An incandescent light bulb, incandescent lamp or incandescent light globe is an electric light with a wire heated to such a high temperature that it glows with visible light (incandescence).

The filament, heated by passing an electric current through it, is protected from oxidation with a glass or quartz bulb that is filled with inert gas or evacuated.

In a halogen lamp, filament evaporation is prevented by a chemical process that redeposits metal vapor onto the filament, extending its life.

The light bulb is supplied with electric current by feed-through terminals or wires embedded in the glass.

Most bulbs are used in a socket which provides mechanical support and electrical connections.

Thomas Alva Edison (February 11, 1847 – October 18, 1931) was an American inventor and businessman, who has been described as America's greatest inventor.

He developed many devices that greatly influenced life around the world, including the phonograph, the motion picture camera, and the long-lasting, practical electric light bulb.

Dubbed "The Wizard of Menlo Park", he was one of the first inventors to apply the principles of mass production and large-scale teamwork to the process of invention, and because of that, he is often credited with the creation of the first industrial research laboratory.

A candle is an ignitable wick embedded in wax or another flammable solid substance such as tallow that provides light, and in some cases, a fragrance.

It can also be used to provide heat, or used as a method of keeping time.

Interior design is the art and science of enhancing the interiors, sometimes including the exterior, of a space or building, to achieve a healthier and more aesthetically pleasing environment for the end user.

An interior designer is someone who plans, researches, coordinates, and manages such projects.

Interior design is a multifaceted profession that includes conceptual development, space planning, site inspections, programming, research, communicating with the stakeholders of a project, construction management, and execution of the design.

A light-emitting diode (LED) is a two-lead semiconductor light source.

It is a p–n junction diode, which emits light when activated.

When a suitable voltage is applied to the leads, electrons are able to recombine with electron holes within the device, releasing energy in the form of photons.

This effect is called electroluminescence, and the color of the light (corresponding to the energy of the photon) is determined by the energy band gap of the semiconductor.

LEDs are typically small (less than 1 mm2) and integrated optical components may be used to shape the radiation pattern.
