The spherical shape portrayed the aesthetic, the light on the inside is a nice concept and is practical
This design was closer to the intended goal, featuring the inside light and a short, wide form

Ensures Safety
Sets the Mood
Comfortable Environment
A well lit space is essential for safety, especially in areas like hallways, staircases, and entry ways. So, ambient lighting, creates a comfortable environment where people can move freely.
Ambient lighting influences the mood of a space. Warm toned lighting can make a room feel cozy and inviting, while cool toned lighting can evoke energy and motivation.
Soft, diffused lighting reduces harsh shadows and lines, making a room a more inviting environment. It also can open up a space when dark corners are prevented.
