What color temperature should I use (warm white, cool white, daylight)?

Great question! Color temperature (measured in Kelvins, or K) totally affects the mood and function of a space. Here's a quick guide:

Warm White (2700K – 3000K)

• Look/Feel: Soft, cozy, yellowish
• Best for:
  • Living rooms
  • Bedrooms
  • Dining areas
• Vibe: Relaxing, calming, intimate

Cool White (3500K – 4100K)

• Look/Feel: Bright, neutral white with slight blue tones
• Best for:
  • Kitchens
  • Bathrooms
  • Workspaces
• Vibe: Clean, focused, energizing

Daylight (5000K – 6500K)

• Look/Feel: Crisp, bluish-white like natural daylight
• Best for:
  • Garages
  • Basements
  • Reading areas or offices
  • Anywhere you need max visibility
• Vibe: Alert, vibrant, clinical (can feel cold)

Quick tip:
If you’re layering lighting (like ceiling + lamps), mix warm and cool for balance.
