Accent heavy restroom design

Accent heavy restroom design

Rather than traditional overall illumination, this approach uses accent lighting to highlight select features while keeping utilitarian elements in shadow. Creates dramatic, memorable spaces.

Medium Mid-Range
Approach Detail

Use directional spots on artwork or decorative elements. Backlight architectural features (niches, panels). Keep fixtures in shadow. Ensure minimum light for safety (10 fc). Add subtle cove lighting for ambient layer. Let mirrors provide brightest areas.

Key Fixtures

Small recessed adjustables, LED tape for coves, accent spotlights, picture lights
