The bathroom

The bathroom is no longer just a utilitarian space; it has evolved into a personal sanctuary where we start and end our days. Good lighting can make all the difference, whether you're soaking in a warm bath after a long day or preparing for a busy morning. Let's explore how you can illuminate your daily routine and indulge in a space that feels truly luxurious.

Good bathroom lighting can transform your bathroom into a personal retreat and requires balancing practical task lighting and soothing all-around light. By thoughtfully selecting fixtures and considering the interplay between light and space, you can create a bathroom that is both functional and beautiful.

 

Primary Lighting

Primary lighting is your bathroom's main lighting source, providing overall illumination that creates a comfortable environment. A rule of thumb is to combine natural and thoroughly designed artificial lighting that can elevate your overall mood and well-being. Choose between ceiling fixtures like chandeliers, flush mounts and recessed lighting, with opal glass shades, for the most optimal primary lighting.

Task Lighting

Task lighting is crucial for bathroom activities like shaving, applying makeup, or styling hair. The goal is to minimize shadows and provide clear visibility around the mirror and sink area. Consider wall lamps or vertical lights with opal glass shades flanking the mirror to offer balanced illumination, reducing shadows and glare on your face.

Mood-creating Lighting

Mood-creating lighting adds depth and dimension, highlighting decor and architectural features. Use dimmable and decorative wall lamps to showcase your bathroom's unique elements and to set the vibe according to your mood and needs.
