and answer the questions:
1. Is she going to talk about different interior design styles?
2. What recommendations does she give about:

● overhead light
● clusters of illumination
● light bulbs
● smart lighting
● candles
15
POSSIBLE ANSWERS:
1. Is she going to talk about different interior

design styles?
‘We are going to talk about a few universal
ways that you can make your home cozy no
matter what your current style is.’
16
POSSIBLE ANSWERS:
2. What recommendations does she give about:

‘I would usually say to banish overhead lighting. It's better to focus on having
clusters of illumination. And look at what types of light bulbs you're using. It's better
to opt for warmer light bulbs and stay away from the cooler light bulbs, because
they are going to be used in more office type areas. Warm light bulbs are going to
feel more inviting and cosier. Smart lightning is a great way to set the mood
whenever and however you want. Candles are the ultimate cosy edition to any
room.’
