How to Create a Cozy Corner with Décor Lighting during Monsoon and Festive Season

Lighting isn’t merely a functional aspect of our living spaces; it’s an art that has the power to transform the ambiance of any room. In today’s rapidly evolving world, where homes often double as offices and sanctuaries, the need for thoughtful and versatile lighting has surged exponentially. Our personal spaces have become the epicentre of solace and inspiration, making the role of decor lighting of paramount importance.

We spoke to Shaleen Nayak: Business Head, Lighting Crompton Greaves Consumer Electricals Ltd., she says, “With the ongoing monsoon season bringing a grey hue over the outside world, our homes become an even more cherished sanctuary. The dim, cloudy days can often cast a shadow on our mood, and this is precisely where decor lighting comes into play. Subtle changes in lighting can make a world of difference – from soft, warm hues to gentle, diffused lighting that captures you like a cozy embrace. The right decor lighting can transcend the gloominess outside, cocooning you in a comforting glow. Mood lighting has an incredible ability to set the stage for different emotions – from quiet contemplation to vibrant energy. It’s this versatility that makes decor lighting a magical tool to alleviate not just the monsoon blues but your mood, across seasons.”

There is no better time than the monsoon to create a cozy corner in your home. A corner where you can relax, read a book, sip a cup of tea or just enjoy moments of tranquillity, is just what you need. In order to prepare that perfect spot, one needs to identify that favourite corner - It could be by a large window that offers a view of the rain outside or a cosy corner in your bedroom or by the balcony in your living room.

Shaleen Nayak says, from tweaking the colours of our interiors to adding the correct sort of lighting, let’s look at the different décor lighting options to eliminate those monsoon blues:

Elevate your corner with LED lights

LED lights, such as strip, rope and string lights can add a charm to any room. These versatile and energy-efficient lighting solutions have become a cornerstone of modern interior design. Adorning mirrors, bookshelves, and walls, they amp up the mood of the room. You can use Rope lights to create the effect of cove lighting on your ceiling for your living room. You can also use high-quality String Lights that are flexible enough to bend into any shape that allows you to illuminate your spaces. Starting at 60 LEDs per meter, they radiate brilliant and evenly distributed light. Strip Lights which are available in 5-meter strips, their zero-mercury construction and surge protection ensure safety while delivering an array of colors. Illuminate your corner with a touch of magic, as LED lights redefine style, efficiency, and ambiance in a single, captivating package.
