Designing with Light in the Bedroom
When lighting a bedroom, you will want to
create an overall atmosphere of quiet relaxation, while providing
some bright spots for reading and other activities. A combination of
general and task lighting that takes into account the age and
lifestyle of the occupant(s) is needed. Remember, dimming controls
give you the flexibility to vary the light to suit different moods
and activities.
General lighting can be provided by ceiling fixtures,
chandeliers, fan lights, recessed downlights, or wall sconces,
giving you the illumination you need to dress and see into drawers
and closets. 
At the dressing table, an adjustable, lighted
magnifying mirror will provide ideal lighting for grooming and
applying makeup.
