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?

He hasn’t quoted any prices yet. He wants to send an offer.

The price definitely won’t be close to that of the nightstand.

Occhio is now also being considered as a bedside lamp. The lighting designer recommends the Sospeso pendant light with gesture control.

For me, a glass of Valpolicella, please.

Tomorrow the electrician will be at the shell construction stage, and I still don’t have a reasonable alternative to the Occhio io 3d sospeso for the bedside tables.

My wife and I don’t really like it, and it would also be an extremely expensive compromise. I haven’t found an alternative pendant light for the bedside table. Those ultra-modern wall lights that you can basically bend and shape as you like aren’t really our style either. My wife is already suggesting that we just plug in a standard off-the-shelf lamp and call it done.

I’m actually leaning towards wall lights. But I would only give the electrician the corresponding instruction if I have a suitable product. If anyone has good ideas for a bedside lamp, feel free to share.

I feel the same way, which is why I think having a socket below each bedside table, controlled by a switch, is best. With KNX, that shouldn’t be a problem for you. Having a wall switch nearby gives you all the options, for example:
- single click: turn the respective lamp on/off
- double click: turn both lamps on/off
- long press: panic mode – lights on throughout the house
I’m leaning towards wall lamps. But I would only assign the electrician once I have chosen a suitable product. If anyone has good ideas for a bedside lamp, please share.

Wall lamps feel too inflexible for me. What height, what distance from the bed, etc.?
Right now, I’m considering the Cini&Nils CuboLED, but I’m not completely sold yet. Something minimalist and simple along those lines...

We have now found several options after all. However, also wall / pendant.

Tom Dixon Copper Pendant Light 25

Vibia Palma LED Pendant Light or as a Wall Light

Although I can also imagine the Tom Dixon working well in the kitchen, where we have two seats at the peninsula.

I really like the Vibia Palma in both versions. However, at €600 each, I feel a strong internal resistance...
