I’ve seen some friends that keep their places like caves; all curtains and blinds closed with maybe some lights on. Some even going so far as to put up foil and completely blocking out light. I like having blinds and curtains open with maybe just a sheer curtain to diffuse the light but I enjoy it being bright. So how do you like your space lit with natural light?

    This is one of my partner and my biggest conflict points.

    Like Gollum, she lives in the darkest, gloomiest basement, keeps the shades shut and only wants dim, warm amber light in the insufficient and poorly located light receptacles.

    I on the other hand want to see what I’m doing and will open every window, tune the lights to the most white-hot, surface-of-the-sun white, and half the time I’m sitting in my hammock on the patio so I can feel the warm sunshine and get the omnidirectional sunlight. I’d like to set up her basement with some light tunnels and better lighting fixtures at some point.

    I am objectively correct in this matter. :D
