Bathroom Lighting Design Basics

An attempt at a beautiful bathroom is only as effective as the accompanying lighting to compliment the layout and design features. If you don’t plan the lighting properly, you’ll end up with shadows and glare that could potentially destroy the atmosphere.

It is true that a bathroom needs to be bright as we perform a lot of intricate activities there. Grooming is a task that requires clear visibility, but you need to keep in mind that you don’t only use your bathroom to get yourself clean and presentable. The bathroom is also a place to relax and take some time for yourself. For that, you need a less bright and more relaxed atmosphere.

By layering your lighting and making use of more than one light source, you will end up with a bathroom lighting design that will match your specific needs at a specific time, whether it’s getting ready for work and needing a lot of light, or hiding away for a bit with a glass of wine and a good book.
