Hello everyone!

My wife and I are considering getting lighting installed in the planned partial walls (one next to the bathtub and one in the shower).

What are your experiences with this? Has anyone here implemented something like that?

If yes, how much does it roughly cost? Just a ballpark figure... And how is it usually switched? Normally together with the main light? Or do you have a separate switch?
Our vanity unit also has a surrounding LED strip. We will have that controlled separately beside the main light switch, so it doesn’t cause glare at night or fully wake us up...
Would it be a good idea to connect the lighting for the partial walls to that as well?

By the way, how large should such partial walls be? Do you have any practical experience? And is it even feasible to build that into an 11.5 cm (4.5 inch) partition wall?

I would be glad to get some feedback.

If you’re thinking about it, could you please illustrate a bit more clearly what you mean?

This is what I mean.

Did I use the wrong term? ops:

Modern bathtub in a gray tiled bathroom with wall shelf, plant, and bathroom accessories.

Ah... so, a recessed niche with lighting. Yes, that’s quite trendy nowadays… or almost already out of fashion again.

It can certainly be implemented in a standard bulkhead. Switchable as desired with the main light, separately, or even via sensors, etc.

Well, basically no problem at all. Have an electrician install a 5-core cable, and that’s it. This gives you all the options to control a light strip or anything else with a switch or sensors...

More like one that’s not entirely clear without a picture. I wouldn’t build walls there; drywall construction is much more practical.
