Rules and options for the location of lamps
Not every bathroom can boast of having a window. Therefore, lighting design is of great importance for the room. It is better to use combined lighting - when, in addition to the central light source, lamps are installed near mirror surfaces or in other areas. The rules for choosing sconce models must take into account the stylistic design of the room, since in addition to the main function - lighting, lamps are important interior details. Depending on the location area, choose the appropriate type of lamp.
The mirror surface located above the washbasin needs sufficient and uniform illumination, so light sources are placed around the perimeter of the glass or symmetrically on different sides. A non-standard design solution would be to install lighting behind the plane of the glass sheet - you get the feeling that the product is floating in the air. New are mirrors with illuminated frames. This lighting option looks good against the background of the dark decoration of the room.
It is advisable to mount the sconce near the top of the mirror. It is better to choose frosted glass lampshades - this creates diffused light that does not form a shadow on the face.
Quite a large number of furniture sets with a mirror (model with a shelf, mirror cabinet) are equipped with lamps. When choosing a suitable product, it is advisable to immediately check the lighting area and the ability to adjust the angle of incidence of the light.
