Above the bath to 2.5m is zone 1, which allows IPX4 rated luminaires. I doubt there's many, if any decorative IP rated pendants out there (some quality LED brands would be). With 12V, make sure the transformer/driver is mounted up in the ceiling aswell. A good sparky could modify a 240v fitting into a 12v.

Have you also considered not using pendant lights at all? You have the down lights well placed and it allows a clear view across the room. But if you did go with pendants, I would only do 3 to be able to keep them in a straight line. I think it would be too busy with a 4th above the other part of the counter. I prefer the 1st pendants, the white and oak, to help brighten the look. Good luck! Lighting can be a difficult thing to decide on.

Hello awesome Houzz people! Thanks for your taking the time to read my question! I’d seeking some advice for pendant lighting design and layout, and would love your input and ideas for the following choices: Colours: Brushed Gold, Polished Brass, Wood, white, or something else?? The house has a scandi-feel, with lots of timber, whites and brushed metal and black glass for appliances Number of pendants: 3, 5 or more?? The dining room table is 2.7 m long, so there’s a large area to light up Arrangement: straight line, symmetrically offset, or in between? The cathedral ceiling height is 5.5 m so there’s lots of room to play with, and kitchen area has lots of straight lines Style: standard conical or something more creative?? Ideally the lighting is downward only (to create cosy feel around table, despite large room). Th other light fittings in the house are minimal (White cans in kitchen above bench). Looking forward to hear what your ideas!

What a wonderful space. I love it. what direction do you come from when you enter the room, that may be the main sightline to consider when choosing the colour, as you want the lights to be sufficiently visible against the background that is relevant from the entry point to the space.
