When adding lighting we should consider some techniques:
 * Emphasize spaces, depending on the dark and open areas of the room.


 * The shape and intensity of light is important.


 * Mixtures of light with glass and walls are different, depending of colors and textures.


 * The lighting is consistent with the function and style of the room


 * Think at the perspectives from different points (not consider one only)



Fundamentals of Lightings In lighting, there are three basic types:  <span style="color: #fffd00; display: block; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif; font-size: 110%; text-align: left;">General Lighting <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif; font-size: 110%; text-align: left;"> General Lighting provides an area with overall illumination. Also known as ambient lighting, general lighting radiates a comfortable level of brightness, enabling one to see and walk about safely. It can be accomplished with chandeliers, ceiling or wall-mounted fixtures, recessed or track lights, and with lanterns outside your home. A basic form of lighting that replaces sunlight, general lighting is fundamental to a lighting plan

It can be provided by recessed and track lighting, pendant lighting, and portable lamps. Task lighting should be free of distracting glare and shadows and should be bright enough to prevent eyestrain.

As part of a <span style="font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">decorating scheme, it is used to spotlight paintings, houseplants, sculpture, and other prized possessions, or to highlight the texture of a wall, drapery or outdoor landscaping. Accent lighting requires at least three times as much light on the focal point as the general lighting around it. This usually is provided by track, recessed, or wall-mounted fixtures
