Lighting by room

Bedroom lighting

In a bedroom the light should help you wind down: a warm, gentle light that can be dimmed in the evening works best. For reading in bed you need a separate luminaire, so you do not have to switch on the ceiling light. Below are our recommendations and luminaires from the catalogue that give a warm light.

Recommended lighting

Light level
50–150 lx
For general light a modest brightness is enough. Reading in bed needs separate light of around 150–300 lx.
Colour temperature
2700–3000 K
Warm 2700–3000 K light tires the eyes less in the evening than cooler, bluer light.

How to plan the light

  1. General lighting A ceiling or pendant luminaire, ideally dimmable, suits the morning and getting dressed; in the evening it can be dimmed.
  2. Task lighting A directional wall or table luminaire by the bed is for reading: the light should fall on the book, not into your partner’s eyes.
  3. Accent lighting Soft light in a niche, behind the headboard or from a wall light creates a calming mood.

Frequently asked questions

What colour temperature suits a bedroom?

Warm white of 2700–3000 K is usually recommended. It tires the eyes less in the evening than cooler, bluer light.

How much light does a bedroom need?

For general bedroom light around 50–150 lx is usually enough. For reading in bed a separate, brighter light of roughly 150–300 lx is recommended, so you do not need to switch on the whole room.

Which luminaire is best for reading in bed?

A directional wall or table luminaire with warm light, aimed so that it falls on the book rather than into your eyes. It helps if the head of the luminaire can be turned.

Is it worth choosing dimmable luminaires for a bedroom?

Yes, because the brightness can be lowered in the evening. Only luminaires whose description states dimming can be dimmed, and only with a suitable dimmer.
