The 3 Different Benefits Of Artificial Lighting

Using artificial lighting in your home comes with many benefits, we have listed just 3 of them below:

1. Artificial lighting will warm up your bedroom.

2. It will add detail to your display cabinet.

3. They are a child-friendly decoration.

Why We Prefer Benches Over Chairs

When deciding on furniture for your dining room, we often just look for dining chairs out of habit, but there is another option - a dining bench. Here’s why we would prefer dining benches over dining chairs.

1. With dining benches, there’s less clutter & it’s easier to tuck away one piece rather than multiple individual chairs.

2. Dining benches can seat three people instead of two.

3. Dining benches don’t obstruct visual flow like a dining chair does. The back of a dining chair tends to block the view to the other side making the overall space seem smaller.

Top Tips When Shopping For A Rug

Shopping for rugs isn’t as easy as you might think. Here are some of our top tips when picking out an appropriate cover for your floor.

1. First, consider the pile depth and where possible bring in a sample of your flooring to compare against the rug and see the colour contrast.

2. Lastly, always measure to make sure the rug is big enough for your space. Where possible, use masking tape to outline the size of the rug in your intended space. This should give you a good sense of how much floor space the rug would consume.
