- Hello again friends!! This week we’re diving into all things lamps & lighting & comfy vibes. A thoughtful consideration of lighting can seriously make or break a space and might be exactly what your interior is missing so sit down, get cozy, and let’s chat about it :)
In this vid I run through my general conceptual approach to lighting in interior design & architecture, things to consider in your lighting plan, color temperature & colored lamps, and finally some design icks (lighting edition): lamps w unnecessary ornament, flush mount boob lights, exposed light bulbs, and last but not least, exposed LED strips 🌟
Can’t wait to hear your thoughts!! Love u

We love a simple edit. Please don't change that. We're focused on what you're saying. I come to your videos prepared with pen and notepad in hand.
literally. dont change anything pls its ideal the way it is
Totally agree
1000% your editing style is perfect rn
I came to the comments to say this exact thing!
I echo this. Clear audio for speech, no music. Less stimulation, more quality information. I love this :)
No no no this edting style is literally perfect, don't change it. The issue with other videos in this category is that they NEVER show enough examples while talking and it always annoys me. We are here to learn visually. You're the first creator who actually shows plenty of examples, which makes everything you say easier to digest.
I like this quality, it feels like I’m in the living room of a good friend having interesting conversations
Don’t worry too much about the format.
the reference images are thoughtful and well timed. Great lesson. Thank you!
came for the chill vibes, but keep eagerly returning for the truly life changing interior tips.
I love how you don't just say 'this good' and 'this bad' but actually walk us through the philosophy behind why. it's rewiring my brain in the best way. thanks noah :)
Omg yay this makes me so happy 🙇🏻
Here for the light shade
pun intended?
Touche'
See what you did there 😂
Baa dunts 🥁
I think about “soup of light” at least once a week. Troye’s AD tour is so so good.
Would love a video where you share spaces that have inspired you!
I love his home 😊😊😊❤❤❤
was it the tour he did a couple years ago or did he do a new tour?
I am not a design nerd, but I am someone who loves learning. I recently bought a house and have been trying to be thoughtful about how to furnish it. My mind has been overwhelmed by all the things to learn about this field that I’ve never spent time thinking about before. I’m finding it hard to make much progress in turning this house into a desirable space because of all the things to consider (and all the things that I don’t know to consider!). I guess that’s why there are professionals called Interior Designers. Anyway, just letting you know that there are also design neophytes here watching and learning. If you think you’re sharing basic information that you assume someone listening might already know, assume the opposite! Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
You have quickly become my favorite interior design RUclipsr! So much thoughtfulness and actual information in your videos! Definitely thinking about lighting in a new way now :)
Been searching high and low for genuinely good interior design content and not weirdly over edited videos that leave so much to be desired in terms of personality and solid tips/teachings and finally found it here. Don't think you need to change a thing about your video editing, it's perfect!
Reluctant viewer who came for the info only, but was won over by your logical and thoughtful manner and the fact that everything you say makes so much sense. Even though I’m an ignorant philistine, you don’t make me feel so dreadful because you’re nice enough not to talk down even to the ignorant
Noah, the content is what matters, don't worry about the edit. I love your approach to design and how well you expose your view. Keep those videos coming, please.
Thank you!! A lot more to come don’t worry
Please don’t change into an AV guy! Your videos feel genuine, relaxing and approachable. Calm and informative over flashy and short-form oriented.
I'm 64, obsessed with interior design and have consumed interior magazines and now You Tube programmes on design since forever. This is by far the best channel on interior design I have ever come across. Thank you Noah. Keep up the excellent work.
Didn't even notice anything about the quality of the videos. You are so informative and engaging that the last thing on my mind was that!
I wanted to write a comment under the previous video asking about lighting! This is so great, perfect timing! Next video suggestion: how to use texture in interiors!
Yes please!! I’ve been struggling with feeling like I have too many textures happening in my living room which is done in a fairly modern approach to design but still feels slightly chaotic or something and I wonder if the textures clashing are what’s causing the feeling of “this is too much”
Yes! Textures and possibly a separate video on patterns. There's so much to cover!🤗
I’m currently building a home and have been stressing about the lighting plan so this video could not have come at a more perfect time. Seriously, thank you. You really helped me understand how to thoughtfully design my ambient lighting. I had been saving images of things I’d seen elsewhere but you were able to EXPLAIN why those designers made the choices they did (eg. ceiling lights placed close to the edge of the walls so that they light the walls rather than spaced all over). THANK YOU!
Loving the sober and theoretical approach in these videos. I have one suggestion for a topic. I really miss an advanced video on color theory for painting walls. Like, 1) wall direction and hue, 2) brightness of rooms and recommended LRV and chroma of paint, 3) how to find colors that really 'pop' next to each other for painting adjacent rooms.
If you make a video on that you will be making something truly unique that no one else is covering. But regardless I will keep following the channel :)
The voice you speaks with is calming and smoothing. It conforms me away from anxiety. When looking at these house tours, feel like I am at home.
i appreciate your interior design videos because it's as much about the theory than the aesthetics. when it comes to advice, i go to experts, chefs for recipes and techniques, dermatologists for skincare advice, chemists for hair care. now i have an interior design who can give me some insight while breaking down the information succinctly. :)
You are an amazing presenter of ideas. Very skilled at speaking and your ideas are clean and clear. Congratulations.
I’m honestly baffled that I’ve only now finally found someone on the internet who A) has the same design style and mindset to me and B) can actually articulate my thoughts on WHY which I haven’t been able to do because I’m not a professional in any aspect (at least yet lol). So I just wanted to thank you for starting your channel, you’re a blessing at least to me
thank you for bringing up the exposed light bulb issue. caged bulbs, free bulbs, weird designer bulbs with showboaty shapes. its bad when you see it at first, and it's bad when you see it in the inevitable afterimage. give your bulb a house.
All of that is true, happily there are exceptions, look at the designer Ingo Maurer
I love the straightforward approach for lightings you don't like 😅
I’ve watched so many lighting design videos and this one had something none of the other ones had, lighting philosophy. Lighting choices make much more sense. Also love the video format!
No fluff, no hype. Just solid well thought out information. I found your channel about 10 minutes ago have already subscribed, and I never do this, asked for alerts to your new content. I also love all of the examples that you flash up on the right hand side, and honestly some of the lamps lighting, that you are using as illustrations are to die for. I also like that you have featured many paper lantern style lights, like the Noguchi Akari range the Washi paper used gives a wonderful diffused lighting, and I am thinking of incorporating that into my decor I do have a lot of lights and lamps, but I’m trying to edit and make sure each one is complementary And adds to the lighting aesthetic. Love your content love you.
ok. you are amazing.
I entirely renovated my appartement a year and a half ago.
the lighting is really good, except in my tiny home office.
we didn’t give it a second thought and put integrated ceiling lights.
the result is that I never actually work in there, I work from my couch.
you’ve made me realize that all I have to do is to change the straight ceiling lights to directional ones. pretty simple.
thank you !
I do own the fake electric candles for safety reasons ( I have a cat who would knock real candles and start a fire if she could) but I only used them in concealed ways, like in vintage or ceramic lanterns I have, so you get the glow but not the heat and you don't see them at all
Finally someone addresses the exposed coloured LED lights. Tacky. Keep the vids coming. Also, nice voice.
And from someone who does care about photo/ video looks I actually really like your format of video, the constantly shuffling pictures are a chill way to add more interest and engagement than just a talking head
okay but like his voice is so soothing and the vibes are vibing, ugh immaculate
its giving ASMR
Loving this channel. I watch lots of content about interiors and it is always entertaining to me. Your videos are both entertaining and packed full of knowledge. It’s obvious that you are a true pro
Ah thank you so much 🤗
Coming from the nightlife creative scene, being a video game esthetic lover as well as hosting people regularly in my space.. saying « no colored lights » is a huge missed opportunity of creating fun and atmospheric environments.. I do realize the disclaimer in the beginning of the video that these are not general rules and thats cool, it is your own personal style or maybe a more directed content to a specific audience. But in a more general sense, I feel with light design, we should be asking the question of what is gonna be the use of the space, during the day and during the night as well as our personality and vibe we want to express through it.
Honestly the content of your videos is so good that you only need to worry about increasing production quality if it’s something you would find fun.
Some RUclipsrs need to rely on editing more if their content is lacking slightly but you are so engaging as is and your takes and explanations are so good that you really don’t need to change the way you present or edit your videos. It’s kind of refreshing and relaxing to watch.
They are honestly so high quality already like your standards must be high.
Ah I appreciate this so much, thank you!
Love your modernist principles. Could we please have more of what you do like, rather than what you don't...
And linger a little longer on some of those beautiful mid century items that flash past in the photos. Thank you 🙂.
The “shade” of it all. I love the softness and displeasure in your voice when you hate something. It says so much without saying much. lol I love it! Keep it coming and pls tell the masses again, “ Go take it down now…” lol
Hey Noah! In the future, would you consider linking the products you use as examples in your videos? It would be super helpful for viewers (ME, selfishly. Lol) if they really like something you show, and also get you a lil kickback if they buy it using your link! Just came across your channel today and your taste is *chef’s kiss* ✨
This is my first video here and I must say I love the production! It's simple, gentle, and the set up easily demonstrates what you're speaking about it! Please don't change!
Pot lights to the side. Blew me away! I bought an MCM house, the seller had installed pot lights everywhere--right down the middle. It's hideous. Hideous!
I knew pots looked better another way but I never could put my finger on how museums achieved it. Mystery solved! My jaw hit the floor when I took in the beautiful look of POT lights washing the walls. I am thrilled.
I can't wait to take them out, repair the ceilings, and reinstall them along the perimeter. I love the look! Many thanks for enlightening me. Literally.
I like your background in this vid. Feels true to u. The experience was soothing. I think if u can wear the mic (clipped on like the news anchors) u will realize an increased comfort of having both hands free.
Thanks also for keeping the images onscreen longer. And u could make it even longer. It take time to absorb images.
The landscape view of u on one half and the examples on the other half is super helpful. I did wish the ones with white frames were minus the frames. My phone screen is small enough already without the white screens. And a thing I've noticed is that white absolutely murders color. That's right, it subtracts in a huge way.
Keep 'em coming! ❤ And consider having less content per video and therefore posting more (shorter) videos. It suits this medium better.
Best,
Julia
I found your channel just a view weeks ago, and I already feel like you will be one of those people that I will follow for yearsss! It's great to see you and your channel grow from its beginning stages, keep up the great work😘
thank you for gracing us with your wisdom, wit, exquisite reference photos, and ASMR voice. do you think you’ll ever give us a tour of your home?
Just binged your entire channel as I'm getting ready to move into an actual office at work, after months of perching on the corner of any desk or conference table where I could find space. I am excited to personalize my new space, and this entire series has been such a good reminder to be patient and focus on quality, when I can feel tempted to rush and go cheap. Thank you!
Oh my gosh, I had so much fun watching this video! I feel you!!! I like how sincere you are whiling reminding how to avoid those "wrong options". This video is absolutely amazing and extremely practical. Every one should watch this! Thank you for this, can't wait to see more.
I love this video so much! You remind me of me! I feel like I've been a lone and lonely voice in abhorring overhead lighting and needing to have SO many light sources in every room, and caring so deeply about lighting in general! I look forward to being a part of your community. BTW, I'm also very sensitive to the temperature of the light in the room and find that it really matters whether the bulbs are warm vs cool, and that what is appealing definitely changes with the time of day. I've been so grateful to find that it's now possible to buy bulbs with adjustable temperature as well as adjustable brightness. And that newer ones are easier to use and don't involve yet another soul killing remote!
Interior design is becoming my newest obsession
The ceiling lights at the edge of the room is a gorgeous idea. I’m an electrical apprentice and my love of lighting design is one of the reasons I went into this trade. I hope one day to be able to design and install lighting systems that create beautiful and functional ambiances like these photos!
Can you do a video on outdoor lighting? Patio lights, path lights, up lighting trees, etc.
The thing about overhead light hitting a surface was something I kinda knew subconsciously, but you beautifully put into words how this should translate into a lighting plan/concept for ceiling lights.
This video gave me an extra boost to finally upgrade our living room with more ambient light. I bought a knockoff rice paper Akari Juni pendant and it's going to be installed asap.
Also no need to apologize for video quality. All I want is to listen to your soothing voice shittalking trashy design lol.
First time viewer... Like your simple, easy to digest presentation.
An exceptionally insightful presentation on lamps and lighting, along with their functionality within a space. As an interior designer specializing in office environments, I found this information highly informative.
You are so good at what you do!!!!!!!!!!!
Lamps really do solve almost all problems. I have 1 bedroom apartment and have multiple lamps, I hate switching on the main light. I have all sorts of lights. Friends who I invite they all say that the apartment has really good vibe and I am almost 100% its due to the lights and the soft light it spreads.
+ I am so glad your channel poped up on my feed.
Lemme tell you why your video was great and doesn't need to change. It's the same thing I said to my gf when I sent this to her in the middle of watching because it was too good to wait. You have all the example images scrolling right next to you as you spoke! Dunno if that's what you do in your other vids as I'm presently learning how to light my space and this the first I've seen of you. I've seen a lot about color temp and I understand about task, directional, accent, etc but I hadn't heard "as many light sources as possible." That got me thinking differently. I'm also not a fan of seeing a bulb and loved the bit about overly ornate lighting. Changing up my lighting is what got me referring to my apartment as my "space," and that shift in mindset has been amazing. Thank you for sharing!!
I would love to see a room or house tour of your own interiors, with you explaining why you've made choices you have!
The quality is good where it matters - you have excellent audio and the best reference photos. I went down a light bulb rabbit hole last year after I started getting into lamps and bought a vintage Robert Sonneman lamp with the globe bulbs. I also have a number of vintage halogen desk lamps. Getting LED replacements for these things can really go wrong. I never realized how terrible LED light is compared to older “burning” bulbs - they are beautiful like a flame and LED even at the “correct” color temp often just looks dead. I think the technical reason has something to do with the wavelengths that make it up, but that’s when I came to become a bulb snob haha. The British company Tala makes really lovely bulbs - their Sphere collection has adaptive color temperature for dimming so it gets warmer the dimmer you go like old style bulbs. Unfortunately the Spheres didn’t fit in my Sonneman lamp but I have their Echo table lamp with them and it is my favorite lamp ever. I use the regular Tala globe bulb in my Sonneman and I had a little bit of a breakdown because the undertone of those bulbs is just slightly more yellow green than the magenta orange undertone of the Sphere bulbs, even though their color temperature is supposed to overlap, but there was no better alternative and my husband assured me no one can tell 😂
Finally found someone who truly understands modernism and mid century. I cannot stand the bright coloured, themed replicas and busy interiors that claim to be modern. I look forward to more of your content!
Noah, I would if you could make a video about thoughtfully (and maybe budget and or renter friendly) decorating a bathroom. I find the to be the one room I simply cannot get to look right.
i'd love to know any design/modernism/architecture book recommendations you have! i feel so inspired by your channel and want to deep dive into this world. SO grateful i found you, you're introducing me to concepts that i'll carry with me into every design decision i make for the rest of my life! i didn't know how much i needed this information and direction until now. thank you for sharing your expertise
you’re gunna be so big I just know it
You provided the best information of any lighting design video I’ve seen. And I’ve watched quite a few of them recently! Thank you!!
Finally someone tutorial about lightning design that doesn't talk about 3 layer or IKEA.want more tips
you speak my love language! LOL also I love YOUR DRYNESS
I love this idea and wisdom
I’ve always hated can lights until this video. I’ve never seen or considered using them in specific groupings to highlight walls in a home… beautiful!
New subscriber, here. I really enjoyed your thoughtful analysis, and felt so understood!
Also, the quality of the video was totally fine. I was able to focus on your thoughts and wasn’t distracted by fancy editing (or cringy mistakes). Thanks for sharing!
interesting tidbits about how to be more intentional with lighting choices. aligned timing to come across as my partner and I are considering how to make our lighting situation more purposeful, thoughtful, and efficient in our working & business space for our community. we own a strength and conditioning facility and meditation studio, so we get to style a very industrial warehouse, and very zen, cozy space. love the contrast and opportunity to experiment different styles. ty for the tips !! 🤍& agree with others, very cozy vibe to your vid.
New favorite channel!! Excited to see your growth, I already know you are going to reeeeaally succeed in this space
Thank you. I enjoy your no-nonsense approach. Could you do a video on bricks. There seems to be a range of types and processes which lead to different finishes. Think it would be interesting. Also the impact that brick selection will impact interiors.
your videos are perfect as they are. also - troye's AD tour is one of my faves :)
Love the video! I slightly disagree with the colored lighting/bulbs. Most people just use them wrong and make their whole room look like a video game. As long as they're used as accents to supplement the normal bulbs and don't dominate the room, they can add a nice touch!
Lol “go take it down” this is a great channel - I’m designing my therapy office and I love your knowledge and insight. Thanks!
You have such a soothing voice and calmness!
Loved the video 🦋
I always have set the mood with lamps and candles. Movie settings are exactly like this too. I don’t understand people who dine with their ceiling bright white lamp and tv on
I love my soft glows amd candles 😊
yay, new video! you're my new favorite interior design youtuber
I love your channel. THANK YOU.
Absolutely love these videos. The concepts are super clear, and I'm learning a lot. Thanks Daniel!
I’ve only seen one video but that’s all it took. I’m subscribing & will be watching from here on out. 💕
I love your calm presentstion of things its like chill serious. Very asmr vibes lmao
I've fallen in love with your channel. Your words clearly and thoughtfully elucidate stuff I kinda always felt but had no idea why. And knowing the 'why' is insanely helpful. Thank you!
Nevertheless, I was not looking forward to this lighting video, as I have hated all other lighting videos and every piece of lighting advice I've ever read - they always make me feel like I can't do that or I can't afford it. But no, what a ninnyhead I was! Your lighting thoughts are fabulous. And smart. And illuminating (sorry). And achievable - especially in a tiny country where having to make changes that involve an electrician isn't very achievable at all.
I looooooove your honesty! I just took down my LED lights! I totally agree with you!!
i like the quality if your videos, its like we're having a nice chat... and its very cozy.
Really like your video's and feel with your style a lot. Real nice to get to understand why I hate or love certain design choices in more detail! And indeed, as a filmmaker I totally agree on with this lightening one! Also curious about your own interiors, maybe nice to film the next one with for-, mid- and background? :) And I just love your calm tone of voice, so cute!
Love the quality of your content, so usefull. Watched this one twice. Like the simple and kind way of your presentation. Bravo
I really appreciated this video, thanks for sharing! :)
Thanks for the video! Yeah, I 100% agree about the importance of light. I got a new studio apartment recently, and the first thing I got, before even a coffee table or a TV stand was a lamp.
you're so unapologetic about your tips, I really like that.
Great video! I'm a lighting designer and I've done everything from residential to manufacturing! In many warmer countries, cool lighting is more common. So many cool things happening in lighting right now! Its a great time to be in the space.
I have a dark corner behind a large chair. I put an uplight behind it so it is lit, bit not bright. It just gives a cozy vibe, along with my little lamp family! Great content!
Love the simplicity of the video, such a calm one to watch. So many lessons to be learned, when you talked about exposed bulbs I couldn't help but look over at the one I have hanging over my desk and hang my head in shame ahah
amazingly enough
I actually got this video every bit of it it made perfect sense to me
And actually it was really helpful for me to think about lighting in a different way
I regret to inform you that I have boob lights all over my apartment
I've only been here a month and a half but I absolutely hate them and it makes sense to me as to why
I don't use them
I really really have to and it's usually only for whatever task I'm trying to complete which isn't very very long
And I have one of those retro lights in the kitchen which is so ugly
But I had electrical problems when I moved in apparently one of the outlets wasn't grounded and it was causing sizzling spitting sparking
Even though I don't nervous to try because I got them at a secondhand store and the wiring is old
I haven't used them either but when you are purchasing lighting I think it's really important for you you understand what the goal is
Confused and cool and it might actually be a waste of money
Thankfully I have invested anything yet I think lighting is probably the last thing people considered doing because the expense can be pretty great especially when you're thinking about the different tasks you would like lighting and how many lamps you might need to get
That isn't include hardwired
I also noticed that when you're in a room that is a shared dining room and living room not only is the flooring continuous and in this space it's ugly there's no definition so you have to create that with replacing the whole floor so it's uniform throughout and then you would still want to emphasize that area especially if it's continuous with rug and positioning of your furniture
I think most of us are not intentional by nature because we've been raised to be in constant sympathetic nervous mode where we're just not aware of ourselves others and our surrounding and of course this is the addiction to social media
We're overstimulated and so having a hard time focusing attention in one area
I try not to draw my inspiration from others I try to let the space and the materials in that space guide me
So right now I have a so-called beanbag chair which is stuffed with foam so it's not really a beanbag chair is it?
That was my original inspiration and then I like furniture material such as rattan wicker those types of things
I like light and airy
As far as lighting is concerned I think the best lighting in the world is natural and I love it so much
So that goes along with what I've already shared
But I have another side of me that really likes dark and moody
I do like Rich
I like opulence
I enjoy minimalism and I am very much love Maximalism so I think I'm confused to a degree but I'm just appealing to all sides of my nature
I think lighting in a dark and moody environment would make more sense to a person who doesn't really have any understanding of lighting whatsoever because then it would have to be extremely intentional and yes you would want to focus lighting areas that you wish to accentuate like you said whether it's a piece of furniture a space that someone would need extra lighting in to navigate plants or a floral arrangement or something of that nature books
as I get older I think those types of things really interest me and I would have to say that a person who is a designer more than likely has an attention for detail and that's why they gravitated to this field and of course they might have a lot of Venus in their chart where they really enjoy things that are aesthetically pleasing
There was an area of interest which wasn't mentioned and I think it might be a good idea for you to take this into consideration and if you have no understanding perhaps educate yourself because you were touching on it but it wasn't being discussed and perhaps it's because you know but we weren't conveying that way that people should know about and understand
Set mood and there is a specific reason for not being aesthetic
You mentioned feelings and disruptive and having the wrong vibe and it is true that there is such a thing as dirty electric and this is an actual science space study that test that certain lighting apparatuses actually admit electric and it can be a health hazard which would explain why some people can't explain why they're not comfortable in that space it could very well have to do with the lighting itself
People who are using certain lightbulbs and they're using it for task like reading themselves to potentially dangerous substances that are being admitted from their lighting and they could end up with something like cancer
As long as you educate yourself and which are the safest lighting options in conjunction with what you're trying to achieve and you're attempting to balance things where isn't unnatural I think it would work very well for any person who is learning the safety and the mechanisms behind design
O m g!!!! I’ve been struggling with what light I should put in my apartment-hallway-entryway-foyer and I think the directional canned ceiling light would be amazing! I have a large piece of art in my foyer so I can direct it towards there. #intentionallighting !!! Thank you!
Omg this makes me so happy 🥹 yay!
Loved your vibe, not just the content !!!
Perfect timing! I’m building a home at the moment and we are just making final decisions on lighting. The was really inspiring, thank you
I went to Ikea with a friend last week and bought a new table lamp. My friend always says: do you really need more lights? Yes, yes I do 😁
I like this kind of edit, simple and cozy ☺️
Perfect. I have spend the last month looking for a pendent lamp for my dining table. Good advice . I think after seeing this I know which lamp to buy,
I love how this is giving ASMR. Vibing.
Thank you so much for your lighting advice. I have changed my mind about installing can lights in my great room and the caged light in my dining room! Also explaining the light temperature has really helped me know what light bulbs to replace my old ones with. The lighting strips in the correct area has been invaluable and I will not be using colored ones! Again, thanks!
Omg!
I wish everyone had seen this video
