Hey,

Currently, three recessed spotlights are planned. However, I’m not sure if three are too few, meaning it might be too dark.

As shown in the pictures, these will be installed. Are the performance specifications sufficient?

And in the bathroom, simply arranged in a row, also three units.

Thanks for your feedback!

Just asking around, what do you think about the Philips Hue Aurelle in the square version for the upstairs hallway?

Is that a good idea, or does something like that not really fit there? I think 2200 lumens is quite decent as well.

Maybe someone has it and could share a few pictures?

Thanks!

In this case, I would simply use any rectangular panel; it usually costs about one-third as much and provides the same light. Or does it have to be Hue?

Well, since the Hue system is already in place, it would be great to integrate the ceiling lamp as well. Otherwise, I would agree with you that any other panel would do. I am currently thinking about linking it to the Hue sensor in the attic hallway to use the night light function at night, or to control it via the sensor/Alexa in general.

Light fixture with good light distribution, average CRI, lightweight, slim, well-made, worth the price, and satisfies the male urge to tinker. You can always find more expensive or cheaper options.

I was mainly thinking about the light output and distribution—whether this type of lamp would suit a hallway or if it’s more appropriate for a study/office/kitchen. Also, whether just one of this kind would be enough. Perhaps even the 120x30cm (47x12 inches) version could work because the hallway is a bit narrow and elongated.

And yes, a bit of experimentation is fine, but only—as mentioned before—because Hue lighting is already installed.
