How is your living room lighting scene set up?

Following on from the previous article, this installment of Mr. Cactus presents the use of lighting in the living room. When it comes to this topic, let's first think about what the living room is generally used for.

Nothing more than to serve as a place to laze around, watch TV, meet guests, read, play and other entertaining places. The living room, is a highly open and fluid space. As an external place, is the need to have a certain charm, just rely on the design of the furniture is certainly not enough, the design and layout of the lighting is also crucial.

Lighting concept

Living room lighting and kitchen lighting is similar to the need for different lamps and light sources to form a multi-level lighting system, that specific with what kind of lamps? Lamps should be functional lighting, focusing on the TV back wall, sofa back wall and other key lighting; secondly, supplemented by ambient lighting, such as light strips on the surface, floor lamps, table lamps, etc. so that the living room lighting rich sense of hierarchy, the space will be more full of light!

The so-called lighting scene is the use of one or several kinds of lighting fixtures to meet the demand for light under the specific activities of people in this space.

Scenes are realized by controlling the switching of multiple circuits. (The following diagrams are a simple simulation of a living room using DIALuxEVO software for several scenarios so that everyone can understand)

This is a CAD drawing of the living room part of the fixture circuit, *** there are 6 circuits such as ABCDEF and other circuits

People meeting scenario, ABCDEF the 6 circuits are fully open + 2 lamps open

Leisure scenario, C. D circuit open + 2 lamps open

Leisure scenario, C. D circuit open + 2 lamps open

Leisure scenarios, C. D circuit open + 2 lamps open, D circuits on + 2 lamps on; A, B, E, F circuits off

Movie watching scene, D circuit on; A, B, C, E, F circuits off; lamps off

A living room parlor scene (play, friends gathering and other activities)

Living room parlor scene that means we have relatively more demand for lighting in the living room, no longer just some of the low-level lighting, but the need to provide some specific activity illumination (such as playing cards, cleaning, etc.), to create a bright light environment.

In order to meet the meeting scene on the living room lighting needs, so we have to meet the living room leisure scene on the basis of adding some functional lighting.?

① Grid spotlight + strip light, this match can create a simple and bright slightly layered space lighting environment.

② Strip spotlights, a reasonable arrangement of strip lights on the ceiling with a sense of design can also create a bright and colorful living room light environment.

③ If you add a dimming function to the lamps, adjust the output ratio, so that your living room lighting can meet the needs of both the guest scene, but also to meet the needs of the leisure scene, then the flexible use of dimming is also one of the indispensable conditions of the living room lighting design.

Second, the living room of the leisure scene (daze, watching TV and other activities)

Living room of the leisure scene that is that we are in the living room of the lighting needs are not a lot, but can not be no, the need to provide the general activities of the illumination (such as tea pouring) to create a relaxing environment for people.

So the question arises, how about the lamps to create a both comfortable and relaxing leisure scene?

① Light strip (indirect light source). General installation of the location of the strip has a groove to facilitate the hiding of the strip, to achieve the application of the lamps and lanterns of the highest realm "see the light, not see the light" effect. Staying in such a space will feel very comfortable. Lighting on the surface, as long as the light emitted to meet the needs of the leisure scene on the illumination can be.

② strip light (indirect light source) + floor lamp (decorative light source), floor lamps issued by the light is generally located in the middle of the space to play a very good fill light effect, modeling on the space has a certain degree of decorative, and can be moved to the location, relatively flexible.

3 buried lights, using the way to wash the background wall, and then the light through the wall reflection or refraction to meet the demand for light space, to achieve a rich space illumination function.

Three, the living room scene

The living room scene is that we put the projection screen in the living room to watch a movie when the scene, different from the scene when we watch in the movie theater, surrounded by darkness, it will be surrounded by some weak silhouette light, to support the atmosphere.
