Lumens required and Color temperature

Select by lumens (lm):

In the past, it may be common to hear that one should select the light fixture based on its wattage. Which is not wrong by any means, as light fixtures which have a higher wattage rating generally produce brighter light, but since the introduction of LED lighting, the more appropriate measurement should be the amount of lumens each light fixture produce.

A gentle reminder the next time you are searching for new light fixtures that Wattage ≠ Lumens. 

Instead of focusing on the rated wattage on the light fixture, users should instead ask what is the luminous flux or lumens that the particular light fixture emits.

The amount of lumens required greatly differ from space to space, as the light output should correlate to the type of work that is being done in that particular space. 

Select by color temperature:

Just like any other light fixtures that are available in the market, LED ceiling lights are also available in various color temperatures that will best match the intended ambience for each space.

For users who are in search of a cozy and warm environment, a color temperature of 3000K would be the most ideal in creating a cozy environment.

Whereas the cooler color temperature of 4200K and 6500K would be more suited to carry out focus intensive tasks such as reading, writing and cooking.   

In harmony with other light fixtures

When it comes to creating a harmonious interior space, it is important that the light fixtures should not cause a negative spatial perception of the space.

Ceiling lights are usually the main light fixture of the space, hence the color temperature of ceiling lights needs to be in harmony with the other light fixtures that are installed within the space. A coherent color temperature throughout the space is the essence to a harmonious space.
