What type of lighting do you have in your bathroom? If you aren’t sure off the top of your head then it’s time you think about enhancing your bathroom lighting design. Lighting can change the entire feel of a room. A bathroom is a room where the lighting is absolutely crucial. You need to see yourself well when looking in the mirror and you need to be able to set the mood when you’re having a relaxing bubble bath. Take a look at these suggestions for bringing style to your bathroom lighting to get some inspiration!
Chandelier in the bathroom? Why not?! Installing a chandelier in your bathroom can add a huge amount of style and drama. Imagine taking a bath with a chandelier and you’ll start to see the advantages. If you’re looking for a more practical solution then consider backlighting your mirror. It can be invaluable for times when you need to look closely at your face. For instance, while applying makeup or for making sure you didn’t miss a spot while shaving your neck. For a spin on a more traditional look you can hang the vanity lighting from the ceiling in front of the mirror rather than having sconces on either side of the mirror or the classic bank of bulbs on top. You can also consider stylish ways to use track lighting to make your bathroom feel more like an art gallery!
If your bathroom allows it then you should try to capture natural light and use it to your advantage. Using metallic paint or metallic accents can help make your bathroom bathe in golden light. If you’re feeling really radical then you should consider using unorthodox lights. Always loved the way film and theater lights look? Use them in place of standard sconces and your bathroom will instantly ooze with style. For a more rustic or steampunk look you can attach lights to exposed piping. Bonus points for using Edison bulbs!
These are just a few of the many ways you can be using lights to create a unique and beautiful bathroom. Take a look at the full article below for pictures and examples!
