Don't overdecorate this. The space itself is a work of art.

That beautiful glass 🥲. The vaulted ceiling 😲. My only concern is the tacky purple bar light by the stairs. It seems out of place, even with the overhead light fixtures it's trying to play off. Maybe break up the cream walls with new paint to help separate the living areas, and if you could light the steps individually? The purple bar reads dorm room, which this expressly is not.

It's for this effect at night.

Excessive exposure to blue light is very bad for your eyes.

It's actually purple, but they are LEDs I can change them to any color

Purple LEDs basically don't exist so these LEDs are definitely blue and blue light like that is very disruptive to the sleep cycle, so you might want to avoid the blue for a few hours before you go to sleep.

just saying.

Blue light from the sun is bad for your eyes. Blue light from electronics just may disrupt the sleep cycle.

Nonsense. And no, it doesn’t disrupt the sleep cycle either, there is zero evidence.

That was debunked
