Home Theatre Lighting
The lighting helps make the experience during a trip to the cinema: the lights that dim when the action’s about to start, the neon glow of movie poster frames, the theatrical touch of chandeliers. From making sure the mood is right, to providing enough illumination to see, to complementing the design of the room, home theatre lighting is a versatile and very necessary home cinema addition.
Home theatre lighting has several purposes. Obviously there’s the aesthetic appeal and the fun you can have customising it. But the right lighting can also prevent eyestrain and reduce screen glare that can detract from the experience. Floor lighting illuminates walkways, reducing the risk of slips. Dimmable downlights give you full control of the brightness in the room and its atmosphere. There are various types of home theatre lighting you can choose from, along with countless fixtures to suit your sense of style.
It’s worth avoiding direct lighting that can cause glare on the screen and spoil the view. Ambient lighting is a softer choice that provides overall illumination and mood. You can achieve this gentler form of lighting with wall sconces, LED strips or floor lights. Task lighting is used for particular activities like reading or walking around, and accent and decorative lighting are used to complement the room’s features and aesthetics.
Colour temperature, brightness and control features are other factors to consider when it comes to personalising your experience. A colour temperature that’s close to natural daylight is best, and it should be positioned to avoid causing shadows and other distractions. To help make the placement planning of your home theatre lighting clearer, you can split the room into zones: front and back lighting, different seating areas and lighting along pathways and stairs to your home theatre, among other options.
Home Entertainment Solutions specialises in all kinds of home theatre lighting including LED strip lights and star lights for the ceiling. The stylistic choices you make will shape the character of your home theatre, and Home Entertainment Solutions will help you make sure it’s a place you love spending time.
LED Strip Lighting
LED strip lights create a cinematic, futuristic yet serene form of lighting when it’s placed around a room or wall’s perimeter, in a bulkhead’s coving or circling a starlight ceiling. It provides a light source that’s illuminating but not aggressive and makes the room feel larger. If you’re planning on installing home theatre seating with a raised platform, LED lighting is useful for safety, visibility and that extra cinematic touch. It also complements star lights for your ceiling magnificently.
