other places and reflected. ---Olibao Art Paint

The brightness of direct lighting is relatively high, which can produce a strong contrast between light and dark, which can highlight the main position of a space in the overall environment. However, due to the high brightness, direct exposure for a long time will cause glare (the light directly enters the eyes). feel. Indirect lighting uses reflective light sources to illuminate, and the generated light can effectively reduce direct glare. Indirect lighting uses soft light to embellish the entire space, increasing the sense of space and layering of the indoor environment, and achieves the effect of beautifying the environment. Undoubtedly, indirect lighting is loved by more people.

Second, the advantages and disadvantages of indirect lighting

advantage:

1. The light is soft and beautiful

Indirect lighting illuminates a part of the reflected light, which is very close to the natural light, forming an effect of seeing the light but not the light, thus creating a hazy beauty. ---Olibao Art Paint

2. Easy to clean

Compared with a large main lamp with a complicated shape and a large number of bulbs, the lamps used for indirect lighting will be easier to clean than the crystal chandelier.

Disadvantages:

1. Cost of electricity,

The lighting effect of indirect lighting is weaker than that of direct lighting and cannot directly illuminate the surface of the object. Therefore, it is generally necessary to install multiple lamps to achieve the same brightness. In this way, the power consumption is relatively large, and it is not environmentally friendly. ---Olibao Art Paint

2. High construction cost

Indirect lighting construction consumes a lot of building materials and labor costs. For example, indirect lighting is generally hidden by the ceiling. If you do not plan to install the ceiling, you need to set up an additional false ceiling. Therefore, the overall construction cost is relatively high.

Three, indirect lighting design skills

There are usually two ways to install indirect lighting:

1. Install the light source in the light trough, and then hit the light to the ceiling, wall, and ground, and then reflect it to the room as indirect light.

2. The opaque lampshade is installed under the light source, and the light is reflected by the lampshade to other places to form indirect lighting.

Three factors affecting indirect lighting:

1. The gap problem

The light diffusion effect has an important relationship with the gap. The farther the light source is from the irradiated surface, the larger the light diffusion range, and uniform illumination can be obtained. When the gap is not enough, the light is not diffused enough, the light does not look natural enough, and a strong contrast between light and dark will be formed. ---Olibao Art Paint

2. The surface material of the decorative surface affects reflection

The material of the interior decoration surface will affect the reflection of light. The decoration surface has a rough texture, and the light will diffuse and diffuse to produce a soft lighting effect. The surface of the decorative surface is relatively smooth and shiny, the light source will be mapped into it, and the desired lighting effect will not be achieved.

3. Shading the light

The relationship between the shading light and the position of the light source affects the spread of the light source. The right shading can make the reflected light hit the wall directly, the transparency is extremely strong, and the lighting effect is also good. After determining the position of the light source, design an ideal shading to maximize the overall effect of the light. ---Olibao Art Paint
