Lighting In A Bathroom

Design Essentials 

Lighting is literally the life blood of a design. It can make a design shine (pardon the pun!) as it has the power to enhance and elevate the overall aesthetic. Interior Design is all about making the absolute best of every space. Unfortunately, bathrooms can oftentimes be sadly overlooked when it comes to lighting.  This is a huge shame as the right lighting in a bathroom can transform it from a utilitarian space to a luxurious oasis.

This bathroom was designed for a gorgeous town house Interior Design in Mayfair.  It needed to work within the more traditional design of the house, but with a slightly more contemporary feel.  We needed to replicate the original cornice that we had retained throughout the rest of the property. While still present on the other four floors of the house, unfortunately, during a 1970s renovation, this had been removed from these two levels.

Contemporary Bathroom Lighting

However, we wanted to create more of a feature with the cornice and lighting on the newly renovated floors.  During this stage, the bathroom is normally abandoned at this point and we are left with the normal spot lighting.  We wanted the bathroom to be just as gorgeous as the rest of the property. As such, we also used the beautiful cornice lighting within both bathrooms.

As you can see it makes quite an effect! The blue LED strip lighting immediately makes the room feel like is it is literally charging with energy.

It can be a much more subtle effect when using a bright white LED light, as you can see below. The entire shower room glow, but is less “in your face” and more subtle.

We realise that the LED blue lighting may not be for everyone but it exactly fulfilled our clients brief. Interior Design is always about the finished project and we were ecstatic to see the look on our clients faces when they saw the bathrooms that we had created for them.
