- Plan the layout
Space lights about 4 to 6 feet apart for even coverage. Avoid putting them too close to walls. - Pick the right trim
From baffle to adjustable “eyeball” styles, trim affects the beam and glare. Choose based on your lighting goal—soft wash or focused spotlight? - Add dimmers
Adjust brightness based on time of day or mood. Dimmers make recessed lighting super flexible. - Layer it up
Don’t rely on recessed lights alone—add pendant lights, lamps, or sconces to round out the space.
Final tip: Use recessed lighting as the foundation, not the whole story. Combine it with other fixtures for a room that feels thoughtfully lit and visually balanced.
