Consider these tips for using vanity lighting.
Bathroom lighting necessitates more design savvy than meets the eye. Depending on the size of the bathroom, illumination for the room, the vanity, and the shower or bathtub will be required. Regarding the vanity, appropriate lighting is needed for grooming and washing up. As always, it helps to start by reviewing the different types of bathroom vanity lights in our Kenwood Kitchens galleries. Here are some other vanity lighting options for your master bathroom.
Bath Bar Lighting
A cylindrical lamp or a row of lights is used for bath bar lighting. Bath bar lighting with individual lights can offer uplighting, downlighting, or general lighting. It would be best to have the lighting the same width as your vanity. Consider installing two sets of bath bar lights if you have two sinks.
Sconces
The wall sconce is another standard option. A wall sconce can be placed on either side of the mirror and in the top center. Experts recommend installing the side sconces at eye level, about 65 inches from the floor.
Recessed Lighting
One could also forego light fixtures for basic yet functional recessed lights. This is a good option if you are limited in space.
Pendant Lighting
Some people use pendant lights in creative ways. Pendant lights can either overlap or sit to the sides of the mirror. Some have three pendants, some two, and others have just one pendant.
Utilize A Matching Finish For Your Bathroom
It is recommended that you coordinate the metal finish of the lighting with the other bathroom fittings. Numerous options are available, including chrome, brass, nickel, gold, bronze, white, and black. However, if done correctly, several metal finishes can be used.
