Best Small Home Lighting Ideas

Lighting makes a lot of difference to a room, especially to tiny houses. It is even more important to get the right lighting when you have limited space because it will create an illusion of a bigger space than it actually is.


Here are the best lighting ideas that you can mix and match to create that perfect lighting ambiance that fits your taste and preference:

1. Use Big Windows for Natural Lighting
No need to install expensive lighting systems when you can use natural lighting. Besides, natural light is best for tight spaces and it makes the room feel bigger and less claustrophobic. Big glass windows will let you see through the outside thereby letting the surrounding environment in.


2. Use Roof Windows for Natural Lighting
If your small room doesn’t have too much windows, you can still have lots of natural lighting. A good way to do this without touching your wall space is to use a roof window.  This works best if your room is near the roof of the house.


3. Use Hanging Lights
If you're in a very tight squeeze, you can use hanging lights as it maximizes your space. Use your artistic flare to create a creative lighting effect in your room.


4. Use Ceiling Fan with Lighting
Dual-purpose fixtures like a ceiling fan with lighting will maximize your space and improving your interior lighting. There are now many different models of ceiling fan with lighting in the market.


5. Use Recessed Lighting
When you have a small room, recessed lighting can help to reduce clutter as they are mostly attached to the ceiling.  That can allow the room more space to ‘breath’ and to allow you to showcase other stuff in your room.


6. Use Lighting under Wall Cabinets
If you have lots of wall cabinets for extra storage, you can install lighting under these cabinets in order to maximize space.


7. Use Wall-Mounted Lighting
If you want more cozy appeal, you can install wall-mounted lighting. Not only it will save space, it will also set the tone of your interior lighting. Use warm lights to help make your room cozy. Wall-mounted lights are perfect for those who read a lot of books since these can be shifted around with their flexible design construction.


8. Use a Lighting Centerpiece
Your lighting can be your tiny house centerpiece by mounting it on the center of the ceiling. This is one way where you can show it without taking more of your floor space.
