Check out our favourite ideas to brighten up your loft conversion.
1. Plan for lots of natural light
The best lighting for loft conversions (and most remodels) is natural light, it’s an obvious choice because everything looks and feels better in natural light.
If you can maximise and harness the natural light which comes into your newly converted loft or attic room, this is half the battle. Speak to your contractors about creating as much natural light as possible.
You can create more natural light with:
· Roof light windows (aka sky lights)
· Dormer windows
· Floor-to-ceiling gable end window
· Balconies
· Sky Lanterns
2. Spotlights
Loft Conversions Lighting can always benefit from the use of spotlights. They are a popular option in loft conversions. Since they are installed in the ceiling itself, they don’t take up a lot of ceiling room, and they mimic natural daylight due to their brightness.
If your new loft room doesn’t have much natural light, spotlights are a great choice.
3. Wall lights
Wall lights create a nice warm glow inside, and one great benefit of wall lights is that you can adjust them to highlight certain features. This is perfect if your attic conversion will be used as a home office or a craft room because wall lights can be directed onto a workspace to give extra light where it is needed most.
4. Lamps
Lamps have a big part to play in creating comforting light within a loft space. They’re a convenient and flexible way to add brightness to your room and accessorise it at the same time.
5. LED strip lights
If your loft is destined to be either a bedroom or a fun kids or family hangout, you can use LED strip lights to add some colour and a bit of bling to the room. It’s a great way to add coloured lighting to your room.
