Home Lighting Trends for 2022

Lighting design can be a make or break for a home. It enhances the aesthetics of each space and increases overall functionality. Lighting and electrical designs are constantly changing and improving. With the boom in homebuilding over the last few years, we have noticed a few lighting trends becoming popular in 2022.

Task Lighting  

Tasking lighting is bright lighting, free of distracting glare or shadows. This lighting design makes it easier to perform various tasks around the home.

Back Lighting  

Back lighting creates a glowing effect around the edges of the subject, while also providing task lighting. This technique is most often used with bathroom mirrors.

Wall Washing

Wall washing creates a smooth “wash” effect. This makes the room as a whole look more spacious and evenly illuminates the entire wall.
