Lighting refers to one of the most favorite tools in modern interior and exterior design.
It is mainly used in nightclubs, modern boutiques and cafes. Variations in lighting have gradually become more and more common in home and apartment designs. To create a niche with backlighting you need to use the following light sources:
1. Neon lighting.
2. Fluorescent lamps.
3. Duralight with LEDs installed.
4. Backlight with LEDs.
The role of these light sources is as follows.
Neon lighting
Represents glass tubes, which contain inert gas inside, and electrodes are attached to the ends. Once the lamp is turned on, it begins to glow evenly, and the brightness can be adjusted according to personal preference. The material is produced using special technologies by hand in a variety of sizes and shapes. Its popularity is due to the fact that manufacturers produce the material in different colors. Approximately 50 different shades. Service neon lamp can be about 12 years.
Fluorescent lamps
The only disadvantage of these lamps are their unusual size. Using such a light source is very difficult to create an effective niche illumination, because then the light can not spread evenly on the object. The result is a gradual alternation of dark spots with bright lights. These lamps can be used for a maximum of 1 year.
Duralight with LEDs installed
The material has a silicone base in the form of a tube with a diameter of 1, 5 cm. LEDs are soldered into this tube, spaced 3 cm apart. Duralight is not as bright as fluorescent bulbs. The service life of such lamps is very short, and is no more than 3 months. These lamps are mostly used for billboards, as they are very durable under any mechanical influence. In the design of interiors duralight with LEDs is very rarely used, as its lighting features are not able to provide uniform illumination.
Lighting with LEDs
This method of lighting in the modern interior refers to the newest. The material is a bendable RGB strip, the thickness of which is about 0.5 cm. The features of such lighting can be used to illuminate practically all elements of the interior, making the room a truly special.
All installed LEDs in the strip can change colors to red, blue and green. As a result, by switching shades, you can settle on what is most suitable at a particular moment. By adjusting the ratio of colors you can create any shade. Especially for this there is a remote control, thanks to which you can easily select the most preferred color.
LED lighting produces uniform illumination. It does not heat up, so it can last up to 11 years in constant operation.
