Lamps are frequently blamed for disappointing lighting effects, whereas the result is often due to the dark surroundings of the room. As much as 80 per cent. of the light falling on the dark walls and ceilings may be absorbed. Bracket lighting with dark wall surfaces is the most costly method of lighting.
