What is Lighting design?

In interior design, many consumers mistakenly perceive lighting design as simply selecting different types of lamps, determining wattage, choosing styles, and matching colors with the interior. However, in reality, this is an inaccurate concept.

Lighting design involves arranging light points, light streams, and suitable colors precisely in the necessary positions (functions) and with reasons. In essence, light is also a type of material (a soft material) that interacts with other materials, similar to concrete, paint, glass, etc. This material interacts with other materials to produce different results, depending on the adjustments made by the designer, resulting in effects such as creating images, paintings, transforming the image of objects through various directions of light.

How to choose lights for installation?

People often think that choosing a type of lamp with an appropriate wattage will achieve the desired lighting effect. For example, buying a 7w lamp, a 9w lamp, 25w lamp, etc.

This may have been true 10 or 20 years ago when the types of lamps available on the market were not diverse, and the wattage was not varied.

But in today’s era, 85% of people use LED bulbs. The types of LED lamps on the market are extremely diverse, with various wattages ranging from 1w to 1000w, and even odd numbers.

So, when buying lamps, how will you choose? Will you choose based on features or power consumption? It’s like when you want to move 50kg of goods into a warehouse, you hire someone to carry it, do you choose someone who can carry the 50kg load or someone who can eat four bowls of rice?

Tell the salesperson what lighting effects you want, how far it needs to illuminate, and what area it should cover. Instead of thinking simply about how many watts are enough.

Each lamp manufacturer has designs with different power outputs, and not every brand is the same as another. What you need is not just how many watts but whether its lighting efficiency is suitable for the space you need to install.

So when deciding to buy lamps, you should be able to answer the following questions:

What are you illuminating?
How do you want it illuminated?
And what type should you use to achieve that illumination?

If you cannot calculate this, ask a lighting design expert to help you calculate the appropriate lamp type, beam angle, luminous flux, and light color. Be cautious when installing a lighting system because it directly affects your health and the health of those around you.
