This time we'll write about both types of lighting that included in the category of ambient lighting, they are ceiling fan with light and wall sconce.

Before we continue, to help you understand what kind of lighting, we need to re-explain briefly what it is ambient lighting. We quoted from our previous post "Ambient lighting is general lighting, this type of lighting serves to light up the room in general, general that we mean is a base of lighting, other types of lighting are built from here". To understand the basic types of lighting, you can read this article "Interior lighting – how to understand the three main types of lighting". Okay, now let's find out about the two other types of ambient lighting, ceiling fan with light and wall sconce.

Ceiling fan with light

We mean is not ceiling fan it self, but ceiling fan fitted with light. Ceiling fan is usually installed in the living room ceiling, exactly above the sofa set. It is also mounted on the bedroom ceiling, exactly above the bed. Because the ceiling fan has two functions, as well as fan and lighting source, then the ceiling fan has advantages over other lighting. With a simple lighting fixture, ceiling fan looks beautiful, because of the fan shape has an attractive shape, when the lights on the ceiling fan is also made with an attractive design as well, then the ceiling fan with light is a stunning decorative element.

You may not believe this statement, therefore, take a look at a picture in the first part of this article, a ceiling fan features with lights in the middle, with a light brown color.

Ceiling fan is truly captivating, you need to realize that this is just one of hundreds or maybe thousands of other designs that compete with one another. Consider to complete the living room or your bedroom with a ceiling fan with light.

Wall sconce

Sconce different from most other ambient lighting, the light source usually comes from the ceiling, but not with Sconce. Sconce mounted on the wall, so this type of lighting is often called the "Wall Sconce". Because sconce mounted on the wall, so it has relatively small size and light emitted was also relatively much fainter, it is important because the wall would be closer to the people who are in a room, a dim light certainly will not interfere with each eye of the beholder to the wall either intentionally or unintentionally. Wall Sconce can be combined with other lighting mounted on the ceiling, so ceiling lighting as the main light source, while Wall Sconce as a complement to, or more focused for accent lighting.
