For a long time, when we are doing interior lighting design, people will first consider chandeliers, ceiling lamps, floor lamps, etc., and lamps such as downlights are mostly used for commercial lighting, most of them are used in small spaces.
In fact, if it can be designed reasonably, the spotlight can completely replace chandeliers, ceiling lights, etc. and become the main light.
On the one hand, there are many problems with chandeliers and ceiling lights, such as high requirements for chandeliers to high requirements; lights with slightly complicated styles are usually not easy to clean and maintain;the energy consumption of decorative lights is relatively high.The built -in light sources can reach 20 or 30 built -in light sources, and the shape is relatively complicated. Except for good beauty, there are no other advantages.

Compared to these “problems” of decorative lights,The cost of shooting lights is low, easy to clean, energy saving and environmental protection, long life, and convenient maintenance. The picture below is a case that uses a good use of spotlight lighting
Indeed, in the minds of many people, there are many “disadvantages” of the spotlights. Such as dazzling, high temperature, only lighting, no decorative effect, etc. We do not deny these problems, because there are some indoor decoration that uses spotlight lighting. Due to the lack of rationality and poor quality of the product itself, the problem does exist. But if you can reasonably design the lighting of the space, choose a good brand and manufacturer’s products, and the above problems will not occur at all.
We all know that the light of the spotlight has a strong orientation, when light is down, it can “stretch” the visual space.In addition, the beam angle of the spotlight also has many options, including 15 °, 30 °, 45 °, 60 °, 120 °, 180 °, etc., the smaller the beam angle, the more concentrated the light is. On the contrary, if the more spread. We can choose the beam angle we need according to the specific space and specific purpose.

For example, if you want to light up the art or decorations in your home alone, you can choose a slightly smaller light beam angle to highlight the effect. If you just want to be a general lighting, you can choose a large light beam angle. The astigmatism is better.
The light is also relatively soft, and there will be no high glare and dazzling situation.

So how do we choose a spotlight?
The more popular spotlights now belong to LED shooting lights, with high light effect (high electricity conversion rate), and more energy saving. Of course, halogen raw lights also have its irreplaceable advantages, that is, high -gravity (color rendering: can be simply understood as the ability to restore things), and the light is softer and sentimental.
The inferior spotlight, because the filtering of Blu -ray is not sufficient, or overwhelming, will have a very adverse effect on vision and psychology. Therefore, when buying a spotlight at the scene, it is recommended that you use the lights to experience whether there are overwhelming and excessive heat.
In addition, we need to know that the spotlight produced by regular manufacturers or brands will clearly indicate the color temperature, light flux, color rendering index, and beam corner light parameters in the instructions. These are all we must watch when we choose the lights. If not, it is recommended not to buy.
How to install a spotlight？
Usually, we divide the installation method of the spotlight into bright loads (directly on the smallpox, no chandeliers) and dark installation (installed in the chandelier, and the spotlight is embedded in the chandelier).
According to many years of interior lighting design experience, we believe that the lighting method of the spotlight is more suitable for the entrance hall, corridor, and table. In the living room, many families choose ceilings, so it is more suitable for dark installation.
In the past experience, people think that the ceiling should waste a dozen centimeters of height, and even many people are unwilling to make ceilings. And if the hanging top is equipped with a dark installed shooting light, only a ceiling of about 6cm is required to achieve the layout of the spotlight.
Of course, it is worth noting that the dark installed lights in the living room should be evenly arranged to ensure that the space of the rooms is uniform, which is also a point that the spotlight is better than the lanterns.
