Have you ever walked into a room and immediately felt like something wasn’t right concerning the design? Many times when things seem to be just a little bit off it has to do with the lighting.

You may not have realized it but given the lighting design a space and the items it entails can seem either more or less flattering. Being that you spend a great deal of time in your home relaxing with your family and entertaining guests you want your home to look as flattering as possible. When it comes to creating flattering lighting design in your home take heed of the following:

• When its possible look for lighting that will provide a soft, diffused light throughout the room wherever it is placed.
• Consider switching to a bulb with a soft blush color or one with lower wattage to flatter all skin tones.
• Choose an opaque or deep colored shade to filter light and create a soft cast throughout the room.
• Incorporate several points of light in a room so your face is always level with the lighting. Various points also help to even out shadows and provide a soft glow. (Elle Decor)
