I'd Agree with mark, but two of the type you can rotate about above the
bedside tables pointed on the wall can look nice.

IMO a bedroom is meant to be cosy, but down light halogens are a bit too
'stark' if you get what i mean?

What's wrong with a 60w bulb anyway :)

Mary hates downlighters in bedrooms. We had them in our room at
UKHA2003 and she found them really problematical.

Personally, in bedrooms, I prefer concealed lighting - as in no
visible luminaires.

Depends on you, your bedroom-partner(s) (delete as appropriate), and
what you think looks good.

Regards,

Mark
