excessive switches

It’s nice to live in an apartment where you can set the mood with lots of lighting options. And this apartment has a ton; there isn’t a spot that doesn’t have it’s very own light. The most are in the dining and living room (see combined photo above). So many, in fact, every time I want to light up an area in particular (and not one to waste unneeded electricity), I play a game of trying switch after switch before finding the right one. It’s a bit excessive. To illustrate my point and to help myself figure it out once and for all, here is a photo of the switches for just the living and dining room (18) with an added guide.

  1. i think there are far fewer switches in the usa because most of the outlets are always ‘live.’
