Narration of light and shadow in a day | Situational application of home lamps and lanterns

Narrating with light is already a long-standing habit of people.

Every night after humans learn to use fire, they use "light" to describe the appearance of our life: in the dark tropical forest, the raging campfire reflects every face; in the cold snow hut, the warmth beside the rocking chair A fireplace; a nightlight for late-coming families in a towering apartment building.
No matter what kind of story we want to tell in the space, we use the language of light to describe the plot of life with different lights and atmospheres at different times and places, making the story of the home more lively, warm and touching. And these scenes are all exclusive to us and belong to the memory of our family.

Let us learn how to write light and record our daily rhythm of life.

Make a pot of hot tea in the study room in the morning,
light up the table lamp, and start the morning reading for the day.

▲ Laito Gentle table lamp

Even in the daytime, the desk lamp is quite important for long reading. In the space, natural light is the mainstay, supplemented by the key lighting of the table lamp, so that the love of reading will not become a burden on the eyes.

After lunch, live peacefully with laziness,
read a novel by the window, and let this afternoon be quiet in the plot.

▲ China LED Standing Light

In addition to providing brightness for reading, standing lamps use light to smudge and smudge the wall, or use light and dark contrasts to create high or low light and shadow level changes in the space.

At night, the family members returned home one after another,
the smell of the kitchen came out, and some people's stomachs were already growling.

▲ Mist chandelier

Create a "theatre sense" with table lamps, reduce the auxiliary brightness in the space, leave the table pendant lights to improve the contrast between light and shadow, and create a light field like a theater stage for the dining area. In the middle of the stage, the lively and noisy drama among the family is being staged every day.

Outside the window, the aftermath of the city’s lights are gradually extinguished. In
the night battle with the lights on, the opponent to be defeated is myself who is not working hard enough.

▲ Mumu chandelier

Working overtime at night and lighting a lamp, in addition to using the light to focus the sight and improve concentration, it can also avoid the contrast glare produced by the high-brightness computer screen, which will cause eye fatigue for a long time. Come on, keep fighting.

#23:00
At the bar in the middle of the night, the children are asleep,
the world of two people in the dark, the words that are spoken, the volume is very light, but the weight is always heavy.

▲Castle S chandelier

Regularly arranged small chandeliers, in a limited range of light, the bright and dark parts of the lights will tightly surround each other, creating a world for two people, and the subtle facial expressions of each other under the lights are like close-up shots in movies, important and meaningful significance.

#24:00
It's getting late at night. After unloading the tiredness of the whole day,
I grabbed a book and got into bed. I fell asleep accidentally, and the story in the book turned into a dream tonight.

▲ Mumu wall lamp

In addition to providing the brightness needed for reading before going to bed, the projection of the wall lamp directs the visual focus to a plant or a small souvenir on the bedside table. Under the comfortable low-color warm white light, it is just a good thing to accidentally fall asleep.

Through the application of lamps and lanterns, various situations are created in the space.

Whether you are operating all kinds of lamps you already have at home, or you are planning your future home, you want to reserve a light atmosphere for the space. By understanding the characteristics of various types of lamps and being familiar with the narrative vocabulary of light and atmosphere, I picked up the pen and began to record the wonderful stories in the light and shadow for the life between lighting and turning off the lights every day.
