Factoring light and shade, a budget-friendly way to dial up chicness at home, is an important trend in home architecture now. Growing awareness of lighting and well-being is also driving this demand

An interesting play of light and shade works wonders in accentuating architectural details, says Aryaman Jain, CEO of Innovative Lighting Designs Limited, New Delhi. He elucidates, “At a Delhi home, we highlighted the front wings of the residence using up-lighting to enhance the verticality of the building, while the central double-height space was kept muted without any lighting, creating a dramatic contrast.”

At another Delhi residence, Aryaman worked with large exposed concrete walls. To highlight them, he opted to follow the home’s architecture for the lighting. “We also lit up the metal fins and louvers finished in antique brass to lend an element of excitement,” he says.
