Artwork, as any interior decorator would say, is the perfect way to add depth and a touch of class&nbsp;and character to any space. But if decorating the home was as simple as hanging a canvas on a wall or setting a sculpture in the corner, many of us would qualify to become expert decorators. 
With all the excitement of recent art exhibition in the past months, and more still to come, what better way to make the most of your artsy investment than to optimise your lighting at home to highlight your art pieces. Here are&nbsp;our top tips and tricks to light up fine art at home and make your gallery shine:
&nbsp;
1. Keep paintings away from direct sunlight

Every home is made more homely with ample natural light to spill into the room, but when it comes to placing paintings directly under the glare of the sun, it would be wise to reconsider another place to light up fine art than next to the windows. UV rays and infrared light&nbsp;break down organic compounds causing binders in substances like those in paint to break down and degrade. So make sure your oil paintings are positioned away from direct sunlight or any source of infrared light.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
2. Layer your lighting and place them at a 30-degree angle&nbsp;

Good design is all about layers, and lighting is no exception. Layering your light source helps create contrast, accentuate elements and highlight colours and textures. Building off of ambient lighting as a base layer to illuminate the room,&nbsp;you can then decide on placing recessed lights (down lights) above or accent lights next to or near art pieces to highlight specific areas, of the artwork — creating drama and shadows that position the art piece as the focal point of the room.
With recessed lights and spotlights, you can adjust and angle them at 30-degrees to create a more flattering effect on the art pieces. Especially ones encased in glass, avoiding direct light will reduce the glare reflected on the glass.
&nbsp;
3. Consider the colour temperature of the light

You&#8217;ve heard of halogen and incandescent lights, but which exactly are best to light up fine art pieces? Incadescent lights are traditionally warmer in temperature which can affect how paintings are reflected, while halogen lights are best at replicating natural light. They emit a stronger heat but cooler temperature, similar to natural light, that cast a more flattering light on vibrant art pieces.
But keep in mind, both halogen and incandescent lights are also hotter which, over time, can affect the texture and quality of the artwork. In this case, using UV filters can help reduce the radiation and harsh light that comes from halogen and incandescent bulbs.

4. Install LED lights&nbsp;
<a href="//www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/gafencu-Six-lighting-tricks-to-highlight-your-artwork-at-home-interior-design-decorating-tips-8.jpg"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-61661" src="//www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/gafencu-Six-lighting-tricks-to-highlight-your-artwork-at-home-interior-design-decorating-tips-8.jpg" alt="gafencu Six lighting tricks to highlight your artwork at home interior design decorating tips-8" width="446" height="700" srcset="https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/gafencu-Six-lighting-tricks-to-highlight-your-artwork-at-home-interior-design-decorating-tips-8.jpg 446w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/gafencu-Six-lighting-tricks-to-highlight-your-artwork-at-home-interior-design-decorating-tips-8-200x314.jpg 200w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/gafencu-Six-lighting-tricks-to-highlight-your-artwork-at-home-interior-design-decorating-tips-8-178x280.jpg 178w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/gafencu-Six-lighting-tricks-to-highlight-your-artwork-at-home-interior-design-decorating-tips-8-120x188.jpg 120w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/gafencu-Six-lighting-tricks-to-highlight-your-artwork-at-home-interior-design-decorating-tips-8-400x628.jpg 400w" sizes="(max-width: 446px) 100vw, 446px" /></a> 
When it comes to artificial lighting, LED lights are quite efficient in illuminate the room effectively. They are up to 90-percent energy saving and have longer lifespan and softer light. Unlike halogen and incandescent light bulbs, they don&#8217;t emit infrared or ultraviolet rays that affect the qualities of delicate artwork and they cast a cooler temperature that light up fine art pieces nicely.&nbsp;But not&nbsp;just any LED light will do &#8211; to complement your art pieces with a flattering glow, a high-quality LED light source with a CRI (Color Rendering Index) level of 90 to 100 is needed to reveal the true colours of&nbsp;&nbsp;of the artworks themselves.
&nbsp;
5. Picture lights&nbsp;help spotlight individual pieces
<a href="//www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/gafencu-Six-lighting-tricks-to-highlight-your-artwork-at-home-interior-design-decorating-tips-3.jpg"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-61667" src="//www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/gafencu-Six-lighting-tricks-to-highlight-your-artwork-at-home-interior-design-decorating-tips-3.jpg" alt="gafencu Six lighting tricks to highlight your artwork at home interior design decorating tips-3" width="446" height="700" srcset="https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/gafencu-Six-lighting-tricks-to-highlight-your-artwork-at-home-interior-design-decorating-tips-3.jpg 446w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/gafencu-Six-lighting-tricks-to-highlight-your-artwork-at-home-interior-design-decorating-tips-3-200x314.jpg 200w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/gafencu-Six-lighting-tricks-to-highlight-your-artwork-at-home-interior-design-decorating-tips-3-178x280.jpg 178w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/gafencu-Six-lighting-tricks-to-highlight-your-artwork-at-home-interior-design-decorating-tips-3-120x188.jpg 120w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/gafencu-Six-lighting-tricks-to-highlight-your-artwork-at-home-interior-design-decorating-tips-3-400x628.jpg 400w" sizes="(max-width: 446px) 100vw, 446px" /></a>
You might have seen picture lights in museums &#8211; they are those narrow, shaded beams with an arched stem that can either be mounted on the wall or attached to picture frames. They are great for spotlighting individual pieces, adding drama and creating a focal point.&nbsp;It is also convenient to mount in areas where larger light fixtures are unwanted or where electrical outlets are inconvenient, such as above the headboard in the bedroom. But one thing to remember is larger paintings will need larger beams and darker rooms will need brighterlights.
&nbsp;
6. Using multiple lights for large canvases, collection or sculptures

Mounting large canvases help fill out the empty spaces on large walls. Alternatively, placing multiple artworks together can create a flow. In this case, using one light source may not be enough to highlight the entire piece or collection. Spotlights or recessed lights offer multiple light sources that can illuminate larger areas where artworks are placed together.&nbsp;
For sculptures, because of their&nbsp;three-dimensional structure, the best way to accentuate the intricate details, form and features is to place lightings behind and two angled lights above on each side. Avoid lighting sculptures from below, directly behind or directly in front which does no favours to your art display as those angles either cast too harsh of a spotlight or wash out and hides the details of your art pieces.

Top tips to light up your fine art collection

Lighting is a defining element of any home. It lends a flattering illumination to enhance the ambiance and the practicality of a space, while elevating the overall aesthetic. The most stunningly lit rooms are the result of careful planning rather than happenstance, so bear the following points in mind before selecting any new fixtures for your home.
<a href="//www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Gafencu-lighting-design-fixtures-to-transform-any-room-in-the-home-7.jpg"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-59588" src="//www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Gafencu-lighting-design-fixtures-to-transform-any-room-in-the-home-7.jpg" alt="Gafencu lighting design fixtures to transform any room in the home (7)" width="700" height="466" srcset="https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Gafencu-lighting-design-fixtures-to-transform-any-room-in-the-home-7.jpg 700w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Gafencu-lighting-design-fixtures-to-transform-any-room-in-the-home-7-200x133.jpg 200w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Gafencu-lighting-design-fixtures-to-transform-any-room-in-the-home-7-421x280.jpg 421w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Gafencu-lighting-design-fixtures-to-transform-any-room-in-the-home-7-120x80.jpg 120w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Gafencu-lighting-design-fixtures-to-transform-any-room-in-the-home-7-500x333.jpg 500w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Gafencu-lighting-design-fixtures-to-transform-any-room-in-the-home-7-400x266.jpg 400w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Gafencu-lighting-design-fixtures-to-transform-any-room-in-the-home-7-600x399.jpg 600w" sizes="(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px" /></a> 
Without a shadow of a doubt, the style, material and finish of your lights are all crucial. Homeowners should always pick a fixture that speaks to them, echoing their style and taste. However, the size of a light installation can just as easily make or break the desired aesthetic, so this is the first factor to consider when planning the lighting of each room.

Entrance and Living Room 
Start from the entryway, which in most Hong Kong homes leads into the living room, the area reserved for entertainment and relaxation. The lighting here sets the tone for the rest of the home. As the largest room in the house, the living area is also the most difficult in which to compose a perfect ratio of light fixture size, height and proportion. A gorgeous statement piece like a chandelier, for example, works best on a high ceiling – instantly filling the space while adding a beautiful contrast to the height. Chandeliers between 22 and 26 inches in diameter are a good size for ceilings of 10 to 11 feet, while ceilings that reach 12 feet or more can be filled by grandiose fixtures that are at least 30 inches in diameter – anything smaller may cheapen the aesthetic of the space.

However, if height is an issue, recessed lights, which are pushed neatly into the ceiling, or open soffit lights nestled into dropped ceilings or at the top of walls, pillars and beams, offer clear, soft and unobtrusive ambient light, even offering the illusion of a higher ceiling.
For something more dramatic, instead of lining the edges of the ceiling with recessed lights, create a circular tray above the main area to hide away LED lights for a unique halo effect. For art aficionados, adding layers of multiple light sources will create the illusion of depth in a room, delivering beautifully lit spaces that showcase the various elements, such as a chandelier complemented by a task light and a decorative accent light as an ambiance booster.

Dining Room 
Just because the dining room serves a more practical purpose than the living room, illumination here should not be limited to a series of task lights. It is important that this space is bright enough for guests to be comfortable while chatting and eating at the dining table. Though small-scale chandeliers can feature here, it is pendant lights that instantly dress the room. They also provide an anchor for the table, which immediately draws attention. Pendant lights are typically low hanging; suspending them 30 to 36 inches above the table will add character to the space while not obstructing movement.

If your taste leans more towards statement pieces, bold, reflective and crystalised fixtures will effortlessly convey this, while traditional styles feature fabric shades and crystals. In contrast, a modern look is best achieved with clean, simple lines and an emphasis on glass materials. For a mid-century modern vibe, select lighting that features bubble glass; a bubble-glass chandelier or pendant light leaves a lasting impression and creates an outstanding room.

Kitchen 
Pendant light fixtures also fit happily in a kitchen. This is the one place in your home where you want ample lighting, especially while working over the kitchen island. Ideally, aligning these lights along the length of the island will bring an illuminated balance to the space. For counters that are six feet or longer, two to three pendant lights will fit right, while a series of sconce or ceiling-mounted lights work well to illuminate other areas, such as the sink.

Hall and Bathroom 
The narrow passageways of foyers and halls don’t usually offer much space for lighting. Mounting sconce lights along the walls is the most obvious solution here. However, if more subtle and seamless transition from one room to the next is desired, hidden light sources in the form of hidden lights lining the wall edges will be ideal. This is also true in the bathroom, an area of the house where light is absolutely necessary for daily grooming regimens. Sconces flanking the mirrors, or bright LED lights above them, are the key focal points.

Bedroom 
Turning to the more intimate areas of the home, the master bedroom is probably the most revealing space and most telling of its occupants, which is all the more reason to spruce it up with statement lighting. The installations here draw the gaze to the elements that are most important to you. But there are no hard-set rules that must be followed. Placing warm task lights at the bedside is the most popular way to facilitate reading or watching TV shows. Some people, though, prefer to highlight the bed with a big crystal chandelier, or set mood lighting to create a cosier bedchamber.
Having reviewed different lighting solutions and fixture styles and, all importantly, determining the size and brightness required to complement each available space, homeowners can head into their renovation with confidence.
