Lighting

Sometimes, the simple fact of altering the lighting of the facade can give it a totally different look. In modern houses this resource is widely used to illuminate the walls and floors. In these cases you will have to decide for white light as the low consumption, light bulbs of warm light, or led lights of other colors (there are many colors available).
