Lighting Ideas for the Living Room

Track Lighting and Accent Lighting

An artful combination of track lighting and accent lighting puts the spotlight on this living room's artwork and vintage furnishings. These fixtures use halogen bulbs for a bright white light that renders colors more accurately than ordinary incandescent, and lends an extra sparkle to fine wood veneers and gilt picture frames. A vintage floor lamp rounds out the room's illumination while also acting as a reading lamp beside the easy chair on the right.
