If you were to ask a group of ten people, what their favourite room in the house is, chances are that eight out of ten would say it is their bathroom. However, we often just focus on the aesthetics of the bathroom and neglect the importance of the right kind of lighting here, which is an important factor in how the bathroom looks and feels when occupied. There are two types of lighting required in the bath—task lighting and ambient or accent lighting. A thoughtful combination of task, ambient, and accent lighting, in addition to any natural light from windows or skylights, is the best way to achieve layers of light. When light is layered, you can change the feeling of your room to match any mood.
