In this episode, Amelia shares how light to can create spaciousness. Light is the second tool we have in our toolkit to create spaciousness in our homes.

Amelia will take you through both natural and electric night. After all, you want your home to feel spacious during the day, and after dark, don't you!

Many homeowners, when describing how they want their homes to be, use the words 'airy' and 'light' or 'light-filled'.

And we know intuitively that filling our spaces with light will make them feel great. And we also know that natural light does wonders for our moods and sense of comfort in our home.

We can create a feeling of relaxation that we can tap into almost the moment we walk into our homes. That helps us create that emotional connection with our homes, that make us feel 'at home'.

There are specific ways you can use light to create spaciousness, both during the day, and at night. 

Amelia will identify the main mistakes homeowners make when using light in their homes, and the spaciousness and comfort killers they can be.

She’ll also outline 3 design strategies you can use to create spaciousness in your home, using both natural and electrical light.
