Hi Ehwee,

Thanks for doing this.

Am wondering if you have any suggestions on how to do the lighting. I am planning to do plaster ceiling at the living area except the kitchen. The kitchen will just put a round surface mounted right.

The plan is below, plan to have 5 downlights, and one pendant just above the dining area. I also plan to put a ceiling fan in between the sofa and TV. There is a shoe cabinet just after the entrance. Is it sufficient lighting, or do you have any other suggestions perhaps including other form of lighting.



The kitchen has a glass partition looks like this, so light from the kitchen might also light up the dining table area. Its a rather small 750 sqft 2 BR

Thank you for your valuable reply I really appreciate it.

I am newbie but while awaiting your reply I came out with this. I prefer to stick to a simple recessed light+eyeball+pendant setup as we are tight on budget. While awaiting your reply I have came up with this.



6 recessed downlights, then 1 eyeball each at the TV cabinet and Shoe Cabinet as accent lighting. A pendant at the Dining area and a Surface Downlight at the kitchen. What do you think about this.

I will however do more research on the concealed lights, and strip lights. I have considered placing the fan in the middle but I would have thought it will look weird. I guess it will not be the case as you have recommended it.

Once again I appreciate your input!
