Strategically placed and designed lighting is imperative for long hours of studying and learning. So, the question becomes, how can we illuminate and elevate the spaces from which we work and learn? 

1. Control daylight glare by using shades. Daylight is great, but contrary to popular belief, too much can make it too bright and actually harder to work. 
2. Use indirect lighting. Light that bounces off of your ceiling and/or walls will provide softer, balanced light compared to direct downlight that can strain the eyes.
3. Install dimmers. Like shades for daylight, dimmers control the quantity of electric light at any time of day. Plus, they give you complete control to balance your indoor lighting with outdoor lighting, whether you have a bright and sunny day or a cloudy and dark one.
