A Guide to Lighting Artwork in A Home

At Flux, we understand the pivotal role that lighting plays in transforming a house into a warm and inviting home. One aspect that often requires careful consideration is the illumination of artwork. Here are some insightful tips on lighting artwork in a home, along with a closer look at various fixtures and the transformative impact of Ketra Lighting.

  1. The Art of Placement:

Proper placement of lighting fixtures is the first step in accentuating your art collection. Aim for a balance that eliminates shadows and highlights the intricate details of each piece. Consider adjustable fixtures to direct light precisely where it’s needed. Artwork location should be considered when designing a space so that the lighting layout can be adjusted accordingly.

Try to avoid placing your artwork in direct sunlight as it can cause fading and damage over time. Use window treatments to control natural light exposure.

 

  1. Picture-Perfect Fixtures:

Different types of fixtures cater to specific art display needs. Track lighting, wall-mounted fixtures, and recessed lights are popular choices. Track lighting allows flexibility in directing light, while wall-mounted fixtures offer a sleek and sophisticated look. Recessed lights are discreet and can be strategically placed for a seamless appearance.
