Whats the best way to light a bath or powder room?
A – Most of us want to see a clear reflection in our bathroom or powder room mirrors so we can apply makeup properly or shave without cutting ourselves or simply brush our teeth correctly. To avoid shadows, and to fully surround your face with flattering light, install a fixture at least 24″ wide over the mirror, plus two wall sconces (one on each side of the mirror) at least 28″ apart, and 60″ above the floor. If you have a double sink vanity, use a light that is almost as wide as the mirror. The light should be mounted 78″ from the floor, centered over the mirror.
