Bathroom Lighting

[bathstyle]

Does anyone here know of any new trends in bathroom lighting. Virtually every single customer I do a Quote for simply want boring old spotlights and a Showerlight which IMO now looks very dated and actually the quality of these are very poor

What new products are out there now? what products do you recommend?

Any links would be good

Mirror lights are getting popular.

They now seem to be curving 5/8 glass tubes,
Round tubes are out now and a lot of other shapes like "S" etc should be available soon.

Jeeez, that is cheap, I just paid £500 for a mirror cabinet.

Thanks for the repy, I was thinking more of ceiling lights, something a bit different, better than the usual set up.

Just did a little googling and found this..

there are some alternatives to standard spots and domes.

Thanks....the LED lights look interesting...ish, not sure, nothing stands out.

I like wall lights either side of the mirror above the sink, and a centre light in a similar style.

You can get SELV / IP wall lights easy enough if they fall into the zones.

No more wall lights please

Anything in a ceiling that's unusual, changes colours, incredibly bright, would be great.

LED dance floor mounted on the ceiling?

But . . . . its hideous. And so are the fittings that take these tubes.

Prove me wrong.

There not the ones I meant.
New ones are like a T5 tube but curved to any desired shape, similar to a neon tube or a flat CFL lamp with two ends.
A new range of designer fittings will be out soon using these tubes.

I dont know . . . how are they gonna package that? An S-shaped fluorescent lamp. Answers on a postcard.
