Full Spectrum Lighting and Color


In the world of art it is well known that in order to see color accurately, full spectrum lighting is essential. Museums insist on using full spectrum in their exhibit areas and restoration work. While most of us are not working in art museums, many of us can benefit from the increased accuracy in color perception that full spectrum lighting provides. Tasks where color matters are myriad. They include sewing, make-up, interior design, and reading from a computer screen.

The even distribution of wave lenghths in full spectrum bulbs avoids the high concentration of some wave lengths combined with the absence of others found in conventional lighting sources. Where wave lenghths are missing, the eye cannot perceive the associated colors.

Full spectrum lighting is now available on the market at reasonable prices. Check www.desklampdaddy.com for a sale on these lights through September.
