Outdoor Lighting, More Like Solar Powered Lighting!
What could be better than illuminating your backyard with solar energy? In addition to the design and layout of the fixtures, the way they operate is important. While it is recommended to avoid overly technical electrical installations by replacing them with wireless connected lights, you can also opt for solar LED lights that are recharged by natural light such as SUNLITE. The SUNLITE charger is composed of a waterproof solar panel and a charging platform. It will enable you to recharge the battery of your lamp in an environmentally friendly way.

Spring is upon us… Now is the perfect time to start decorating your garden, balcony or terrace, taking inspiration from the 2021 decorating trends to design your very own private getaway.
An Outdoor Space To Get Away From It All
With the many restrictions we are currently facing due to the health crisis, our backyards, terraces, and balconies have turned into real outlets. The goal is to design your outdoor space to make you feel the most comfortable, whether in cozy or tropical mode, to each their own. In any case, your outdoor space deserves a lot of attention as it allows you to spend time outside.
This year, the trend is to create distinct spaces within the garden. From outdoor dining areas to the usual garden lounge, let your creativity run free. Some decorative objects and small furniture usually placed indoors can easily be moved outside. Many brands in this segment offer outdoor shelves and coat racks, as well as Oriental style rugs, as part of their new product lines. Such items are what will allow you to give your exterior a certain spirit and atmosphere. You can choose to stick with a wild and tropical feel, or design your little patch of heaven with a similar tone to your living room.

The Coffee Table, A Must-Have In Outdoor Furniture
When it comes to outdoor furniture, the coffee table is the centerpiece of any outdoor lounge. It allows you put down your beverages as you relax and unwind. This year, round coffee tables are the way to go. The shape is very trendy right now, along with light natural shades. This trend, well loved for its modern feel, still leaves room for a wide choice of materials, colors, and sizes. Feel free to mix colors and materials, that’s still very much in trend.
For instance, how about taking the original route with a LED Coffee Table? Regarding sizes, it is best to keep in mind the size of your outdoor space: a coffee table on a balcony should not feel too bulky. This is less of a concern in a big backyard.
The new 2021 color trends for your exterior are very versatile, with something for everyone! For starters, natural colors such as curry yellow, sage green, or terracotta are very on trend and will blend nicely with an outdoor space featuring lots of greenery. Both small accessories and large furniture can be found in these color tones. You can also combine colors and materials in this way. For example, you might pick out terracotta colored iron chairs along with terracotta ornaments for the table. This will allow your outdoor furniture to echo its natural surroundings.
Equally trendy are timeless pastel colors. These are great for sprucing up your garden or patio. For example, you will find hues such as ice mint, opaline green, and frosted grey. In fact, keep in mind that this year, “grey is the new black”. Have fun mixing these different shades to create a harmonious and colorful atmosphere for your exterior. For something simpler: ecru, grey, and beige are three rather “nude” colors that we suggest you go for this year. They go well with everything and can be paired with a variety of colors in any outdoor setting. With beige colors, you can design an outdoor space in a Scandinavian or bohemian style.

Choosing The Right Lighting For A Modern Outdoor Space
We can’t stress this enough: lighting is an essential part of the design! Nowadays, many realize its importance and turn to innovative lighting for their outdoor spaces. Forget about lamps that are solely meant to light up, there are now countless lighting fixtures that are both stylish and functional.
For SMART AND GREEN, both quality and aesthetics are essential. For this reason, we offer lighting fixtures of various shapes and sizes to meet the needs of the widest range of people while combining the maximum amount of design features. Our lamps provide a dual experience: a stylish object by day and a Bluetooth lighting device by night. Modern outdoor spaces are equipped with beautiful lighting designs and a great quality of light that serve to showcase the area.
Technology is no longer limited to indoors. It has become an integral part of your exterior, through connected lights that can be operated from your smartphone or tablet. They can be programmed to activate, at any given time, simultaneously or separately. Things get even better when you combine lighting and ornamental objects. For example, a lighted flower pot can serve as a simple flower pot by day and brighten up your evenings when night falls. Lighted furniture items are great assets to your outdoor space.
The Swimming Pool, Not To Be Overlooked
Pool design is not available to everyone, however, should you have the means, be sure to consider it. Since the first lockdown, the market for this type of equipment has been growing rapidly. This can be explained by a need for homebound people to regain some freedom by swimming or relaxing in the pool. Once again, there is something for all tastes and budgets: from pool kits, the above-ground pool, the usual in-ground pool, the infinity pool, to the natural pool… To have such a facility in your backyard allows you to a experience escapism without having to step out of your backyard.
An ideal solution in the midst of this health crisis, when the advice is to stay at home! Owning a swimming pool is also an incentive to make it look great, so why not arrange pastel-colored lounge chairs all around it, hang a hammock in between two trees for sunbathing, and of course, install waterproof lights to illuminate your nighttime swims. Our favorite product to equip this type of water space is the sturdy and water resistant LED light ball, which serves as a decorative piece, a lighting device, as well as a fun ball to play with in the water!

Our advice for the perfect mirror selfie is to choose a white colored light that will give your photo a professional shooting-studio feel. As a general rule, placing a led strip behind a mirror is always a good solution to bring a trendy and modern touch to it. However, do be careful if you chose to set a LED strip behind a mirror in your bathroom. Some precautions should be taken. Notably, be sure to choose a LED strip with a IP44 or IP65 protection rating. Those ratings assure you that the LED are resistant to humidity or water splashing, which can happen in this space.

Many of us went back to teleworking as a result of the ongoing health crisis. Working from home has consequently become the daily routine for many people as a way of limiting the need to go out.
Choosing and Designing A Home Office
Of course, it all starts with choosing the right room. This does not always depend on your own personal wishes. Not everyone is lucky enough to have a room dedicated to their home office.
The most important thing is to have at least some space for a desk, the actual piece of furniture. Sitting down in front of it enables you to immerse yourself in your work. Above all, you should avoid working from a sofa or your bed. Choose the quietest area in your home, where there is the most light. Indeed, studies show that natural light when working contributes to both productivity and satisfaction. Start from the assumption that daylight should account for at least 40% of the luminosity required for your work.

Proper Lighting For Productive Work
The role played by light in our productivity at work is crucial. It is important to know the correct lighting for our office, what combinations we can make, and what light intensity is the most suitable.
In addition to daylight, it is also very important to have proper lighting in your home office. The ideal lighting fixture will continue to be the indispensable desk lamp. Another possibility is to add wireless table lamps to intensify the lighting while decorating your space. To best choose your lamp, it is necessary to follow several criteria. Namely:
As a minimum, try to achieve a brightness of 500 Lux to illuminate your workspace.
40 ou 60 WATTS sont largement suffisants pour éclairer votre espace de travail.
Choose a white light rather than a yellow light. A light that tends towards neutral white or cool white is better for working efficiently. It will enable you to feel comfortable and productive. Yellow light is more suitable for your living room, for example, because it generates an atmosphere that suggests relaxation.
Of course you can also place other light sources around your workspace, such as a table lamp.

The Language Of Colors
Placing other colored lights all around your workspace will enable you to define the atmosphere and personalize your home office. Specific colors are beneficial to your efficiency, hence contributing to your productivity.
For example, for your light fixtures:
Blue light is ideal for creative people. It feeds the imagination and therefore enhances inventiveness.
A violet light will help you concentrate. It works very well for those who tend to be easily mesmerized by everything that happens around them.
A pink light will bring positivity to your work area. Joy and good humor are the order of the day!
An orange light will pep you up and give you energy.
Last but not least, when choosing the lighting color for your home office fixture, be aware that red is the one color of light to avoid. This color has a tendency to irritate.

A Little History…
During the Middle Ages, people used the timeless candle for lighting until the arrival of the oil lamp in the 1780s. By definition, the oil lamp, as its name indicates, is a lamp whose fuel is oil. In those days, animal fat was mostly used, such as whale oil, although vegetable and mineral oil could also be used. During the centuries that followed, new lighting processes were introduced, including the petroleum lamp and the electroluminescent lamp. Today, there are many ways to light a room.
We are increasingly striving to illuminate in an environmentally responsible manner by means of solar energy and energy-saving lighting. Progress does not stop there. Whereas during the Middle Ages it was customary to “turn on” lights with fire, today we have a whole host of methods as varied as they are original to address this problem.
Among them is the idea of moving from a basic light switch, to the clap of hands or by voice, to control and manage your lights. In particular, the trend is towards switching on and managing one’s lighting via a simple smartphone.
Control Your Lights Via An App
The idea here is to make life easier. For that, there is only one thing to do: download an application.
Once you install the app, you’ll be able to control all the lights in your home with a single tap on your smartphone. It’s as fast as it is magical. Many people are eager for this new way of life. Indeed, as you may have already noticed, this solution does not only exist for lighting. Many everyday objects are now “connected”.
