Theres usually at least one in every house; the windowless room that defies decorating. Maybe its the narrow kitchen in your townhouse, or the den you built in your basement, or the afterthought fourth bedroom. Whatever the case, how can you make it feel less like a cave?

LIGHT UP THE SITUATION

Your first instinct might be to flood the room with fluorescent lighting. Ignore this instinct. Fluorescent lights give off a pale white light, which in contrast to incandescent bulbs, can seem cold. They are associated with psychologically cold, sterile environments - hospitals, offices, schools - and cold linoleum and efficiency. While efficiency may be a reasonable work atmosphere, its hardly cozy.

In fact, some studies indicate that fluorescent lighting makes some people irritable. The ballasts that are in most fixtures produce light on a frequency of sixty cycles a second. While this is lower than most peoples perceptual thresholds, it can be subliminally detected by many people, who can be emotionally effected without realizing it. (And you thought it was your co-workers and boss who were making you so cranky all these years!)
