A mistake I've made is not using the same brand lighting. Color temperatures are not the same from different brands even if it says they are the same on the packaging.

Yes, this is a very good point! The color produced can be slightly different depending on the quality of the bulbs.

This is my first (well, technically second :D) proper 'talking head' style video, so please be kind! I wasn't sure initially on producing this type of video, but I wanted to share and dive deeper into design topics and challenges which is almost impossible to do with full 'B-roll' clips, so hopefully this is something you find valuable as well. If you do, let me know what topics you want me to cover next. The most upvoted comment/topic suggestion will be made into a video in the upcoming weeks.

Really interesting video. During lockdown I realized that smart bulbs are a lifesaver, since I have only one room for working and sleeping, the bright white light helped me stay awake during winter and work, and in the evening I dimmed it and changed it to cozy yellow to get into sleeping mode (+ screen color changers like f.lux) and it really helped me to keep a good rhythm :)

Great video! Loved how you provided a comprehensive lesson on home lighting, with clear examples. I'd be interested in a video about choosing artwork and decor, and distributing it throughout the spaces in a harmonious manner in a way that adds, rather than detracts, from the whole look.

I rarely comment on youtube, but after looking for videos about lighting all day, this is the most useful, helpful video I’ve come across. Thank you for posting and explaining these concepts!

My dude your videos are so chock full of quality information that I had to subscribe after only 2 videos

I was JUST thinking about how I’d really appreciate a video about properly lighting a space (we’re moving soon and I’m really excited about all the possibilities!) and this showed up at the perfect time. These tips are GREAT! I love how you described the how and the why behind different types of light/lighting. I’ll be coming back to this video again and again, I’m sure.

It would be great if you could please do a video on the 60-30-10 rule. I understand how balancing out your colour palette in this way makes for a cohesive space that is easy on the eyes… but I have trouble with working out what items the “60%” should apply to and so on.

@threalharrydubois

I hope you found your answers in the meantime. if not, maybe this helps: You can use this "rule" for every aspect of design (design means, not "what" we do, but "how" we do it). for Interior Design, It starts with your intention of the space. Lets say you have a three room apartment, and want to combine living with dining room. Lets say you want big focus on the social interactions. So stuff like the sofa & dining table would be the biggest aspects of the room, maybe crossing "highways" in some way, and would have aspects of your "main colour" on your chosen palette. f.e: if your maincolour is green, sofa could be green, and the cushions on the dining seats could be green. Having a small space ? no problem: brighter sofacolour (maybe your secondary colour, or something neutral), and big sofa cushions with your main colour green. the third, or "accent" colour would be decoration. You can apply the same principle with lighting. Its all about your intention with the space! Want to combine your workspace with a small living/chillout area ? well. use your maincolour green on the wall where your desk is, use plants .... and in this case, you could use lighting as main source of routing your attention: Big lamp, spotlight of some sort, and/or very suttle/additional lighting in the small chillout area, the seat/sofa of that area in the secondary colour, third colour sprinkled in the room with decor (your wallpaper, whats on display, etc.). Obviously these are just examples, and you have to evaluate your own space and intentions, how and what colours suits your place, etc. So, see the 60% as your main focus of attention. If the space is for working, dont put a heavy flaming red sofa and a flatscreen in the same room, taking up 2/3 of the room. I highly recommend thinking about your intentions of space, before you start with colours. How you define spaces, and place interiour plays an even bigger role imo. I hope this helps!

I love philips hue, the only lights I use. Sometimes even the option with color as indirect light. For hallway and bathroom I use neutral light, around 4000k

Amazing video, no unnecessary blah-blah-blah just important information

Reynard…thank you so much for teaching me about lighting. I knew what I liked I just didn’t know what it was called nor where to get it. I love ambient lighting and I love lamps and warm tones.I really don’t care for overhead ceiling lights but you’ve shown me the necessity of them and another way to use them as well. If I had my way, I would like to see the same type of tutorial only this time featuring sound. I love the fact that I can have the same music that will flow in every room of my home,as well as featuring some of the latest innovations in sound. Thank for sharing your expertise👍🏾

Thanks to this video I was finally able to fix the lighting temperature in our home. Incorporating warm white lightings in our room indeed made it more cozy. Keep on doing more videos like this :)

Thank you! As someone with little knowledge of interior design, this really helped me figure out what tempatures to put in what rooms to create a better feeling environment.

Thank you so much for addressing everything I needed to know! 3 of my Airbnb guests have complained about the lighting and I was getting frustrated to understand the challenge but you've answered all my frustration🙏🏾

just bought a new apartment and this is now my bible. thank you.

Great tips. A lot of people have horrible lighting in their homes. Only a very bright and cold ceiling lamp etc. My parents always had different smaller light sources in our home and it was always cosy.

I have way too much Phillips hue and I love it.

Great information! Thank you for the concise, quality information. Homes are so much more livable and comfortable when the lighting is done well!

I've watched this several times. Thank you for being so thorough!!!

All these tips are very valuable for people who don't have much experience in interior design and decor and need to improve the lighting in certain spaces. I recently bought an Arco lamp at Barcelona Designs because I really liked its design and it has turned out to be a very good choice for my reading sessions, but I still need to improve the lighting in other areas. Thanks for these recs!

Thank you so much for this informative video! This will really be helpful when I’m looking for light bulbs that produce a warm glow rather than the harsh glare that the “daylight’ ones produce. Fantastic video!

I always struggled with finding the right light temperature but now I learned so much. Thank you for all the effort.

This was such a useful video! I've been watching your channel for a little while now and have loved the emphasis on lighting. Recently, I was trying to find a good source of simple information around lighting a space and couldn't find anything. This was exactly what I had been looking for!

Love how this video is straight gets straight to it and loaded with information! Im moving from a studio to a much larger apartment that I plan to be in for the foreseeable future. Going to need a lot of tips to make it more livable. You got a new subscriber 😄👍

This is my second video I watched by you and I am impressed! When I want to learn "How To", the how it works details, the examples, and recommendations are exactly what I look for. You nailed them all! Thank you for creating this content.

I didn't know smart bulbs exist! It is definitely a good investment.

As someone just purchased and moved in to our own home, your videos are so educational, thorough, and easy to follow! Thank you for making these videos, they really make this process so much less daunting and more interesting and fun! Thank you Reynard

Love your videos! They are concise with a lot of info. I really like that you give us examples of what you are telling us. The examples in this video were fantastic. As with almost all your videos I watch them multiple times as there is so much information. Your voice cadence is perfect, not too fast making it difficult to comprehend or too slow that we feel frustrated.

My evening atmosphere tonight is so nice now that you've taught me to avoid mismatching color temperatures. It so happens the stove top light and bathroom light have the same temperature, so with just those 2 warm lights far away from the window, I can see the lights of the buildings outside 👍❤❤

This was so comprehensive and I really appreciate the extra effort to show the different temperatures, styles, and placements! Thank you!

The beautifully made video gave me on-point tips and tricks which I could use for my new home. Thanks so much! Really, amazing video content with visual examples.

Outstanding video! Really helpful. I'm realizing that my house has a lack of good lightning, which makes everything feel gloomy at night. I always thought we needed to have a stronger light in the ceiling so we were always changing the light bulbs instead of adding other lamps to compliment it.

Very informative, peaceful, professional, and yet modest. Thank you

Your videography and compositing and editing and colour grading skills are very aesthetically pleasing. I feel calm.

Finally found the video I needed. thank you for all the efforts put into this.

Love this video so much!! It is such a struggle for me to do lighting designs, as I do not have a false ceiling to play with. But with this video, really learned a lot more! Thanks so much!!!

Thank you so much for explaining it so well! I'm slowly learning how to design my first home to be more cohesive and understanding interior design and you really put it in a simplistic but detailed way to understand! Great job :D

A video on creating a cohesive color palette would be a great follow up

Excellent coverage of this important subject! I especially appreciated the tutorial on light temperatures and their proper use. I follow and love all your videos. They are well done, informative and inspiring. Thank you for the more thoughtful pace, it makes watching a relaxed experience (most design videos are fast-paced, and more frenetic). Looking forward to more.

Informative and totally understandable--yet, I haven't considered lighting as great way of tying together the atmospheric feeling of the room. I now have an appreciation for the importance of layering light. Thanks! I would love to see a video on decorating a room with high ceiling. This is my current remodeling challenge. Ugh.

thank you. this was so helpful! GOD bless you!

Thanks for all the info. I’ve been relying on ceiling lights, never thought about layering. Thanks.

Thank you! I rolled my eyes when you were explaining colour temps but boy did I get schooled by the end of the video. Didn't skip once, subbed too - thanks for taking the time to make this

Thank you so much for these tips. I am in a process of building my own home. I kind of know a little basic but this help me know them in more details.

I'm a freelancer and provide 3D Interior design services and your videos really help me thank you so much.

Great video! Super simple, straight to point and practical. Layering lighting was such a useful concept. Thank you so much.

I'd like to add that cold white/ "daylight" bulbs can be useful for brightening up dark rooms at daytime, whether it be because the room is very large, has few windows or is on a north side, or you just need light to work. On a bright and sunny day, the blue light will seem natural (like "bringing more sun" into the room), at night, warm white will feel more natural.

What you are referring to is called circadian lighting, and it's being implemented and healthcare and nursing home facilities. Artificial daylight during the day helps maintain energy, and towards the end of the day the warmer light tells the body to slow down for eventual sleep.

Great point. Ive discovered this after endlessly experimenting with my smart bulbs. Soft white during the day with the sun shining through the windows feels more natural and energetic without being too harsh. And warm lights at night feels more relaxing and calming. The "orange" color setting on my particular bulbs produce a very warm light that works really well. Although orange can sometimes have too much red in it to create a relaxing ambiance, with these particular bulbs its more of a very warm white.

Calling alexa aleck was such a smart idea. Prevented her from going off in the middle of the video

Thank you so much for the video. I love how concise and easy-to-understand your explanation was!

Damn. I was looking for 2700k vs 3000k video and stumbled here and enjoyed every second of it.

Great video! It’s really helpful, especially for someone like me living in Sweden where light in winter is soooo important 😂 next topic could be: how to use and combine colors in a harmonious, balanced way, how to work with textures and surfaces for different rooms, how to make small apartments feel more spacious

Very good video! Appreciated the simple and strong focus on think in the explanation. I really like the quite slower description with images but almost no blank spots of speech. :)

I really enjoy your videos, they have helped me understand the science and art of creating an aesthetic and functional room. I would love a video on living/dining room combo in a small space, as i am struggling to utilize my space correctly. I have the couch right behind the table and there's no room to have a conversation area. Thanks!

That was great, comprehensive and conceptual, yet also full of practical tips. Excellent, can't believe it's only your second video of this type. And I am hard to please!

For a first jab at this kind of video, you did an amazing job ! I’m looking to redecorate my studio, and these tips helped a lot !! Keep up the great work Reynard ✨

I subscribed because I enjoyed your very thoughtful and easily followed video. I have also watched the one about art in spaces as well as rug sizes for you space. You did a great job and your voice is very easy to listen to. Good job. I am more of a traditional decorator. I noticed that most of your pictures go toward the modern, minimalistic style of design. Perhaps you can do a video of more traditional/vintage style homes. I can't be the only one that loves these old things.

Great video and great explanation of every aspect of interior lighting :D Maybe next step could be choosing the right color palette or furniture overall following different styles (industrial, mid century, scandinavian, japanese, ect)

This is actually an incredibly helpful video thank you! I didn't find this kind of information anywhere else.

Blue White light , 6000 K, helped me immensely in fighting winter blues in the north. I only use it in the morning and the bulbs are very bright. In the evening I only use very warm, dimmed indirect light.
