Our expert recommends indirect dimmable LED lighting.
Q:
We've just finished our master bathroom. As you can see in the picture we
have provided, the ceiling slopes up toward the center of the ceiling. We
put in 6-inch recessed adjustable fixtures, but the room still feels dark
at night. What can we do to improve the lighting?
A: I noticed in your photo
that you have blackout shades and no mirror over the vanity. Is it possible
that you are a vampire? I'm not judging; just curious. I can see that your
sloped ceiling is shaped like a shallow pyramid. The recessed fixtures are
not doing much other than creating Dark Shadows on your face. They do
nothing to enhance the architectural detail of the ceiling. My
recommendation would be to install a perimeter cantilever or crown molding
detail to hide some indirect dimmable LED lighting. This will create an
overall glow while accentuating the pitched ceiling. The recessed fixtures
can be taken out. The new perimeter lighting, in combination with the
chandelier and the wall sconces above the vanity, will do a good job of
creating a cozy sanctuary where you can sleep until nightfall.
