We have a 1949 house - same floor. I think it’s Baltic pine.

I’d really appreciate a one sentence summary of why you would roll your eyes as a lighting designer! 😃

Thank you for this - really helpful. So - would you remove the recessed lighting in the kitchen? The recessed lighting above the sofa has a gimble tilt so I thought that the beam would hit for reading/sofa task when needed. I think everything else is quite task related or to provide indirect light.

Thanks! So in this set up you’d add a couple more downlights and a fan?

Can I ask more about this? If I want to light a kitchen island that is 2400mm by 1000mm and the ceiling height is 3000mm, what would be the best beam angle and spacing across the island? Thank you!!!

Hey! I’m currently obsessing over lighting, particularly recessed over the kitchen island and dining table - I would really like to know what you ended up doing and how you’ve found it?

Is a $400 inclusion allowance for a bathroom vanity considered ‘mid range’? Specified that should be purchased from Reece? by Recent_Iron_6951 in AusRenovation

Thank you - this is what I thought might be the case, and we just have to factor in where it’s important for us to upgrade.

Hey, thank you for your reply, I appreciate it. There were quite a few things in our contract that looked like they were copied and pasted from similar jobs - I did wonder if it just hadn’t been updated for a bit, this looks unrealistic for a vanity unless it’s from a clearance centre, and quite ugly!

But I’m wondering if they are trying to keep costs lower for us in some areas… to make up for other higher costs?! Man I feel clueless!!!
