Designing Your Bathroom Lighting
The lighting in your bathroom is probably more important than any other room in the house because generally it’s nearly all man-made lighting and not so much natural lighting. You can make your bathroom a very relaxing place to be and the way to do this is by the
bathroom lighting. Not only can you improve your bathroom with the lighting so you can enjoy the benefits but it’s a great selling point if you decide to move house.
When it comes to bathroom lighting you can choose a few different types of lighting fixtures. For example the bathroom is a task heavy area such as putting on your make up or getting ready, shaving etc and so choose a ceiling light that gives off a lot of light such as spot lights or a clear glass semi flush light. This is the foundation light of your
bathroom lighting, it gives you the bulk of the light and so you can have other pieces of accent lighting around the room as well.
Mirrored bathroom lighting is superb for giving a chic and modern look while still being practical. The extra use of bathroom lighting will help with tasks, and it gives the option of turning off the main ceiling lights and just using the mirrored bathroom lights. This type of bathroom lighting will give a different effect on the room and thus a different mood. If you want to relax in the bath for an hour or so you can turn off the main bathroom lighting and have the mirrored lights on instead.
Another great
bathroom lighting idea is a shower light. Taking a shower in your cubicle or shower space can sometimes be a little dark depending on how your lighting is set up but placing a shower light above the cubicle illuminates the area and opens up the bathroom giving it more depth.
