Product Information

If it is not our intention to paint the niche of a different color from the rest of the room, you can play alternatively with the light color of the spotlight. In this example we see that the color of the light has been designed in conjunction with that of the sofa. I would also like to point out here that the color of light is used to highlight especially white objects within a niche very clear, that objects in the absence of colored light would pass completely unnoticed. Accent lighting adds depth and interest. You can use this type of lighting design to highlight the decorative elements in your bathroom. For instance, you can highlight the bathroom tile or artwork to enhance the overall atmosphere.

Recessed downlights in the bathroom ceiling are excellent for general lighting purposes, since they may be positioned to provide the task lighting over sinks and showers too. Where the ceiling construction does not allow their use, surface spotlights are a good alternative. The lighting of a niche with a spotlight from above is also appropriate in most contexts, historical or rustic, as it can be a wine cellar. In this case, the spotlight illuminates a bottle of wine, which would be a bit strange and excessive in a living room, but, if done in the place designated to the aging of wines, it helps to highlight the main function of the room and introduce us in its atmosphere as soon as we access it. The attention is focused on the wine and its aging through lighting. Our single colour or colour changeable LED Plinth Lights around the bath or shower. They are IP rated and are made of 304 Stainless Steel making them suitable in wet areas, they will not rust! The bathroom's hard and reflective surfaces encourage tremendous creativity. Consider fitting decorative wall lights at a low level to wash their light across the floor, or to highlight features like a freestanding bath. Alternatively, recess uplights into the floor itself to throw light up the walls instead of down them. Recessed lights are best for use in showers, but you need to be careful to buy ones that are designed for use in wet and damp environments. The fact that they are recessed means they are flush to the ceiling, which ensures that damp does not build up and attract mould. What's more, they are easy to wipe over and keep clean.

We recommend a 2 Gang Light switch outside the bathroom, one switch is for the main lights and the other for the auxiliary lights. We have "Glass Touch Switches": /prod_cat/C_touch-control-switches-and-dimmers_85.shtml for an ultra modern look. Switch on the lights automatically when someone enters the bathroom. On the aesthetic side, lighting can enhance the overall design and ambiance of the bathroom. Strategically placed lights can highlight the niche as a focal point, adding visual interest to the space. It's a way to integrate both form and function in bathroom design, creating a more stylish and inviting environment. For the best illumination, you can place LED strip lights below bathroom counters and cabinets. You can do that inside drawers, as well. An added advantage is these lights can help you in navigating your bathroom safely at night without switching on harsher lights. What Is the Best Bathroom Lighting for Applying Makeup? Heat emission is also a huge safety factor in bathroom lighting. Halogen lights reach high temperatures, and inside a bathroom, they are dangerous. They can cause burns if touched accidentally. But since LEDs emit less heat, they are relatively cool to the touch. For an even brighter light our Splash Proof Single Colour Constant Current Silicone LED Strip or the Colour Changeable Silicone LED Strip is ideal for lighting ceiling voids, recesses, and alcoves.

Alcoves don’t need to be an unloved awkward part of your home that you don’t know what to do with. There are lots of options to turn them into clever, unique spaces, from a reading corner, to a home office, to a kitchen pantry. However, how far you go with your alcove ideas, depends on your needs budget and which room it is in. A different way to do this would be placing lights near the windows, bathtub, showering area, and above or below the mirror. Also, instead of using one light, you can use multiple lights. Make your bathroom stand out by trying to emphasize every tiny detail. 4. Energy Efficiency By switching on the mood lights alone it creates a low-level light in the bathroom, meaning you won't be blinded early in the morning when needing to use the facilities. Surface ceiling lights for the bathroom, IP rated against the effects of water intake and suited for installation in bathroom zones 1 and 2.Our PIR Motion Sensor wired between the Auxiliary Light switch and the Transformer for the LED Lights will allow the lights to switch on automatically when someone enters the bathroom, and off again after a preset time of no motion being detected. Use the 2 Gang Wall switch as usual, the Mood Light switch can then be used to override the motion sensor. If within the niche we plan to place one very large object, lighting spotlights a design solution may be a bit weak. We can then organize a more homogeneous illumination over the entire width of the niche: a sort of waterfall of light coming from above. Sometimes this type of lighting is done with equipment that does not meet all the aesthetic point of view, but you can still find a solution hiding the light source and build it in the wall so you can see the light but not its source. Our 20mm Plinth Lights offer an economical way to light alcoves and niches, available in single colour or colour changeable.
