NEUTRAL WHITE LIGHT
Neutral white light is somewhere in between, not so white and not so yellow, more like natural daylight, and is between 3000K and 5000K. A cozy light that does not modify the perception of colors and is an excellent solution for make-up areas, painting room or a closet.
WARM WHITE LIGHT
Warm white light, with a lower amount of Kelvin degrees, between 2000K and 3500K, emits a more yellow tone and is more used in casual and cozy environments, such as the living room, leisure room and bedrooms. The intention is to provide comfort, relaxation, warmth and peace, sometimes even to make the decoration more sophisticated and, depending on the intensity, it can even cause drowsiness. It is important to emphasize that the color temperature has no influence on the energy consumption of the lamp, it does not use more or less energy depending on its hue, but according to its power. The higher the power, the higher your energy consumption.
THE RIGHT LIGHT IN DECORATION
Have you ever stopped to think about why there is such a difference in light in the numerous commercial and leisure spaces we frequent? It is not by chance …
A technology store will have a white light, as the intention is to make the customer agitated and motivated to buy.
We go to a bar and find a yellow light or candles in super warm tones. This happens because the aim is to make people relaxed to the point of staying longer.
However, games of light can be created or use both lighting to minimize defects or highlight important points in the decoration.
THE LIGHT IN STREET LIGHTING
And in public lighting is it different? No, even outdoors, light management must be considered intelligently. When walking through the streets, the light should attract the attention of pedestrians and motorists, so the ideal is to use lamps that have a cold color temperature since they are related to the emission of white light and awaken the state of alert. In this case, lamps with 5000K are more used in the street lighting market, outdoor lighting, commercial and industrial lighting.
In turn, warm yellow colors make environments more relaxing. Therefore, they can be highlighted in park projects and other leisure areas. However, for streets and roads, it is a mistake to prefer yellowish lamps to white ones.
We hope that this article and all this information is useful to you. Good projects!
