The right color temperature is not just about the room. It is about what you do there.
Warm 2700K light can help a living room feel calm at the end of the day. Clearer 3000K to 4000K light supports cooking and food preparation. At the bathroom vanity, 3000K to 3500K can offer a balanced, flattering view for getting ready.
These ranges are a starting point. The best choice also depends on your finishes, fixtures and personal preference.
