What is LED cove light? 

Cove lighting LED fixtures are a basic lighting technique that creates diffused lighting to illuminate a space. Modern cove ceiling fixtures produce a gentle, smooth distribution of light by concealing the light source and bouncing the light off a wall or ceiling.

Recessed cove lighting extrusions have both decorative and functional uses. They can significantly soften the light into uniform linear lighting while also hiding the strips from view.

The base aluminum profile, diffuser, end caps, and mounting channel clips make up the components of cove and valance lighting fixtures, which are usually sold by the component. Linear cove lighting profiles can easily be cut to size using a hand saw. Check out our blog post on tips for cutting led channels.

Benefits of using cove lighting 

Lighting designers and experts believe that one of the most cost-effective ways to add a luxurious appeal to any room is by using LED cove lighting molding fixtures. They provide appealing lines that simulate the appeal of natural light without the harsh glow of traditional lighting techniques. Some of the many reasons why you should add indirect light such as ceiling molding for LED lights are:

  • Add an elegant look to your business.
  • Eliminate shadows and help renovate dead spaces in your home.
  • Highlight the ceiling design and decor.
  • Help expand ceilings and enlarge spaces by adding light. (I.e Installing living room cove light ceiling fixtures)
  • Create a warm and inviting atmosphere in your home using any kind of cove lights for the ceiling. 

What to consider when installing LED cove lighting

LED strips are not only extremely versatile, but they are also very simple to install on your own even on curved cove lighting. The aluminum channels can be cut with a handsaw and installed without the use of any special tools. DIY LED cove lighitng has never been easier. Here is what you should consider when developing your LED strip cove lighting projects.

Color temperature

Color temperature is measured in kelvins - the lower the temperature, the warmer the light. To choose the best color for cove LED lighting, here are some questions to consider:

  • What kind of environment do you want to create? Warmer temperatures promote relaxation, whereas cooler temperatures promote focus and awareness.
  • What home interior design are you looking for? Color temperature and ceiling cove design are both important factors to consider. If you prefer a more modern look, opt for cooler temperatures. Warmer temperatures are preferable for vintage decor.
  • Is there any other lighting fixture in the room? If so, you should take into account matching the CCT of that lighting.

How to use valance lighting to make any room look fancy

You don't need to be a professional to easily add accent lights to your home. We know there are many lighting options available for your kitchen cabinets, false ceilings, linear cove lighting, and more. In this article, we will explain how you can easily accommodate LED indirect light in any room.

What is valance lighting?

A method of indirect lighting, by concealing the fixture behind a suspended valance, whereby the light can be directed upward or downward.

Cove, soffit, and valance are the three types of architectural lighting that are most frequently used; they are all incorporated into the design of the room.

Cove lighting bounces light upwards toward the ceiling or upper wall from a ledge, shelf, or recess high up on a wall.

Interior soffit lighting is an excellent lighting option as it helps the light shine downward to illuminate the wall creating an elegant soft glow.

Valance lighting is a horizontal shield made of wood, metal, or glass that can be mounted above windows or high on walls, reflecting the light both upward and downward.

Where to install valance lighting fixtures

Many lighting experts prefer indirect lighting because it reduces shadows and glare. Valance lighting is a good choice for living rooms, bedrooms, and kitchens. It can also be considered to be installed at a lower height for lighting-specific tasks such as reading in bed. Here are some examples of where you can install them:

Under cabinet lights - This type of lighting can be used with linear light fixtures, LED lights are one of the most suitable options for light valance under cabinet projects such as under cabinet lighting for frameless cabinets. Cabinet valance lighting can even help to save money on your energy bill as LED strips are energy-efficient, long-lasting, and emit minimal heat compared to incandescent light bulbs

Recessed cove lighting - Making a stylistic statement while adding indirect lighting is easy with recessed cove lighting. This is a common technique where the light source is tucked away and concealed among the walls, cornices, or ceiling light valance.

Retail display lighting - Valance lighting immediately improves the appearance of your merchandise. Use across aisles to improve lighting and atmosphere for your merchandising displays or in the Health & Beauty aisles to produce a more individualized, luxury shopping experience.

Cove lighting - Bedroom cove lighting or ceiling cove lighting, in general, is a type of lighting that is installed in a cove, or recessed area, and provides a soft, diffused light. LED cove lighting is a popular choice for office spaces, retail stores, and restaurants, as it creates a warm and inviting atmosphere. Living room and bathroom cove lighting are also popular places in residential areas where LED valance lighting can be installed

It is often used to highlight architectural cove ceiling detail features or to add a decorative touch to a room. Valance lighting can be installed in a variety of ways, such as recessed into the ceiling or wall or mounted on the surface. It can provide ambient lighting or create a particular mood or atmosphere in a space.

It is a popular choice for adding a decorative touch to a room, and can be used in combination with other types of lighting to create a well-balanced and functional lighting design.

What is the difference between valance and cove lighting?

Valance lighting and cove lighting are both types of indirect lighting that are installed along the ceiling or walls of a room. Both types of lighting are used to add a decorative touch to a space, and can be used to highlight architectural features or to create a particular mood or atmosphere.

One main difference between valance lighting and cove lighting is the location of the light source. Valance lighting is installed along the bottom edge of the ceiling or a wall, while cove lighting is installed along the top edge of the ceiling or a wall. Valance lighting is often used to highlight the lower parts of a room, while cove lighting is used to highlight the upper parts of a room.

Another difference between the two is the way the light is diffused. Valance lighting is typically installed in a way that allows the light to be diffused evenly along the length of the valance, while cove lighting is often installed with a diffuser that helps to evenly distribute the light across the ceiling.

Overall, the choice between valance lighting and cove lighting will depend on the specific needs and preferences of the space in which it is being installed. Both types of lighting can be used to add a decorative touch to a room and can be used in combination with other types of lighting to create a well-balanced and functional lighting design.

How Does Knife Edge Cove Lighting Work?

Knife edge cove lighting is typically installed using a combination of led lights and a specialized reflector. The lights are installed in a cove or channel, typically made of aluminum, that is hidden along the edge of the ceiling. The reflector is then used to direct the light from the leds towards the edge of the ceiling, where it creates a sharp line of light.

This type of lighting can be controlled by dimmer switch, that allows you to adjust the brightness and color temperature of the light to suit your preferences.

Benefits of Knife Edge Cove Lighting

There are many reasons why knife edge cove lighting is becoming an increasingly popular choice for architects and designers. Some of the most notable benefits of this type of lighting include:

Flexibility: Knife edge cove lighting is incredibly flexible and can be used in a wide range of spaces, from homes and offices to commercial buildings.

Versatility: This type of lighting can be adjusted to suit a wide range of needs, from providing a soft ambient light to creating a dramatic focal point.

The precise angle of the light created by knife edge cove lighting creates a unique look that is both modern and timeless. It's a great choice for anyone looking to add a touch of elegance to their space while also enjoying the energy-saving benefits of led lighting.
