There will always come a time in a home owner's life that they start to feel like their home is not what it used to be.
When people move in to a property they are excited and go a bit decorating mad and usually end up changing quite a lot.
But as life progresses those changes can feel dated and in need of a spruce up.
Unfortunately though the cost involved in redecorating an entire house can be a bit prohibitive.
One way to revamp your home without redecorating is to use lighting.
There is such a wide range of lighting available now that you can always find something that will work perfectly for your needs.
Not only is lighting good for illuminations, it can also make a room feel more dynamic and almost more alive.
Here are some examples of how you can use lighting to revamp your home.
Mood lighting While any lighting engineer may scoff at the term 'mood lighting' it is a simple way of explaining what lighting can be used to do.
For example, by applying coloured lighting to a bathroom that was previously lit with a standard 60W bulb, you can change a room that was a bit drab into something out of a movie.
You can set up your lights to change colours smoothly as you soak in a hot tub, set lights around your mirror to pretend you are a diva and have sparkling LED lights in your ceiling for a star-like effect.
Exterior Lighting You may have seen this done with castles and other local monuments as they seem to glow out of the darkness.
You can achieve the same affect with your home by using exterior lighting that projects up onto your walls.
You can pick out certain design elements of your home or maybe a tree that will make you feel like you are arriving home to a completely new house.
Floor lighting It is possible to get innovative new LED systems of light that can be fitted into the floor around your whole house.
These can reduce your energy costs as LED are much more energy efficient, plus they can allow you to remove your traditional wall lights and other interior light sources.
This new source of light from below will give every room in the house a new feel.
As you can see lighting of all kinds is available for you to use to revamp your home.
The possibilities are only limited by your imagination and budget so get switched on now.
