Shower Lights Bathe Bathrooms in Brightness

Shower lighting generally gets little attention compared with lighting in the rest of the house. But don’t make this mistake — even the simplest lights can add such enjoyment and sparkle to your daily routine. The right light can make or break a bathroom, and all too often the subject is given no more thought than an extra downlight and weatherproof trim.


Lighting should be worked out from the very start, since the right lighting systems need to be designed ahead so they can be installed, waterproofed and serviced whenever necessary. Take a look at a few of my favorite shower lighting photos and learn some of the key points you should consider for your shower’s lighting.



Here is a great example of an intense colored light and its effect on the water spray; steam and water come to life with the incorporation of colored lighting. Four LED pool lights installed on the ceiling of this steam shower create this look.


Tip: Red, green and blue light-emitting diodes (LEDs) can be installed to create any combination of colorful or white lights. It’s important to make sure the lights are all installed in the same direction so that the pattern and reflection of red, green and blue is consistent.
