Your Office Lighting Might Be Making the Place Look Cheap
Lighting can make expensive furniture look cheap and simple furniture look good. It is one of the easiest things to get wrong.

Avoid a dark office
Customers should not feel like they walked into a storeroom.
Check
- Reception
- Meeting table
- Workstations
- Product display areas
Do not make everything painfully bright
Very harsh white light can feel uncomfortable.
Use layers
- General lighting
- Task lighting
- Feature lighting where needed
Check the colour of the light
Different light temperatures can change how paint, wood and products look.
Before installing
- Test samples
- Check during day and night
- Avoid mixing too many light colours
My view
Good lighting should help people see clearly, feel comfortable and make the space look intentional.
