Avoid placing task lighting above the mirror unless you use vanity lights (see next paragraph). Just using task lights above your head can cast deep shadows below your eyes, nose and chin and change the look of your face. Wall lights can use either task lighting or ambient lighting. If your task lighting consists of downlights in the ceiling, you can use the wall lights as an ambient alternative. You could set up a light switch to change between the two: task lights in the ceiling for general use and ambient wall lights for a relaxing bath.

Zone 2, is the area stretching 0.6m outside the perimeter of the bath and to a height of 2.25m from the floor. In this zone an IP rating of at least IP44 is required. In addition it is good practice to consider the area around a wash basin, within a 60cm radius of any tap to be considered as zone 2. Higher Kelvins are designed to illuminate the room in the whitest way possible, which is better for attention to detail and staying alert, making these colours more appropriate task lighting.Ensure that there is adequate lighting at twin basins and vanity units by installing extra wall lights, either side of each mirror, to cover the full width of the area. Neat column wall lights won’t protrude into the space too much and will cast light evenly up and down the face. Varying the lighting types in your bathroom is incredibly important. Emile Azan says “I would suggest that you consider having different levels of lighting. Then, if you’re taking a late-night trip to the bathroom, you can turn on the low level lighting without waking up others – or yourself – too much!” Shower cubicles and walk-in showers will generally need some form of additional lighting to supplement the main lighting source. This could be ceiling spots or indirect lighting set into the walls lower down.
