Buyers Guide to Choosing Bathroom Lighting
Not very long ago, people used to allocate a small corner of their home-under-construction for bathroom construction, because well, who stayed in longer than twenty minutes? But now the times have changed, for good. A bathroom is now much more than a place to go take a quick bath in. It has now been converted into a place where you go relax and enjoy some me time, apart from just serving as a place where youd go in to get done with daily rituals.
So now that we have realized how we can use bath as a nice, cozy space for our own-selves, there is a lot that needs to be taken care of to make the place look like it. In this guide, wed discuss about importance of bathroom lighting, and the types that go well with the space.
Different Type of Bathroom Lighting
To add a wow factor to the bathroom, ensure that there is a play of lights to accentuate different features. Different layers of lighting from multiple sources help add depth to the area, apart from making it all the more functional. A combination of ambient lighting, task lighting, and accent lighting work wonders here.
AMBIENT LIGHTING: Also known as general lighting, this is the primary lighting for the room. It illuminates the room so navigation and reading toiletries labels do not seem impossible.
Ceiling lights like Flush Mount Ceiling Light Fixtures with a dimmer top our choicest list when it comes to ambient lighting for the bath.
TASK LIGHTING: As the name suggests, this lighting is good for areas requiring activity, like makeup and personal grooming around the vanity. Generally people satisfy themselves here with horizontal light fixture over the mirror. However, the better way to do this is to get parallel wall sconces mounted on each side of the mirror. This helps eliminate shadow formation while you are prepping yourself up for a party.
ACCENT LIGHTING: This is more like giving final touches to some place. Accent lighting helps balance out the overall brightness of the room. If the bathroom is quiet spacious and you have wall art placed up there, decorative wall sconces highlighting the piece of art would add to the aesthetic beauty of the place. Or else, you could just play with beautiful lighting fixtures and convert dull-looking corners into a soft and sought-after corner.
While choosing LED fixtures for the bath, pay attention to individual fixtures color temperature (denoted by K) as youd end up expecting different settings form each fixture. Also, ensure these fixtures are wet location or damp location workable.
