The use of a counter frame for sliding glass doors, whether plaster or plasterboard walls, can help to direct light from the brightest rooms to the most sheltered ones, distributing the illumination in a balanced way.Also bear in mind the possibility of increasing the level of natural light in any room by using reflective colours (such as white) and large mirrors to amplify the effect.The colour temperature of light also has a significant effect on the functioning of the human body. The unit of colour temperature is expressed in Kelvin (K), and the higher its value the brighter the light. Warm light makes the environment more welcoming and relaxing, while cooler light makes the environment more stimulating: it makes us feel more alert, more focused and can increase productivity levels.
