Hello,
how did you approach lighting design and when exactly did you plan/implement it?
I still have the option to install Halox P housings with transformer tunnel (€60) for LED recessed spots. I’m not really convinced by spots (focused light + high costs), but what alternatives are there?

A bit futuristic, that would have suited the flat roof version (at the Hotzenplotz house).

R.Hotzenplotz16 Mar 2018 17:47I am still discussing with our lighting planner which color temperature to choose. He believes that a consistent color temperature should be used throughout the entire house and suggests 2700 Kelvin (3026°F) for indoors and 3000 Kelvin (3272°F) for outdoor lighting.
Currently, we mostly have 3000 Kelvin (3272°F) in our apartment, and we actually quite like it. He strongly advises against mixing different color temperatures—not only within individual rooms but throughout the whole house.
What are your thoughts on this?
Until now, I had thought that using different color temperatures within a room could make sense, especially for lighting scenes with KNX systems. For example, using ceiling spots and wall lights with different color temperatures. But he argues this should be avoided.
He only accepts my preference for 3000 Kelvin (3272°F) in the kitchen—if at all.
I am still considering this. I can imagine, for example, having pendant lights over the dining table and wall lights with a different color temperature than the ceiling spots in the living room.
Also, I want functional lighting in the office—and I don’t see 2700 Kelvin (3026°F) working well there, at least not as the only available scene.
We haven’t discussed an even wider range of color temperatures.
I’m interested to hear your thoughts and opinions—fully aware that it is also a matter of personal taste.
