Light Your Home, Lift Your Mood

Mood Lighting

Take a theatrical approach, advises Bruce Rogers, an architect and lighting designer in Evanston, Illinois, who uses light to define areas, such as seating groups, while leaving darker spaces between each area.

Control a room’s mood with dimmers. Use dimmer switches and lamps to set the ambience in each room. With an innovative, customized lighting system from Lutron called RadioRA, you can individually control your lights via radio frequency, without having to run fresh wires throughout the house.
