Unless ur apartment come with sufficient lighting point on the ceiling or wall, u will either need to hack the wall for lighting , or go for plaster ceiling ...I'm not sure if ur apartment come with aircon and water heater point as well....

Hi Steven,

Thanks. No doubt on the points (I think your reply is directed to me unless you are asking the question to the other friend,  noien.

As for my apartment, the developer has already provided me with all the dedicated light and fan points including air-cond and water heater. My thread refers to the complexity in choosing appropriate lighting since my reno work does not include plaster ceiling and installation of down lights. I know my post is lengthy but may be you will understand and provide me with your 2 cents after reading it once more. smile.gif

Thanks.

if thats the case,u can have a look at ikea pendant light ...plenty of nice pendant light using e27 bulb ,which can provide sufficient brightness and looks modern .... u can consider track light,with 3-5spot light.

i would suggest u to get a stand lamp with at least 18w cool white and support by secondary lighting such as track spot light for a brighter living hall.

ikea got plenty of stand lamp ..ranging frm RM40 to RM 300+ ..Depend on the design .i have bought myself with a RM40 paper type stand lamp fitted with 20w LED bulb at living. ..quite bright imo.cool white. ...

Thanks onnying88. I am not sure whether purchasing lights from Ikea will be a good idea. But I think it is good way to get started there before deciding where to purchase what. Did you purchase your lights at Ikea ?
