White Bathroom + Vanity Lights

White Bathroom Vanity

For a bright and clean look in a new bathroom or an existing bathroom’s remodel, consider the addition of white vanity lights. White is always a nice choice for interior design as it reflects natural sunlight. White is a naturally preferred choice for interior design as it naturally reflects light around it and mimics the appealing brightness of the sun. A white look will open the space and create an inviting look that is appealing to friends and family alike.

Vanity lights mount to the wall near a mirror, typically above the mirror but can also be along the side. This type of light will contain an LED or incandescent bulb within, hiding inside a shade such as a glass or metal tube. The shape ensures a full glow in the room, meaning all grooming and bathroom activities can be done with ease, and the small stature of the diode allows for more creative designs where a large bulb may hinder creative flow.

Other Considerations

When adding white light fixtures, try to match each fixture with the same white tone, as even lighter shades of gray can stand out to the human eye and clash with the décor of the room. The most common additions to the bathroom will be wall sconces and ceiling lights such as pendants or flush mounts. These ceiling lights bring a layer of illumination into the room, while wall sconces bring an accent light that may reach part of the bathroom the ceiling lights and vanity light cannot reach. Keep in mind, another name for white vanity lights is a white bath bar.

As with any choice of white light fixtures, measure the dimensions of the piece and the room it is going into before purchasing. Even if the layers of light in the room will be full and appealing, and even if the color scheme matches and creates a satisfying style in the room, the size of the fixture can clash if it is not correct. A fixture that is too large or too small will interrupt the sense of flow in the room, negating the benefits of the correct color scheme and even lighting display. In this way, the size, color and style are all equally important to creating an appealing living space.
