Opting for a portable light is one of the simplest solutions for an underlit space. You might incorporate lamps wherever you need them, but there are other solutions you may find more appealing. Consider one of these items that provide the supplemental light you want without irreversibly altering your space:

  • Battery-operated puck lighting: Get concentrated light wherever you wish to have it with these unobtrusive, stick-on products. Put them underneath cabinets to bring light to a kitchen counter or illuminate cherished belongings inside a display case. Pick from manual or remote operation.
  • LED strip lights: Looking to establish the right ambiance for a particular area? You may use remote-operated strip lights behind furniture or in the upper corners of bedroom walls.
  • Clip-on reading and desk lamps: Flexible, small, and effective, clip-on reading and desk lamps are ideal for your workstation or by your bedside. Look into handy rechargeable ones.
  • Plug-in or battery-powered wall sconces: Prefer something more stylish to claim a primary location| on your wall? You can find easy-to-remove wall sconces in various styles that affix effortlessly with robust two-sided adhesive tape.

Reflect Natural Light With Mirrors

If you wish to maximize the natural light entering through the windows of your well-designed apartment in Zionsville, you can use mirrors or alternative reflective decor. Use a large, leaning mirror in your bedroom or situate smaller mirrors across from windows. Adhesive mirror tiles are great for darker hallways. Found in many sizes and styles, mirrors are perfect for maximizing light and blending with your individual design preferences. 

Pick Brightness-Enhancing Decor

What you pick for decor will also have an effect on how bright and cheerful an area feels. Metal pieces and wall art reflect daylight in a similar fashion as mirrors. Even a mirrored serving tray on a tabletop can direct light up. Lucite or glass furniture permits light to pass through and imparts a fashionable touch. You can also brighten a room with lighter-colored textiles and rugs. 

If you own thicker curtains, switch them out with lighter, sheer materials. Tension bars are excellent for an easy, damage-free installation. You may also discover light-filtering cellular shades that affix without drilling into the walls.
