Bathroom Lights

Bathroom lighting faces specific demands around moisture, task illumination and flattering everyday use, and our bathroom light range meets them with IP-rated fixtures across ceiling, wall and vanity formats. Designs span minimalist flush fittings, architectural bar lights above basins, and statement pendants for larger bathrooms. Every fixture is rated for the appropriate bathroom zone.

Bathroom lighting is regulated by zone, with fixtures near the bath or shower needing IP65 or higher, and general ceiling fixtures typically needing IP44. Mirror and basin lights also need IP44. The product page lists the IP rating; an electrician should confirm the correct zone for each position.

Vanity lights work best either side of the mirror at eye level, which provides even front-facing light without casting shadows on the face. Lights above the mirror alone can create unflattering shadows under the eyes and chin. A combination of vanity and ambient ceiling lighting gives the most flexibility.

Pendant lighting works in bathrooms with suitable IP-rated fittings and adequate ceiling height, typically above freestanding baths or in the centre of larger rooms. The pendant should sit outside Zone 1 (directly above the bath) unless specifically rated for that zone. An electrician's sign-off is essential.

Warm white (2700 to 3000K) flatters skin tones and suits the mood most users want in a bathroom. Cooler temperatures (above 3500K) can feel clinical for bathing but might suit detailed grooming tasks. Dim-to-warm LEDs offer both ranges from a single fixture.
