When you want to lighten the bathroom, it is important to combine different spaces. The bathroom is a space where we need the clarity of cold light and the warmth of calmer colors. For example, bathroom areas or bathtubs are areas for relaxation where comfort and relaxation should prevail.
Stay with Chique Lighting.
What main lighting source is used in the bathroom?
Normally, in the bathroom, it is very common to use the main light source for the entire square meter. It is recommended to replace this individual lighting source with several sources of lower wattage distributed in necessary places.
LED lamps can be placed on mirrors (always with IP65 protection required). It is recommended to install directional light sources of around 7 watts so that the light can be directed to the desired points.
LED strip lights are an indirect light source
LED strip lights are ideal for indirect lighting because they allow for more flexibility when it comes to installation. There are many places they can be installed, for example, an attractive and very useful way to use LED strips is to place them behind bathroom mirrors. Therefore, lighting can act as a decorative element. Another very frequent use is placing LED strips around the bathroom or on the bottom of the bathroom furniture. So we have an indirect light source that we can use when what we want to do does not depend on a strong light source.
For this purpose, both 24/12 VDC strips and 220 VAC strips can be used. Our professional advice is to use the first ones because working at low voltage avoids possible serious accidents. LED wall lamps, an excellent collection of aesthetics and lighting, LED fittings are an innovative idea that combines two very important features. , aesthetics and lighting provide a unique style to our bathroom design as well as lighting.
First, the fittings that are usually placed in bathrooms are small and match the installed furniture. You can find many designs and colors that can match our basic bathroom design.
The second is perhaps the most important. This type of wall lamp is usually installed in places where an additional light source is needed and is used at certain times when we do more detailed work. This place is usually near mirrors or closets where we need that extra light.

Who said we can't have lighting in the shower?
The introduction of LED technology has developed many products that can help us play with lighting. In this case, the combination of electricity and light may seem dangerous, but nothing is further from the truth. A combination of LED strips with IP68 protection (immersion in water) and shower can help us to create a more relaxing atmosphere while taking a shower. In addition, by replacing these types of strips with RGB , we can combine the advantages of color therapy and LED lighting.
If you want to install LED strips in the bathroom, you must meet two conditions: they must be IP68 and work with a voltage of 12 VDC. The first is common sense because of the bad relationship between electricity and water. The second case is related to the first case and is related to the recommended tension in wet work areas, such as bathrooms. It is highly advisable to work with low voltage electrical installations in order to prevent accidents.
