The home office needs a good general light source. For energy efficiency, try a color-improved warm fluorescent in a ceiling fixture .
Warm fluorescents reduce the bluish cast of the light produced by fluorescent bulbs.
Light the wall behind the computer to reduce eyestrain. To avoid glare, position the computer screen away from windows or ceiling fixtures. If your home office includes a comfortable chair for reading, use a floor lamp with a 3-way bulb to provide an appropriate level of light.
