Seasons are never identical, and with seasonal changes, the availability of natural lighting also changes. Hence, there is no reason why your interior lighting ambiance shouldn’t be in sync with the changing seasons. In summers, when it is hot outside, you need cool and relaxed interiors where the inflow of natural light is controlled and reduced. 

On the other hand, in winters, we need to get in as much daylight and fuzzy warmth as possible. Changing your interiors with every change of seasons might not be such a great idea logically. The other, easier and highly effective thing to do is to change the flow of natural light into your home. 

The process of altering your internal ambiance by allowing natural sunlight is called daylighting. By daylight, we can reduce the consumption of artificial lighting and make the interior ambiance cozy and more comfortable. 



However, the impact of daylighting is not only limited to saving on electricity bills, but, it is a highly sustainable way of illumination. By reducing the power consumption, we can actually reduce the global carbon footprint and benefit our environment. Studies have also revealed that natural lighting improves our cognitive and learning abilities and students who study in bright naturally lit classrooms are more cheerful and active compared to those who learn under artificial lighting. 

By changing your window shades and drapes is a stylish, quick and economical way to achieve the daylighting objectives for your home. 

You can maintain the interior lighting levels by playing with the colours, opacity or design of the shades fabrics and what makes it even better is that investing in these shades changes can actually bring down your electricity consumption.
