An excellent solution is lighting, which will be located in the niches of the walls. The basic rule for lighting the middle zone: the flow should be directed away from you so that the one who is in the bathroom does not experience discomfort.

LED Strip Is Your Best Solution

A sealed LED strip can simply be placed below the contour of the bathroom sink and the bathroom. After such a procedure, it seems that they are floating in the air, in addition, it will be better to see where to step.

In order to highlight the floor, you can use several options. If you make grooves, then you can put duralight in them, and close the space from above with glass or a plastic overlay. There is another option – sealed recessed fixtures.

An interesting option would be LED dots, which are located along with ceiling lights. The color of the glow can be chosen differently from the main one to get a nice combination.

Some fixtures can be installed directly on the bottom of a hot tub, tub, or shower. When you lie in such conditions, the sensations are indescribable.

Use circuit breakers and LED strips in lockers. It will work when the door is open. Duralight can be fixed along the rim of the bottom of the furniture, which will bring its own special flavour.

Note that if you want to expand the space, use a white glow. If you would like to emphasize airiness, then blue or blue will do. In order not to experience oppression, use less red light.

Some Installation Tips

There is nothing complicated about making this kind of backlighting with your own hands. To do this, just follow a few simple steps:

  1. Plan before finishing. Think carefully about where all the niches will be located, because after that it is very difficult to make them.
  2. Purchase items with moisture protection.
  3. It is good if the devices will function through a step-down transformer.
  4. All connecting nodes must be well insulated.
  5. The best option is if you provide a separate machine with RCD for the bathroom.
  6. Locate the step-down transformer in an adjacent room so that moisture does not damage it.
  7. Use fantasy.

Many construction delights want to be emphasized. Only this can explain the popularity of such a decorative element as lighting. Contour lighting is rarely used as the main lighting of a room. Its function is to create some kind of illusion. For example, using the backlight, you can change the intensity and colour of the lighting.
