What Is Better Warm White or Cool White? I have this ongoing argument with my plumber 😂 I like to use warm white lights, and he says they’re dated and likes to use cool white lights. So what’s the difference? Well, warm white lighting is one of the most popular around the home, especially in living areas or where you want to create a homely, inviting and relaxing atmosphere. Warm white lights have an orangey-yellow tinge to them. The best place to use warm white bulbs is anywhere you spend a lot of time relaxing and unwinding around the home, such as bedrooms, living rooms, dining rooms, conservatories and even in the garden as summer lights. Warm white lightbulbs are also great in table lamps and bedside lamps. We use them everywhere! On the other hand, cool white lighting gives off a brighter, more vibrant light that’s more toward the blue end of the colour spectrum. They appear closer to daylight than a warm white bulb. They’re best suited for the busier and more lively areas...
