Your guide to Building on a Budget

Lighting

Lighting in a home and lighting of the home, can be a great source of ambiance. You will also need to ensure there is enough lighting in all living areas and work areas of the project.

I don't particularly like overhead lighting. It's useful to light up an area and you should plan for it. I tend to ensure there is alternative lighting for mood. Low voltage lighting is an excellent choice for indirect lighting. It is cost effective and can be used in many ways. I use deck lighting for stairwells and mood lighting. You just need to have somewhere you hide the transformer and switched plugs to run them.

There are many lighting choices available and we will post pics for ideas here soon.
