BTW would like to ask about the colour temperature for study area.

I see a lot is using 6500K as default, also most offices are also using 6500K lighting.

But when I check online, I see there are recommendations for 4000K instead. May I know if the 4000K is really suitable for study area?

Or shall i mix it? 1 batten 6500K + 1 batten 4000K?

Thanks

Your room is going too look weird AF for mixing different colour temperature.

For me, I will never pick a colour temperature above 4000k. 6500k is for warehouse or office.

Unless you really like to have a bright room, then 6500k is fine.

ok noted with that for not to mix the colour temp.

actually i'm tempted to use 4000k for study area, but a bit worry that it might be a bit yellowish. since you are using not more than 4000k, is it ok to have this 4000k at study area?

thanks

My kitchen, bathroom and study area are using 4000k.
