At first, college rooms
can seem a bit blank. It is up to you to add a personal touch and make it feel
like home. Lighting can play a big role in creating the environment you want
for your room. It is also nice to be able to control how much light is in your
room. When studying or reading, it may be nice to have a softer light available
instead of the overhead light. There are many different approaches you can take
to add light, and can also add décor to your walls instead.
Lamps, are a traditional way to add light. Many desk and floor lamps have different intensity
settings so you can choose the most comfortable one for your lifestyle. They also
come in a variety of colors and patterns which can enhance your room motif.
Other
great ways to add light is to utilize hangable lights such as Christmas, rope,
and string lights. Utilizing these options provides luminosity without taking
up space on your desk or floor. These also allow you to show off your
personality by choosing different lighting color and designs. For example,
below, instead of using white lights to write ‘Dream’ on your wall, you could
chose to use blue or green or red or whatever color rope lighting you can find.
Instead of using pizza string lights, find some shaped like stars or hearts, or
even R2D2. Fixing these lights around your wall is a great way to provide some
soft light and also spruce your room.
It
is also important to remember to use natural light as well. Each room will have a window, so be sure to open the window covering every once in a while to let the
sun in. By adding some of your own light enhancements, you room can be one step
closer to being your home away from home.
