Part of what makes any bathroom stand out is the lighting. Whether it's lighting on the cabinet, bathroom wall lighting or around the floor area to give some subtle illumination in the evening, getting the bathroom lighting right can really give your bathroom the wow factor.
We see so many striking bathroom wall lights that are placed above the sink to create a great feature, so we wanted to pick out some of our very favourites to share with you.
Are there any particular safety considerations when it comes to bathroom wall lighting?
Before you go ahead and choose your bathroom lighting, make sure that your light fitting will be safe to use in the bathroom.
Where there is water in close proximity to electricity, you must ensure that your light fitting meets regulations that can be safely used in the bathroom.
Light fittings are given a two digit IP number and it is the second of the two numbers that indicates it's protection against moisture, with 0 no protection and 8 submersed in water.
For a bathroom wall light which is within 0.6 metres from the tap, you should look for an IP44 rating which offers protection against splashing.
So whether you want a vintage look or a modern contemporary bathroom light fitting, we have chosen of our favourites which are all rated IP44 as a minimum.
