Proper painting of ceilings and walls should be used to give max lighting without what?

• A. Shadows
• B. Heat buildup
• C. Fading
• D. Glare

Answer: (D)

Max lighting comes from how surfaces reflect light. Glossy finishes reflect light in a concentrated, mirror-like way, which creates bright hotspots and glare that can irritate the eyes and reduce perceived clarity. Using a flatter or eggshell finish on ceilings and walls spreads light more diffusely, giving even illumination and reducing glare while still keeping the space bright. Fading, heat buildup, and shadows aren’t the primary issues this painting choice targets for maximizing lighting.
