In our last blog, we talked about building your game room and what it needed for seating, gaming, and entertaining. At Accent Lighting in Wichita, we want to be the lighting store that you can trust for the best selection and the best prices, no matter what room you’re building or updating. In this post, we’re going to take a look at the bedroom and how you can design and improve the space for optimal comfort.

The Sleeping Area

When you think about your bedroom, the first area that likely comes to mind is where you lay down your head for a good night’s sleep. You spent a lot of time choosing the perfect bed frame and mattress, and it’s only fitting that you should have the perfect lighting for this area.

Since the bed isn’t in the middle of the room, the main fixture isn’t going to be above the sleeping area, and that’s where options such as bedside table lamps are appropriate. After you turn the main light off for the night, you want to be able to see as you climb into bed or while you read for a bit before you turn in. The lighting near your bed should be warm and inviting, and help you relax, whether you’re unwinding at the end of the day or waking up on the weekend.

The Dressing Area

Depending on the size of your bedroom, the dresser or wardrobe can take up quite a bit of space. If you have a full-length mirror in the dressing area, it’s important to have the proper lighting so that you can see what a certain outfit looks like, or if a certain accessory will go with the clothes you’ve chosen for the day. Recessed lighting can be a great option for the perimeter of the bedroom, and it can provide illumination for you to see how you look before you leave for the office or head out for a night on the town with friends.

The Closet Area

While many closets are simply used for storage, there are some homeowners who want that grand walk-in closet that has room for all their clothes, shoes, and perhaps even a chair that makes putting on those shoes even easier. If you’ve envisioned a large closet that has racks and drawers galore, then it’s imperative to have the proper lighting for the area. A small chandelier or pendant light can make a great statement in the middle of the space, and recessed lighting around the perimeter can help you see as you choose your apparel. In-drawer and under-cabinet lighting can provide the illumination you need when picking out a tie or a pair of dress shoes, and they also add to the overall ambiance of the space.
If you’re building a new house, or you’re thinking about updating your bedroom, make sure lighting is at the top of your list. New bedroom lighting can transform a tired, outdated space into an inviting and comfortable one, and you may find that you spend more time in the room than you did before.

When you’re shopping for bedside lamps, recessed fixtures, or pendant lights, the experts at Accent Lighting can help you find the ideal options. We can assist you with design choices and answer questions you have about lighting styles, efficiency, and much more. Above all, we want you to feel confident that you made the right choice in contacting or visiting our showroom in Wichita, and that the lights you go home with will be ones that love using for years to come.

We look forward to meeting you!
