For some reason, it is common to think that different lighting scenarios should be provided exclusively for the living room.

This myth is hastened to be destroyed by the expert of the online publication “BelNovosti”, designer Yulia Tychino , who reminds that this “option” is also relevant for the bathroom.

The brightest light here should be located next to the sink.

The reason is obvious – this is the place where the main cosmetic procedures take place.

Make sure the light illuminates your face but is not directed directly into your eyes.

An additional lamp can be placed next to the bathtub, which will be used for additional lighting during hygiene procedures.

It also works well as a backlight if you enjoy spa nights or reading in a warm bubble bath.

Another important point is the color temperature of the lamps used.

The higher the color temperature, the colder the light and the more the room resembles a hospital ward.

In this regard, the expert recommends choosing lamps with a color temperature of no more than 3000 K.

Earlier we talked about which wardrobe – swing or sliding – is better to choose.
