Task lighting refers to specific lighting designed to illuminate a particular area for activities that require focus and precision, such as reading, writing, or cooking. This type of lighting is typically brighter than ambient lighting and is often adjustable to suit individual needs. Common sources of task lighting include desk lamps, under-cabinet lights, and floor lamps. Effective task lighting helps reduce eye strain and enhances productivity by providing adequate illumination where it is needed most. It can be achieved through various fixtures and styles, allowing users to choose options that complement their home decor while meeting their functional requirements.
