Does this light make my hall look dark?
Comments (6)Ravencajun, I did that in my laundry room and it's such a cheerier room, so you're right. I'll consider that! Linelle, I had 3 solatubes in our last house --in the upstairs landing, above the stairwell, and in the windowless bath -- and loved them! We didn't have to turn on the lights until 5 in winter, and 8:30 in summer, whereas before the light was on almost all the time. Not sure I can get DH to spend on them here; the only reason he will agree to a new light fixture is that the bulbs keep going out too fast on the current one. My3dogs, thank you for the picture. Yes, that is pretty similar to the one I'm considering, I think it's the same manufacturer. I'm glad it provides plenty of light, so now I feel reassured that it will be just fine, especially since mine allows for 3 bulbs, compared to your 2....See MoreBest light fixtures for luxurious hallway

Comments (9)This was originally a lake cabin (1966) about 850 sf. According to tax records it slowly "grew" until it is now about 3500 sf. They did not remove old roofs as they enlarged the house. This bathroom is part of the oldest section of the house. That means a roof over a roof..so no way to put in a skylight. I am not happy about it, but nothing I can do. The bar fixtures we just removed made it bright enough, but they were old. 5 bulbs on one wall and 4 bulbs on the other. I think if I buy lights that can take 100 watt bulbs, and if I have two lights on each side of the mirror or 4 above the mirror, then it should be enough. I hope. I haven't seen any lights that take 100 watt bulbs lately though or led equivalent of 100 watt. Maybe with the incandescent bulb issues a few years ago, they quit making those 100 watt fixtures? So, in a couple of years, we plan to sell the house, so I want nice looking lights, but not expensive lights. Something classic, not trendy. I am spending a small fortune on a solid surface shower, stone countertops, and custom cabinets. We gutted everything but the ceiling, and that popcorn junk will be removed. We are going to try to save the marble floor. It should work well. Black marble floor with white veins, either white or light gray swirl for shower base, either subway tile or solid surface walls, light gray quartzite or marble countertops, and medium oak cabinets. Paint color will be last, but I need to preplan for the lights' location to have it wired correctly before we put up sheetrock. Will I get more illumination if I put two lights on either side of the mirror vs above the mirror? Thanks...See MoreLIGHTING HELP! 24ft Vault over kitchen & pantry/powder room/hallway.
Comments (2)Build that out as another upstairs room. Pot lights are completely useless at 24’. Track lighting, lamps, and giant pendants like you’d find at city hall or a church are the only options. The whole thing is much to tall for actual functionality. Cut it in half and it’s still over height. It’s a big fat F for the architect. Vaults that bisect areas are another F....See MoreCarolina Kitchen & Bath
