Wood desk, how to layer lighting
I want to add lighting to my wood desk, but should I add more lights of the same brightness? Take a look at the work surface, the background behind the monitor, and one corner. Rather than replicating the light in a photo, I will introduce how to control it from my seat.
First, divide into three roles
Divide the screen into a center where you look at the screen, a work surface where you move your hands, and a corner that creates a relaxing atmosphere. In the picture, the device above the monitor, the back light, and the left lamp are in different positions. When decorating similarly, it becomes easier to choose where you need it rather than increasing lights of the same brightness.
There is also a way to keep all lights on and turn them off one by one. When some light is missing, it is difficult to see the note, or it is easy to find the role that is lacking by comparing the background.
Lighting up the wall changes the depth of the background.
The light shining on the wall behind the monitor creates a soft background around the screen. When installing a light source, check whether it can be seen directly from where you are sitting and whether there are any reflections on the screen. Since the hidden light source structure in the photo was not confirmed, it could not be concluded that it was a specific LED strip product.
Check the light directed toward the wall from your sitting eye level. If a light source or bright reflected part catches your eye, you can start by adjusting its direction and location.
