## Task Lighting

### What Is Task Lighting?

Lighting designed to illuminate specific areas for function—like reading or cooking. It’s a foundational element in many home designs that helps define the space and support your room’s function.

### Why It Matters in Interior Design

Designers often use task lighting to add character and intention to a room. Whether the goal is to save space, increase comfort, or add style, this feature plays an essential role in how a home feels.

### How to Use It in Your Home

Think practically: where does task lighting fit into your life? Then, add personality with finishes, textures, or complementary pieces. With the right use of task lighting, your space becomes more personal, polished, and pulled together.
