One of my design hang-ups is sunken ceiling spots. Personally, I would never fit them, although I can understand having them in a kitchen or bathroom. But this is just… something. No options for anything but searing white light. I can’t even see any lamps in the bedroom.

    Whole place is like a car showroom, but brighter.

    Do people who have their homes like this have cataracts or something? I dunno how else one could hack spending more than 30 uncomfortable minutes in this kind of glare.

    Ceiling spots are the devil’s work, no matter the brightness. So ugly, so impractical, so expensive, intense hassle to get rid of. Urgh.

      It’s the stuff of nightmares for anyone with sensitivity issues. So much brightness and so much noise bouncing off every hard surface.

      With you 100% on ceiling spots being evil.

      You know, I only just realised they have office style blinds, the type with the white plastic string of beads, in every room.

        Forgot to mention the ice rink of a floor in most of the rooms.

        Lethal if a drop of water gets on that.
