    Recessed lighting can work well as a supplement to other lighting in your bedroom. Fixed directly over the bed, recessed lighting can offer excellent reading light, for example. It is also a good choice for your closets, as recessed lighting tends to make a small area look larger.

    On the Other: Other Lighting Needed

    The bedroom is where you want to create a relaxed, warm and personal look, so you will need to add other character enhancing fixtures to complement the recessed lighting. You can use sconces or bedside table lamps. Take note that recessed lighting doesn't work with exposed beam ceilings, which requires spot light fixtures.

    Bottom Line

    Recessed lighting, which is widely used in all rooms by builders today, can make a great complement to a bedroom's general lighting. Install a ceiling fan and use recessed lighting for task areas or to enhance a favorite picture or piece of furniture. Your bedroom will have the ideal combination of a warm, inviting look with practical and long-term use.
