Of course, proper lighting is necessary to be able to effectively use laundry rooms, home offices and other workrooms. But lighting schemes can provide more than function. The right lighting can create a cozy, comfortable environment that will enhance moods and make work and chores more enjoyable.  From the American Lighting Association and Better Homes & Garden’s Lighting magazine, here are the different layers of light that you can incorporate to achieve a functional and pleasant lighting scheme in your laundry room, home office or workroom.

• Task lighting provides practical illumination for laundry, reading and other work that requires plenty of lighting and usually comes in the form of a portable lamp or pendant fixtures.
• Overhead lighting from a ceiling fan fixture, pendants or recessed fixtures is crucial for functionality at night.
• Ambient lighting in the form of undercabinet lighting or adjustable track lighting on book shelves or artwork can supplement task and overhead lighting for a more agreeable atmosphere.
