Step 3 · Keep colors consistent by area
Color temperature determines the feel of a room — warm and relaxing, or crisp and energizing. Keep one Kelvin per area for a clean, intentional look.
1. Choose the vibe. Warm, neutral, or cool?
2. Apply that Kelvin to the entire area. Mixing temperatures makes spaces feel disjointed.
3. Adjust per fixture if needed. You can fine-tune individual lights later.
