There are so may different type of bulbs and light fixtures. However, in my researched i chose several different "energy saving light bulbs". This is because homes all around the world, want to save up on electricity bill.
What am I doing?
I am simulating real world lighting in the Virtual World in a fixed interior preset. I have already chosen the two places that probably use the most lighting in a home, The Bed Room & The Living Room. This was all explained in my Level One Design Board in the previous post.
