Choosing the right product for your space
To find the right product(s), you need to assess your space and needs. Consider the size, layout, and purpose of each room. Identify areas where ambient, task, or accent lighting is needed.

Choosing the right color temperature for your space
Choosing the right color temperature for different types of lighting, such as ambient, accent, and task lighting, is crucial for creating the desired atmosphere and functionality in a space. Color temperature is measured in Kelvins (K), and it indicates the warmth or coolness of a light.
Warm and Cozy
- For a warm and cozy atmosphere, consider using warm color temperatures ranging from 2700K to 3000K.
Neutral and Balanced
- In spaces where you want a more neutral and balanced light, opt for color temperatures between 3500K and 4100K. This creates a comfortable and inviting environment without being too warm or cool.
Modern and Cool
- For a modern and cool ambiance, especially in commercial or industrial settings, choose color temperatures such as 4100K and 5000K.
Additional tips:
- Consider the room’s color scheme and decor when selecting lighting color temperatures. Warm lighting can complement warm-colored interiors, while cooler lighting can work well in contemporary or minimalist spaces.
- Experiment with different color temperatures and lighting combinations to find the right balance for your specific spaces and needs.
- Try our Varien Dim-to-Warm series. This revolutionary product family intuitively modifies its Kelvin temperature from a pleasant 3000K to a soothing, candlelit 1800K, all in response to your adjustment of a standard wall dimmer.
