Most Korean apartments use lighting that shines only downward, like direct lighting. But even the best use of indirect lighting can transform your home into a truly hotel-like atmosphere. 🚩Three Ways to Use Lighting Effectively 1️⃣ Use Mood Lighting If you only use one main light shining down from above, your eyes will constantly strain. Adding just one indirect light makes your home feel much more comfortable and cozy. 2️⃣ Utilize Walls and Corners Most apartments only light the floor, but illuminating walls and corners makes the space appear more three-dimensional, making your home feel more spacious. 3️⃣ Divide the Lighting Don't just use one light to make it look bright. By dividing the lighting into two or three different functions, your home's mood will soften significantly. And here's an important point: If you start with colored or expensive lighting, it'll actually be more difficult. So, I really recommend practicing with IKEA lighting first. When I bought my apartment, I got a feel for it by trying out several of these. ✔ Furtiophyra / Pendant Light (around 20,000 won) It's great for hanging over a dining table or table. It's perfect for creating the center of a space, so there's a low chance of failure. ✔ Blosberg / Pendant Light (around 30,000 won) It's a voluminous type, making it a great alternative to direct lighting. The soft light makes it easy to create a living room mood. ✔ Togarp / Floor Stand Light (around 20,000 won) Place it in a corner and it'll bring the wall to life, making the space suddenly seem more spacious. It's great for both mood lighting and reading lights. In an apartment, practicing with these cost-effective lighting options, getting a feel for brightness, location, and quantity and then deciding on an interior design direction is a much safer way to find your own style. I also failed a lot(?) in my Seoul apartment, and it was a huge help when I was building my house. Try out the IKEA cost-effective lighting. After using it for about 3 months, you'll see exactly, "Ah, this is my style." If it continues to bother you until then, then it's not my style 😆 #Today'sHouse #스페셜크리에이터 #오늘의집크리에이터
