Walk-in closet: ideas for a perfect light

In a walk-in closet, the study and organization of spaces, their layout and the choice of internal equipment are essential but, without a perfect lighting, everything becomes useless. Walk-in closets are completely enclosed spaces, with the exception of the access door, so they do not get any natural or direct light. Therefore, a walk-in closet is one of the elements of the house that requires absolutely functional lighting, to immediately identify your outfit, see your clothes and their colours distinctly, mirror yourself and avoid the shadow effect. 

The colour of light for the walk-in closet  

The main need is to have a light as close as possible to natural light. It is advisable to have a neutral colour temperature of 4000K with high colour rendering. The light tone will be neither too cold nor too warm and the colours will be rendered realistically and perceived as natural.
