We understand the importance of having the right lighting to complement your space, which is why our product range includes both fixtures with integrated LED lights and options that allow you to choose your bulbs separately. To learn more about LEDs check out our essential guide to LEDs.


Integrated LEDs...

A significant portion of our lighting collection features integrated LEDs. These are lights where the LED technology is built directly into the fixture, providing a sleek and seamless design. Integrated LEDs are known for their long life and energy efficiency, offering convenience and cost savings over time.


Retro-fit LEDs...

For fixtures that do not come with integrated lighting, houseof offers a range of high-quality retro-fit LED bulbs. Opting for LED bulbs from our selection ensures compatibility with your chosen fixture and takes advantage of LED lighting benefits, including energy efficiency, longer lifespan, and reduced environmental impact.


Choosing a bulb...

When choosing a bulb for your houseof lighting fixture, consider the following:

Compatibility. Ensure the bulb fitting matches your fixture and the bulb's size and shape suits the design of the light.

Brightness. Look at the Lumen rating to find a bulb that provides the brightness you need for the function of the light.

Colour temperature. Decide whether you want a warm or cool hue to match the mood and function of your space.

Illuminating support...

Beyond bulbs, understanding the broader aspects of lighting design can significantly enhance the ambiance and functionality of your space. From the right type of lighting (ambient, task, accent) to how different fixtures (ceiling, wall, table and floor) work together, our goal is not just to sell you a light but to illuminate your world in the most beautiful, efficient, and harmonious way possible.
