Then put lights in the wordrobe or using led lights or track lights focusing on the wordrobe instead? I dun think your gf can see her clothes well with the downlights at the bottom 1/2 of the room.

Anyway 1 light point can be used to control 3 lighting source with the use of IC control or remote control. So you can control which light to be on and you will not have the lights shining above your head unless u choose to on the lights above your head.. :P

Paiseh, maybe i use the wrong term. I am referring to the light point that is attached to the switch. The electrician will charge for extention of each light point from this main power point. Currently if u on the switch all the lights will be on, unless you split the switch points. Another way is to add an ic controller where the light extention points can be grouped A or B or C (dependent on the ic controller hor). This switch on will on A, then the 2nd off on will on B, off on again will on C or on All the lights. Same can be done with remote controller switching.

Some electrician will charge you for extra switching points too. :unsure: Must see which is a cheaper option.

This is a question that is largely dependent on your preference.

Can you accept visible cable trunking above your headboard?

No

Do you have existing cable trunking behind your bed? If not, do you mind adding electrical trunking behind your bed?

No.. and dont mind to add..

How bright do you want your MBR to be? (look like day even though it's night)

Dun need it to be bright like day but there are certain times i tot i might need it bright

Do you like your lights focused or diffused?

diffused

Do you intend to read in bed?

no

Do you want extra lights to be warm or daylight?

I have my downlight cool white and my cove as warm. I wanted it to be bright enough should i need to look for things at night..

You answer my questions and I will advise you accordingly

Wow.. Like doing survey.. hahaha..

I would suggest this

oh i cater 70cm liao.. Tot shd be enough.. No?

You should cater more if possible :) Pregnant women would find it very tight.

Regarding wardrobe lighting, have you considered having lighting inside your wardrobe that switches on when you open the wardrobe?

or do 3 downlights, 2 above headboard and 1 infront of wardrobe?

and have 2 switches - one for the two above headboard, and another for the wardrobe light? in this way, if turn on the wardrobe light, will not disturb the one sleeping liao

How do u achieve the above kind of lighting? Putting table side lamp?

Wardrobe light.. yes but im thinking which one would be better? Track light on the wardrobe or in wardrobe lighting like kelly mention..

As for the bed i will take note of it.. Cos we have not bought our bed but have our eyes on 1.. So maybe we will see if can customised the size abit or not lor..
