Finally, a floor lamp can illuminate the furniture in the living room.

Ineffective lights can be a cause of eyestrain and headaches, and make people unable to see what they're doing. Goodlighting can make your home more welcoming, too, and give it a more spacious appearance.
Flexible Types of Illumination
Floor lights are very flexible, both in terms of design and placement. Because they're portable floor lamps can shed light on any area of a room and eliminate shadows. The versatility of their design means that these type of lamps and lampshades have the added advantage of being able to blend in with the decor of a room, rather than the decor having to match existing fixed lights.
Another flexible type of illumination is track lighting. This type of illumination can act as a system for your whole room and can be adjusted whenever necessary so that it complements the room. If you want to have tracks that completely blend in with a room, so that they are barely visible, they can be painted accordingly.
Recessed illumination is also a good option, and can lights allow for the flexible downward positioning of lights. A neat effect can also be achieved by overlapping beams of light. Dimmers can be used too as a way of changing the illumination in your room.
Skylights
Skylights are a good way of helping a living room benefit from natural light. They have the advantage of also ensuring that light can reach areas of a room that window light is unable to illuminate.
