You can get sunshine into your home with these simple tips
If you have the luxury of building or remodelling the rooms of your home, simply orient them within the sun’s path for a brighter home.
Here are some tips
Bemobile. Push furnishings, like the kitchen table and the sofa, near the windows so that you get the most from the aesthetic and biological benefits of light. You can also see better in natural rather than artificial light.
Make your sun-seeking task easy by attaching castors to large furniture. Have a couple of easy chairs on castors that can be rolled to the windows by day when you want to read or simply soak in the sun.
Draw natural light into a room’s dark corners by hanging a few wellplaced mirrors. Hang small mirrors on the wall adjacent to the north-facing window so it reflects the west-setting sun. You could also hang a larger, rectangular mirror on the wall opposite the south window so that it reflects the view of the garden and brightens the corner. The room can be cozily dramatic without being dingy and cave-like. Go for French doors. Use them extensively between rooms to save up on space. Homes built before World War II often used interior glass doors between public rooms to spread light while providing a sense of separation.
Fake lighting. You could install narrow, warm, white fluorescent tubes in the deep window wells between the interior shutters and the window glass. They give the effect of sunlight streaming through the blades, even on the city’s dreariest days.
Open up to the sun by installing a skylight in a bathroom or over the kitchen island. Clothes will dry faster, makeup and shaving will be more accurate, cooking will be more pleasant and electric bills will be lower with a little imagination and resourcefulness.
