Home Office Lighting Ideas

Best Lighting for Home Offices
Whether your home office is in the den, a spare bedroom, or occupies a corner of the kitchen, you need good lighting for your home workspace. The very best light is natural light, but windows and sunny days are not always available. In these cases, spend some time researching your home office lighting options. Then you can choose the fixtures and light bulbs that will best fit your needs.

Recessed Lighting
Every area of a home needs general lighting, and the home office is no exception. Recessed lights offer reliable lighting for a workspace, while staying unobtrusive and aesthetically neutral. Install dimmable soft white light bulbs and dimmer switches to maintain full control of the area’s brightness.
Ceiling Fan with Light
Ceiling fans belong in most rooms of the house: the living room, every bedroom, perhaps even the kitchen. If you spend all day in your home office, that space should also be well ventilated and as comfortable as possible. A ceiling fan can enhance a home office by making the area feel cooler than it really is. A ceiling fan with lights plays dual roles, providing a gentle cooling effect as well as general lighting throughout the space.
Pendant Lights
To provide a targeted boost of light over a specific workspace, consider installing a pendant light. Pendant lights should hang approximately three feet above the desk surface. Carefully choosing a pendant is also an opportunity to add some style and personality to a home office.
Task Lamps
Ensure that your workspace is always bright enough with a good task lamp. As you shift between work tasks throughout the day, you will be glad to have a lamp that’s dimmable and adjustable.
