reading-lampThere are many design options for desk lamp and standing lamp. The size is also varied. As a reading lamp, select the appropriate lamp carefully.

One of the accessories that has many variants of the model and the design is lamp. No wonder, everytime we entered the store, we would be confused to choose which one we’d like to buy.

Pretty design often become the first reason for someone to buy lamp for their homes. If theshape has fit, the matter of functions can become second consideration.

Do not make mistake, it function and model should be considered proportionally. It should have deautiful design but functioning optimally.

Let’s take the example of a standing lamp and table lamp. Both are often displayed as a decoration only. Though the two lamps are supposed to serve as additional lighting when Doing Activities, for example is reading.

In the Interior Design Course explained that there is a certain size and distance that must be possessed of a lamp in order to function maximally. For example, a standing lamp, ideally has a height, from the bottom of lamp shade and floor, about 3 – 4 ft. The placement also need attention.

If you want to use the standing lamp as well as a reading lamp, place it on the back of the shoulder. This placement was impossible, if the chair or sofa, placed against the wall. In this condition, you can search for a standing lamp with an arm that can be moved, so can be easily adjusted to sitting position.

Now about the table lamp. In the same book it was mentioned, the bottom edge of the lamp shade must be parallel with eye level. That is, should have the distance, between the bottom edge and the floor lamp shade, arounf 3 – 3.5 ft. Thus, you will get maximum light, while reading or writing, on the table.

So beautiful design is not everything. Beautiful design with maximum functionality, that is the right choice.
