**Consider the Purpose**: Think about what you’ll be doing in the room. For example, a bright light is great for a kitchen where you cook, but a softer light is better for a cozy living room.

**Layer Your Lighting**: Use a mix of ambient (general), task (for specific activities), and accent (to highlight features) lighting. This way, you can adjust the mood depending on what you need.

**Think About Color Temperature**: Warmer lights (like 2700K) create a cozy vibe, perfect for bedrooms or living areas. Cooler lights (like 5000K) are better for workspaces or kitchens to keep you alert.

**Size and Scale Matter**: Make sure your light fixtures fit the room. A big chandelier in a small dining room might be overwhelming, while tiny lights might get lost in a large space.

**Natural Light is Key**: If you have windows, consider how much natural light the room gets. You might want to choose lighter fixtures or sheer shades to maximize that brightness.
