The lighting in your bathroom needs to be both functional and atmospheric. Task lighting
is important near your mirrors for obvious reasons. The most successful way to achieve this
is by lighting from both sides so that the face is illuminated evenly.
All lighting used must be specifically designed for the bathroom. Check that the IP rating
of the fittings is appropriate for the area in which it is intended.
Don’t forget to adequately light the shower area. Think about feature lighting to create
atmosphere. You could put recessed lights into alcoves, maybe use colour changing LEDs behind an opaque bath panel, uplight behind the bath with uplighters.
The lighting should be controlled on at least two different switches and dimmable. It is also an idea to use a preset system so that the mood changes instantly, providing
different settings for day, evening and late at night.
