This floating panel of light in a model kitchen at GE's Residence Lighting Center shows how lighting can be an architectural de- sign element as well as a functional fixture. Another unique feature in this kitchen is the back wall. A panel of fluorescent lamps been placed behind draperies to make an ordi- nary solid wall look like windows -- providing a spacious feeling for the room. Fluorescent lamps over the counter and at the top of the cabinets com- plete the lighting design. Beauty Of Niagara Falls Accented By Niagara Falls at night is just water, until its dramatic beauty is accented when the floodlights are turned on. In a similar way, spot and floodlighting can bring out the beauty of your home. A special painting or sculpture, even a brick fireplace can show un- expected beauty in the light of a reflector bulb. Lighting specialists from Can- adian General Electric recom- mend the 75 watt reflector bulb for your home as this bulb is small enough to be mounted in simple recessed fixtures. Over sculpture or paintings, aim downlights so they graze the artwork, but do not swallow it up in a glare of light. Use a spotlight to dramatize your fireplace and have one aimed to feature the decorative fireplace equipment. Give your draperies new in- terest by showing their light and shade with 150 watt floodlights in recessed units. Be careful to use these lights only when the drapes are closed and so avoid direct glare to the outside. Flood and spotlights come in color for your home and can make exciting and unique ef- fects. Equal numbers of pink, blue - white and yellow bulbs make a general effect like white light, but it is far more stimu- lating. The Tri-Lite bulb is an excel- lent way of providing different levels of lighting; low for re- laxation or entertainment or watching TV; high for reading or sewing. An even more flexible way is with a dimming system. With the turn of a dial, you can adjust the level of the lighting for a whole area. The exterior of your home can be highlighted by the use of 75 or 150 watt PAR lamps.

It's wainscotting, or half-wall paneling. : This technique of paneling the lower half of the walls (to about chairtop height) can be found in many old homes -- particularly in the dining room -- but it is equally adapt- able to contemporary houses. In living rooms and bed- rooms, it blends beautifully with high-style decor. In heavy traffic areas like the halls or stairways, it gives effective wall protection. With an easy- to - install woodgrain paneling like hardboard, wainscotting is a fairly simple remodeling pro- ject. The 4 - by - 8 - foot sheets in which the paneling comes can be cut to wainscot height by sawing the panels across the middle to form 4-by-4 sheets. This is for installing wains- cotting on a regular wall. You'll Paneling Of Lower Walls Creates An Elegant Look have to trim to size if you are installing the paneling on the wall of a stairwell, To install, use a special ads hesive that will cement the paneling firmly to most wall surfaces. Or -nail it te furring strips attached to the existing wall. You can get panels prefinish« ed in a variety of good-looking woodgrain, patterned or tex- tured surfaces, with matching moldings, nails and putty. If you prefer to do the finishing yourself, get unfinished hard- board which requires no sand- ing before paint, varnish, stain or shellac is applied. The job is completed with a molding across the top of the wainscot- ting and a baseboard at the bottom. Here are some areas in which wainscotting will look good and wear well: Kitchens and Baths -- simu lated tile or pastel colored pan- eling with a plastic finish is most appropriate. The finish resists heat, moisture and dirt and can be damp-washed clean, me ADDED CONVENIENCE for your Family and Guests We'll be happy to plan a CRANE.
