4th Lighting Observation

February 24th, 2026 – 7:53 pm – Cherry Lane Kitchen
We recently had a few lightbulbs go out in our kitchen, so naturally we bought new lightbulbs to replace the burnt out ones. The lightbulbs we ended up buying and installing were warm-toned, whereas the ones we had were cool-toned. Before we realized that the tones clashed, there was a moment of both warm and cool tones being on at the same time.
Both the warm and cool tones being in close proximity was actually a cool effect. The cool-toned light was on the right, and the warm-toned light was on the left. The wall directly between both lights was a more neutral hue, but the further away you got from the centerpoint the more the wall would take on a different tone (so the further right you went the cooler it looked, and to the right it was warm). This was a great everyday example of color mixing/theory.
