Color temperature affects ambiance, appearance, and visual comfort. Choosing the right temperature is crucial for curb appeal.
Warm vs Cool Lighting
- 2700K–3000K: Warm, inviting, cozy (ideal for homes)

- 4000K–5000K: Cooler, crisp, modern look (good for commercial or security lighting)

Tips for Best Effect
- Use warm lighting for paths and patios
- Use cool lighting for security areas or accents
- Combine different temps carefully for balance
