What is accent lighting? How to use it?
Do you want to light up an area of your home or a specific object? Choose accent lighting!
Accent lighting is that touch of additional light that is a must in your lighting project.
In fact, in a lighting project, accent lighting is used to spotlight a specific area or element, to make a specific space more charismatic and attractive and to create interesting contrasts.
Accent lighting is used, for example, to illuminate an environment or corner of the home used for specific purposes such as eating, working, reading, or to highlight objects such as a painting, shelf, work of art, statue or furnishing element.
Accent lighting has a light intensity that is three times more than the ambient light: it is used to create a point of interest and draw attention to a zone or an object, that become focal points.
An intense light gives style and interest to a space.
Without accent lighting, the perception of the environment is static and monotonous, while the presence of more luminous details makes a space more dynamic and interesting.
Accent lighting: the touch of additional light for your lighting design project.
Accent lighting: spotlights, track lights, suspended spotlights
Accent lighting includes fittings such as recessed spotlights, adjustable spotlights on tracks and decorative suspended spotlights with narrow light beam.
For example, recessed DOWLIGHTs that spotlight specific furnishing elements, or groups of suspended Novalux MINI TUBES, ideal to create accent lighting on the table. Other perfect products to create accent lighting in stores or exhibition spaces are the MIR spotlights mounted on a recessed 48V L-16 TRACK: Novalux solutions are conceived to create accent lighting, in both domestic and retail environments.
In a lighting design project that uses accent lighting, it is always important to achieve the right balance with the general lighting.
