Example of can lights (not for living room)... this is all you need! don't do swiss cheese ceiling
Can't see actual light fixture, but they clearly have some type of lighting wash aimed above fireplace mantle that's lighting up the painting
example of string/floating (?) track lighting / spotlighting / monolighting to create wash of ambient light on wood wall.
Combination of recessed lighting + porch light + possible low-level lighting near floor?
Uplighting / monolighting / spotlighting along wall, aimed at ceiling (to create wash of ambient light)
NON EXAMPLE. Can lights in kitchen pine ceiling are distracting
hard to see, but monolighting / spot lighting above fireplace, angled at fireplace wall for wash of ambient light. Also possibly uplighting or monolighting from floors aimed at back door wall? TABLE LAMPS
kitchen - pendants + under cabinet + can lights (maybe too many?)
Monolighting / spotlighting to create wash of ambient light on ceiling
NON EXAMPLE. 3 can lights above fireplace create weird patchy lighting / weird 3 holes in ceiling that distract the eye. Would be better with spotlighitng / monolighting
Monolights / spotlighting (see track) for task lighting in kitchen, combined with pendants on island. And some minimal under cabinet lighting
Not can lights. Uplighting / mono lighting appears to be on top of beam (above sliding door) to create wash of ambient light on pine ceiling
Gambril (?) angled toward wall pine (right side) to give wash of ambient light
Over sink pendants. Maybe too low / blocking view?
