Re: Where to put lights?

["Neil Fuller" <neil@xxxxxxx>]

Just some thoughts . . ..

Personally, I'd either out them in two lines or deliberately 'scatter' them
so they don't look as though you tried to put them in a nice pattern but
failed :-)

You need to move 4 closer to the R wall - you'll get a harsh shadow
otherwise.

5 needs to be suitable for above shower mounting  (IP 65 or whatever it
is!!)

Depending on the lamp wattage and beam angles, you could probably get away
with 4 or maybe even 2. I have a similar sized bathroom and have 2 x 50w,
35 Deg and they are _more_ than bright enough.

As I said, just some thoughts . . . ..

I'm hopefully putting some lv halogens in the bathroom, B&Q have these

which look pretty good value to me.

How would I go about placing those in a bathroom that looks like this

Not to scale or owt like that.

S = Sink (or wash basin for you southerners), not shower. The shower is
against the same wall as the window, in the bath.

I was thinking about putting them where the numbers are on the diagram
(roughly) above ... any comments?
