I was in my friend's dorm room the other day talking to her about how much I liked the lights in her room. She made some comment to me about how they never turn on the fluorescent light in her room and exclusively use lamps and twinkle lights to light their room. In her words the fluorescent light has "this ugly cynical old tint that's a little blue and creepy." In addition, the one fluorescent light does spread the light out very evenly throughout the room. The kinds of lights they've chosen to use instead have a very warm quality to them and, since they're spread out across the room, are actually spread out better throughout the room. It is also much dimmer than if they used one singular light in the middle of the room, however they like that better for the atmosphere of the room.
Awww the twinkle lights feel so cozy and warm! They really make the bedroom seem like a happy place that you'd feel comfortable in! Something about the twinkle lights seem really youthful and sparkly too...very iconic of dorm rooms! SO MUCH better than fluorescent lights! (which your friend's description is pretty spot on!) Nice work!
