Allow air around the fitting to dissipate the lamp's heat, and check the available depth before drilling into a slab or a false ceiling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"disposition\"\u003eHow should you arrange spotlights on a living room ceiling?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpotlights are arranged by starting from the areas to be lit: worktop, table, walkway, corner of the room. One spotlight per useful area is better than a regular row.

You note the position of furniture, worktops and doors, then install one light point per use. This step avoids drilling at random and discovering a dark area once the holes are made.

Too close together, two mini spotlights create two visible patches; too far apart, they leave a dark hole between them. Draw the plan on the floor and judge the result by eye before drilling. Above a table, one or two \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/suspension-minimaliste\"\u003eminimalist pendant lights\u003c\/a\u003e often work better than a line of spotlights.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"encastre-ou-orientable\"\u003eRecessed LED mini spotlight or directional wall spotlight: which to choose?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA recessed mini spotlight disappears into the ceiling and shows only its beam; a directional spotlight stays visible and can be aimed at a wall, a worktop or an object. The Bali bamboo spotlight belongs to this second family: it is mounted on a wall or ceiling and suits rooms where you want to move the light around.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eRecessed LED mini spotlight: what it changes in the ceiling\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA recessed spotlight shows only its light: the ceiling keeps a clean line, which suits low rooms.
