ᐅ Basement Lighting Design for Prefabricated Concrete Slab Ceiling

Hello everyone,
I am currently planning the lighting arrangement for the basement ceiling.
In the hallway, surface-mounted spotlights are planned; in storage room III, recessed spotlights; and the rest will have standard ceiling lights or moisture-resistant fixtures. The number of spotlights seems quite high to me (although I have no experience). What do you think about this? Smaller spotlights with a beam angle of 30-40° are planned. Does that make sense, or would larger ones be better?
Thanks in advance and best regards,
PMW
P.S.: Each of the two hallways is planned to have a ceiling motion sensor

Moving the staircase is no longer possible because of the ground floor.I’m also not completely convinced by the ground floor 😉 but there are better experts here than me.

The utility room is separate because I wanted the ventilation intake and exhaust, heat pump, etc., at the back of the house and not on the front by the entrance door side or facing the street.I would reconsider that.
You will then have to run water/sewer and possibly electricity across again, and for me, ventilation and heat pumps in the garden are rather disruptive—placed by the driveway or in front of the door, they bother people walking on the sidewalk.
At least I would change this corner in the basement. Also, see if the second hallway can be eliminated somehow.

I don’t think I even uploaded the ground floor plan, but it has to suit each individual’s taste and needs. I removed that corner in the basement, good tip.
