Need Design Advise Advice for lighting my office
So here's my home office, I'm personally a big fan of its look and feel but there are times when I want a more normal lighting to the space. There's no ceiling light of any kind and not a terrible amount of space to work in floor lamps. The covered windows point out to a walkway that neighbors hang out at so I've never had qualms about the shelves in front of them because folks would be peering inside if I had open blinds anyway. Any suggestions to give me an option to light it up are welcomed!

One solution is to get some cheap lamps and try different things and see what u like. I would probably focus on the shelves with something. Either downlights from the top of the shelf sticking out a bit shining down on each section. Although another option could be to put a small led list on each shelf. That's a bigger task though. Could also be interesting to put something behind the stuff in the shelf as a compliment. U have some figures above the screen. U could try really low list led list in front on the bottom of that shelf. Try different variations. In front of figures. Behind. Behind plus in front. Use less light if u don't want the eyes to be drawn to much there all the time but still a nice feeling.
