Recessed ceiling spotlights for the living area

LEDs and recessed spotlights for the ceiling belong in every well-designed home, where they bring your rooms to life as sophisticated lighting. Our recessed ceiling spotlights not only offer outstanding lighting quality, but also impress with their elegant design, which blends seamlessly into any interior design. Rely on maximum safety and durability with our robust models for indoor use - your perfect lighting solution is waiting for you!

Discreet design, great effect: recessed ceiling spotlights in various rooms

You come home in the evening and don't want to search for the light switch in the dark? In a long, narrow corridor, recessed ceiling spotlights provide uniform illumination and pleasant light thanks to their clever arrangement along the corridor. This makes the entire area appear bright and inviting and every guest feels welcome.

Recessed ceiling spotlights installed above the washbasin and mirror provide a warm light for the morning routine. The targeted light ensures optimum illumination without distracting shadows - ideal for applying make-up or shaving in the bathroom.

In the kitchen , recessed ceiling spotlights can be installed specifically above work surfaces such as the kitchen island or sink. They provide you with bright, focussed light that facilitates food preparation and at the same time creates a cosy atmosphere when you are cooking with friends.

You can also cleverly use recessed ceiling spotlights in the living room to emphasise certain areas such as the reading corner or the art on the wall. Combined with dimmable functions, the light can be adjusted to suit the mood and occasion for effective interior lighting - from bright illumination for reading to subdued light for a relaxing film night.

In the bedroom , these lights above the bed and on the side walls provide soft, pleasant lighting. With individually adjustable light zones, you can switch on the light for reading without disturbing your partner or create a calming atmosphere that invites you to relax and fall asleep.

From protection class IP21 to IP65: using recessed spotlights for the right zone

Using the bathroom as an example, you can recognise three different zones for which you should select a recessed spotlight with the appropriate protection class:

  • Zone 1 (area directly around the bath or shower):

In this area, recessed spotlights with protection rating IP45 or higher should be used. Particularly recommended here is a single-flame recessed aluminium light in black with IP65 protection rating, which offers a high level of water protection and can be safely installed near showers and bathtubs. IP65 recessed spotlights are the best choice if you want to play it safe in wet environments.

  • Zone 2 (area up to 0.6 metres around the bath or shower):

For this area, the light used should have at least an IP44 protection rating. We recommend the 3 LED recessed spotlight set IP44 in a matt chrome finish. It is ideal for zone 2 because it offers a high level of protection against splashing water and can be located near washbasins and showers.

  • Zone 3 (area from 2.4 metres away from water sources):

IP21 or higher is the best protection rating for zone 3 as it protects against dripping water and can be installed at a safe distance from direct water sources. Tip: The set of 3 metal recessed LED spotlights with protection class IP23.

Frequently asked questions

How many recessed spotlights do I need per square metre?

For a room height of up to 2.5 metres, you need an average light intensity of 300-400 lumens per square metre. In rooms with a height of 2.5 to 3.5 metres, you should look for a higher number of lumens, such as 500-600 lumens. For very high ceilings over 3.5 metres, it may be necessary to increase both the number of spotlights and their luminous intensity to 700 lumens or more per spotlight.

What is the best way to arrange my ceiling spotlights?

Arrange your ceiling spotlights at a regular distance of around 1.5 to 2 metres from each other so that you create uniform illumination of the room. In rectangular rooms, place the spots in an even grid pattern to avoid dark corners. Make sure that the spotlights are installed at least 50 cm away from the walls to avoid glare and shadow effects.

Can I also use the recessed ceiling spotlights outdoors?

Our recessed spotlights can also be installed in entrance canopies, patios or garages. Other possible applications include garden pavilions or pergolas. Just make sure that your recessed spotlight has a protection rating of at least IP23 so that it is protected against moisture.
