recessed lights

5 years ago

All your projects are stunning!! I have a question regarding a recessed light. If the roof decking is the T&G, how did you accomplish to install the recessed light and wire into T&G decking? Thanks in advance.

Hi! Sorry I didn't receive notification of your question! My apologies. We build a small wood box around each fixture on the roof, then cover it in insulation and foam over it. You have to select the light fixtures that are accessed and removed from below. Hope that helps!

Thanks. The ceiling height is 9'6". Suspended ceiling preferably made with POP placed in situ shall result in a plenum of not less than 15" considering an acceptable height of about 8' at bottom of ceiling from floor level. Two ceiling fans of sweep 48" each placed at first and third middle quarter also needs to be integrated with ceiling profile. Will send ceiling and all around room pictures shortly after compiling. Thanks again.

Hello Anand, You may leave it as per the symmetry of the room. However the lights near the television may be provided a separate switch to turn them off while watching movies etc. Thanks, Amit CORNERSTONE DESIGNS Bangalore.

Romney, First thing is that requirement of light is measured in lumens. Secondly , you will have to look at the room requirements , colors on the wall, furniture, flooring etc. Even the temperature (i.e. warm or cool) of the lights is very important. Depending on your requirements an appropriate suggestion can be made. Please share some room pics along with query. Thanks, Nitin Cornerstone Designs, Bangalore.
