Ambient lighting in the bathroom
The first thing to consider is the room’s ambient lighting. The ceiling is usually where you’ll start when planning your bathroom lighting. Ceiling lights offer the advantage of providing light evenly over a large area, and are quick and easy to switch on and off. This minimises the risk of accidents in the bathroom. Your ambient lighting should therefore be designed to cover a large area. A multitude of recessed lights and spotlights will also ensure that the entire bathroom is well lit. The larger the room, the more important it is to design consistent ambient lighting that can be controlled with just one or two switches.
