Hello,
has anyone ever installed the main lighting in a house or apartment using LED strips?
Possibly integrated into a drywall ceiling and walls?
Or is that too prone to issues?
What should definitely be considered during the planning stage?
The apartment consists of a bedroom, bathroom, two kids’ rooms, hallway, storage room, guest toilet, and a combined living, dining, and kitchen area, as well as a balcony, with a total living area of 106 m² (1141 sq ft).
Thank you very much for your advice.

What do you mean by saying that the room is inaccurately represented? That was not meant for you but was addressed to the original poster of the quoted message.

The advantage of indirect lighting is that it doesn’t cast shadows, even if it’s behind you. The light is directed at the wall so that it can spread out from there—hence it’s indirect. I was also pleasantly surprised that the coving behind me in the children’s room doesn’t cast a shadow on the changing table opposite me. Since then, I’ve become a big fan of indirect lighting. Combined with direct accent lighting, it creates a great overall effect.

Of course, there are always the cheapest products from China, but complaints are inevitable. That’s why my kitchen fitter no longer installs LED strips in kitchens. Very few people are willing to pay the necessary price for high-quality products. I think that statement is exaggerated. I installed cheap LED strips from Amazon under the base cabinets in my old kitchen five years ago. They have worked perfectly since then and provide excellent lighting on the countertop.
I installed three flush-mounted ceiling lights with indirect LED strips in my living and dining area. Two have a diameter of 1.2 meters (4 feet), and one has a diameter of 1 meter (3.3 feet). These lights make the large room, just under 52 square meters (560 square feet), really bright.
