Hey mate! Managed to just find them in IKEA today - the name is "Mittled". I'd link them but I think I only have access to the Australian IKEA website haha. Hope that helps though??
clicked on this immediately cause lighting is something i've always struggled with in my room to the point that i've just kept my lights off for most of the time
the bit where you color shifted the "pretty much just try to reduce contrast" text to be less contrasted against the rest of the frame as you're talking about how that reduces eye fatigue?? brilliant *chefs kiss*
I never thought i'd watch a comprehensive video about lighting a room, but your aestetics, editing and overall vibe just hook me with every video Avi, keep them coming!
Honestly, this is a banger. Been trying to figure out how to add a bit of warmth to my workspace because my downlights are so cold and bright. IKEA time, thanks boss!
i live in a small flat and I've been searching for ways to improve my room lighting and then this video pops up. You were able to express your creativity and how you manage to light the room very well! and I gotta say its inspiring! thanks mate. Keep up the good work
What you mentioned at 1:36… I believe it has a term called “relative luminance”. It’s a ratio between the ‘brightness’ (luminance) of the task area to the surrounding area (it depends a lot on the colour and distance of the surrounding area). But over all, too big ratio (in this case, either your screen is too bright and your surrounding light is too dim, or vice versa) = too contrast = causing eye strain, which might make you feel a dull headache after a period of time. In some cases can trigger migraine. So yes! The analogy about taking picture out of the window makes perfect sense! I came across your video and was pleasantly surprised when you mention that! Sorry for geeking out, great video!
This comes at the perfect time! I‘m going to move into a new apartment soon and thinking a lot about how to light it. Thanks for the inspiration, love the diverse design-related content you are putting out 🙌
2:50 ish: kelvin as in the temperature. Color temperature as in heat. How hot a piece of metal has to get to glow in that color temperature. 3500k is the color that a wire will glow at when it's 3500 degrees kelvin.
This is such great advice on how to light a space. Quick video and engaging, and I liked the inclusion of the IKEA lights and how to set them up. Thanks!
In case somebody cares about the kelvin scale, it works this way: - Kelvin is am easure of temperature (usually); - Colors near the red have less energy while colors near the violet have more; - temperature = energy, so the higher the temperature (kelvin) the closer to violet the colour is; The reason we call them warm and cold lights is because we associate them with regions that are colder or warmer even tho "cold lights" have more energy there fore more temperature. I think I explained it fairly well.
I was searching for a different video about lighting and light sources. But stumble upon your video and actually watched the whole thing, enjoyable and good video.
Speaking of cozy, your videos are! Maybe it's the aspect ratio or the camera or a little bit of everything, but I love the cinematography of your videos. Keep up the good work!
I really liked the format of this video, the resolution. It's not like a standard wide screen video, more a 4:3. Really gives it a cozy or professional quality vibe.
There's also accent lighting which lands in the middle; like a spotlight lighting up an artwork, texture on a wall or like the lighting on your plant. Generally use less accent lighting in small space, but it can help create some drama. Love from Melbourne
The most helpful advice in this video for me as a beginner is the "harsh vs diffuse" and " work spots" because my room ended up being to dark but now it makes more sense on what lighting i need to purchase
Lord Kelvin is one of the most important mathematical physicists in history. The Kelvin scale for lighting temperature is i think derived from the light you get from heating something up to that many degrees Kelvin. ( a measure of temperature like celsius or Fahrenheit) ❤
As a lover of good Keyboard content, this is exactly what I've been looking for! Lol. Well done, and thank you! Lights are far too often "Too Much". I'm always irritated at lights helping less with seeing what I intend to look at and more make me look at the light. Overhead lights try to illuminate it all but that means they aren't defused and feel like a flash bang if you ever look anywhere near their direction. Overhead office lights are scattered to perfectly always have at least one blasting your retnas all day as you stare into the equally blue pc screens 😅. So I've been wanting to learn this skill to create that inviting glowing room that you basically forget lights are on at all. Subtle and sensible is what I think you've achieved and I love that. 👍
nice! this might be the only channel I'd trust with lighting advice haha convenience is cool, but I like seeing the space light up slowly with a more tactile feedback
This is super helpful! Def branch out more into more topics in your videos. Would love to learn more about how you get inspo or a day in the life of being a full-time creative (is that what you call it?)
Great video Avi! Love the tips as I also use this recipe for my own space. Also great vibe and video editing. Another tip on the IKEA smart bulb is that you can also get the one which can change colors. By that I don't mean the crazy RGB colors but the adjustable white tones ones. I highly recommend as I personally use them in my workspace/bedroom. Basically you can adjust it to create different modes for the room. For example I'd love to have the 4000K cool white for my highly focusing mode, the 2700K warmer white for more relaxing activities and the 2200K really warm white - almost yellow tone for when I'm chilling in my bed - and it's cool that they're also dimmable!. It's super helpful for people who live in such a small space like me that we can adapt the lights for different activities.
Hey Avi, was just wondering. Do you stick the Mittled light on the back of your PC or under your desk? Could you make a video explaining how you connected all the lights to the IKEA wireless features. Thank you!
Hey Avi, thanks for such a great video, love your sense of style! What type of lights did you use for your shelves above your monitors? I have a similar layout myself. Thanks!
Thank you! I can't seem to find it on the IKEA Australia website but it was a cheapo one from there haha. There are a few options that are clip-on etc!
If you’re designing something cozy here’s a hack I found to work for me. Pick a color temperature slightly BELOW 2700k. Standard light bulbs sold at stores only go down to 2700k (soft white) but sometimes you can find vintage bulbs or amber tinted bulbs that are between 2200 - 2500k. This slightly lower temperature is more “orange” looking but as long as it’s above 2000K it looks fine and it makes the space look very cozy, almost as if it is lit by candlelights
Yes, the numbers he’s throwing out are totally wrong and will lead to a horribly cold space. Even the color chart he throws up is wrong, but simultaneously his room looks nice so he must just have the number wrong.
Really loved the video man, this is the exact vibe i'm going for in my room. Btw, what is your table lamp called (the one on the right)? Like it very much
Great video! I Subscribed. I'll put a few more on my watch later list Also, interesting aspect ratio. Any reason for that? Kinda fits the cozy vibes of your office
A harsh source isn't necessarily small and a diffused not necessarily large. it's more about how the light get's shaped or if there's some kind of diffusing material infront of your lamp
❤Soooooo.. helpful. I've been thinking why aren't my lamp😢 enough and my focus good. I have three different bulb with 😮different Calvin's and all the bulbs in my kitchen are different, etc THANK YOU..!!!!!!!! I was going insane.🎉
The word for what you're calling "harsh" is "specular" - the opposite of diffuse. Like sunshine on a clear day: crisp, defined shadows. #PleaseLetMeUseWhatILearnedInFilmSchool

Hey Avi, are you able to link to the light bars you are using to backlight your screens?
Hey mate! Managed to just find them in IKEA today - the name is "Mittled". I'd link them but I think I only have access to the Australian IKEA website haha. Hope that helps though??
@@AvinashKunjamboo thank you, are they a warm ligth as well?
gosh, this is how I just want to light, everything. It's so nice and cozy feeling.
lesgoooo
clicked on this immediately cause lighting is something i've always struggled with in my room to the point that i've just kept my lights off for most of the time
what? that sounds more like depression than a lighting problem... or do you mean when it's not dark/dim outside?
@@felity1773 yeah i more meant i only let outside light in and don't turn on my overhead light ever
the bit where you color shifted the "pretty much just try to reduce contrast" text to be less contrasted against the rest of the frame as you're talking about how that reduces eye fatigue?? brilliant *chefs kiss*
man can notice the details thank u thank u
I never thought i'd watch a comprehensive video about lighting a room, but your aestetics, editing and overall vibe just hook me with every video Avi, keep them coming!
Thank you so much man!!!
@@AvinashKunjamboo anytime! You deserve it
Honestly, this is a banger. Been trying to figure out how to add a bit of warmth to my workspace because my downlights are so cold and bright. IKEA time, thanks boss!
glad it's a bit of help dude!!
Nice edit Avi, pleasure to tute you at Uni. Great to see what you have been up to! Keep rolling the content 😎
Ah shit thank you Ben!!! We should keep in touch! ✌️

This is so interesting! No need to apologise at all - will definitely be keeping this one in mind haha. Thanks mate!
Dynamic range too
“Idk who kelvin is but”😂😂 loved it man! Definitely gonna try this out on my space!😊
HAHA thank you man! Always stoked to see ya here
Will definitely be coming back to this video when I move into a new place and start furnishing
glad to know I already lit my space following this formula, it’s definitely the best way to have a cozy work environment
this is so so good, will be looking back at this in 3 years when I have my own space
This comes at the perfect time! I‘m going to move into a new apartment soon and thinking a lot about how to light it. Thanks for the inspiration, love the diverse design-related content you are putting out 🙌
hell yeah man thank you! and congrats on the new place!
I'm happy this way of lighting rooms/workspaces is growing on people.
Awesome video as always.❤🔥
thank you bossman, cozy always pops off

Awesome analogy of helping your eyes and the example of taking pictures out of a window.

I have been searching for this content lately and then this video came out. I love it so much!
fricking love the squareish aspect ratio, so cool
This advice BLEW MY MIND, thank you so much, my house is going to look amazing now.
1:13 is such a mood 😂😂😂 thanks for the great tips Avi!!
holy heck im only like 30 seconds into this video but its already shot and edited SOOO NICELY??? wow im excited to keep watching
WTF I DIDNT KNOW IKEA HAD SMART LIGHTING HOLY SHIT
thanks for the helpful tips :D
@@LuckyLifeguard haha thank you so much! glad you got something out of it

Your house/room is definitely my type, at so many aspects. Dude, that's incredible job!
I love this. A simple few simple concepts that I can easily apply to my space and be excited about doing so.
This video is really helpful!! I really enjoyed hearing about the IKEA smart bulbs. They sound like a gamechanger for cozy lighting. Thank you!
Would love to see a lot more of this kind of videos!

thank you man! always a treat to have someone notice haha
you made exactly the video i was looking for. I had seen these videos, im working on my space, and hopping for something longer-form. thanks!
I love it Avi!! Diversifying beyond keebs are great! 🙌 amazing and captivating videos as always ❤️
There's also accent lighting which lands in the middle; like a spotlight lighting up an artwork, texture on a wall or like the lighting on your plant. Generally use less accent lighting in small space, but it can help create some drama. Love from Melbourne
Ah shit true! Completely forgot this one. Thanks mate! So close by!
This is the mist easiest way to understand how to design lights in a room! Thank you somuchh

wow the edition and tips is sooo good
Super cozy and useful light in this room, great video, thanks!
thank you!!!
Exactly what I needed. Great work !
Thank you Avi, now I'll be scouring my nearest Ikea for lamps. Awesome tips though! I think you should do more videos like this.
haha thank you! very much noted

Lights are far too often "Too Much".

An hour late from Avi's premiere is a crime. Bingus.
(I'm hoping for more cinematography tips)
Noted king
nice! this might be the only channel I'd trust with lighting advice haha
convenience is cool, but I like seeing the space light up slowly with a more tactile feedback
This was just the video I needed. Thank you so much! It was very well made, love the title shots with your hands >
this is exactly what i needed to see! moving to a new flat where i have no windows in my bedroom so im going as cosy as possible to compensate
amazing mate! let me know how you go. i've just moved into a new place myself so i'm glad you're getting some benefit from this!
This is super helpful! Def branch out more into more topics in your videos. Would love to learn more about how you get inspo or a day in the life of being a full-time creative (is that what you call it?)
totally gonna implement these ideas! Thanks for the tips
Thanks a bunch mate! Glad it helped
Fantastic video man and I'm so glad I found it. Great info and inspiration packed in!
thanks boss!! glad you got something out of it man

It's super helpful for people who live in such a small space like me that we can adapt the lights for different activities.
Should point out that 4000K is not actually cool. It's still warm. 5500-6500 is neutral. Anything below is warm, anything higher is cool.
@@artonzeif962 my bad , I guess it's to still be usable in living spaces, not the cool hospital white.
I love your film style!
Underrated video. Thanks for the tips. And please do more of those anguish facial expressions lol
Haha much appreciated. Thanks for stopping by!
This is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks man.
Thank you big man, i gotta fix my room lighting now
damn bro this editing is fire! shots and all
thank you man!
Such a good tutorial. Thank you! Also, your setup looks so clean! 😊
I didn’t want a home office until now😍 We’re on! Nice Video Homie
I love love loveeee your work !!!
Couple weeks late but thank you bro!
2:17 "wanted to make sure there was a good 'balance' ". Meanwhile, the desk lamp is barely hanging for dear life off the edge.
Cool video man.
This video really healed me thanks man
Hi, what font did you use for the title at 0:39? Thank you
looks like the riccione font family, probably light, with low letter spacing
Hi Avi! Where is that paper lantern from? Thanks again for this awesome video ✨
Hey mate! It's also from IKEA haha. Not sure the model though sorry!
@@AvinashKunjamboo thank you so much!!
Hey Avi, was just wondering. Do you stick the Mittled light on the back of your PC or under your desk? Could you make a video explaining how you connected all the lights to the IKEA wireless features. Thank you!
Heya! It's attached to the back of the desk, shining towards the wall. I reckon I can make a video about connecting them for sure!
I am in love with your room! Can we get a tour please?
I have a set up tour for that room but since then I've moved! Gotta get onto making videos again haha
Hey Avi, thanks for such a great video, love your sense of style! What type of lights did you use for your shelves above your monitors? I have a similar layout myself. Thanks!
I just put a lamp in my room and it totally changed the vibe!
This video is amazingly made
Nice video! What's the clamp light on your bed at 0:00 ?
Thank you! I can't seem to find it on the IKEA Australia website but it was a cheapo one from there haha. There are a few options that are clip-on etc!
@@AvinashKunjamboo Appreciate it! Will try to look for it.
I think I found it, the kvart lamp
brooo the info in this is so useful and your title screens are ELITEEE 🔥🔥🔥

Thanks mate! 2700K
Avi DOP era, sick vid again 👌
Man is trying hahahahah thank you dude
i love this!! i miss being able to buy lamps- now i live in a sch q
accommodation so it’ll be a nightmare to ship later on when i move out :(
you need a million subs fr
Great video! I Subscribed. I'll put a few more on my watch later list
Also, interesting aspect ratio. Any reason for that? Kinda fits the cozy vibes of your office
Thank you so much! Haha honestly the aspect ratio was just a stylistic choice for a bit but now my camera actually shoots 3:2 so I've just left it
A harsh source isn't necessarily small and a diffused not necessarily large. it's more about how the light get's shaped or if there's some kind of diffusing material infront of your lamp

Shout out to a fellow Adelaidean. Would love to see an office/apartment tour.

Love this type of content. Just wondering, what lamp are you using on the desk to light the desk and keyboard/mouse?
i second this. we need it!!
you light my space 💡
RGB globes are fun to play with, you can change through the whole colour range.
