Answer

The best color temperature for living room LED accent lighting is between two thousand seven hundred and three thousand kelvin, creating a warm, inviting ambient glow. This warm base light helps prevent eye strain and makes colors appear natural, especially when showcasing collections. Using cooler or saturated lighting like blue or magenta can cause discomfort. Pair warm ambient light with dimmable accents for flexibility. Always ensure your LED lights are high-CRI and flicker-free to maintain color accuracy and visual comfort throughout the living room.
