Nice! avoiding recessed lights is a great idea. The Brightgreen website is a great resource. You can calculate the amount of light required for each space by changing beam angles, ceiling heights and color temperature. The calculator isn't set up for wall scones however the same rules apply. Ceiling mounted lights are also a great alternative to wall scones. Hope this helps. https://brightgreen.com/led-lights/d900.sh-curve-downlight 

Hi Louise - thank you for getting back - a little hard to explain but ill try my best - by the arm I mean like an extended pole that would go from the wall light (that would sit on the wall - would be longer - sort of like a stem coming down from the light what ive seen so far is mainly decorative im thinking) but maybe where a cord could be hidden therefore no hard wiring required - basically I don't want the cord to the plug in to be seen as the wall is bare). Have I confused you completely? Cheers wendy

I just finished our new ensuite, which has a 1600mm vanity. I have 4 lighting circuits (switches): 1. 2 x downlights for the main bathroom in a similar place to you. 2. Another 2 x downlights ( 1 over each sink) 250mm off the wall (vanity is 500mm deep so halfway between person and mirror). 3. Extractor Fan / Heat Lamp and 4. Strip light under vanity for late night trips. The downlights are dimmable so you can have the main bathroom in a medium light and then you can choose how much to crank your vanity lights. The idea is that the light should shine onto your face hence they are installed in front of the person and they are on a gimble so they can be tilted to point at your face. I think you are in Australia so I can tell you they are the Domus Aqua Tilt 13 and are fully sealed (ip65) so no issue having over your shower, etc. They are also very bright as the light bounces off the white tiles, so really they are only needed when applying makeup. It's hard to know exactly where your lighting needs to go when you just have plans in front of you, but you could always get your electrician to wire both for wall sconces and downlights and then when you are further along you can choose whether to cut downlights or have wall lights. (Remember to take pictures and measurements of the wire locations before they close in the walls / ceiling!) If you try downlights first, it's also a lot easier to change your mind (i.e patch a ceiling) than wall lights as that usually means drilling through tiles..

It really does look like a display home, where are your windows? Get some long mirrors and stick those square holders to them so it can help bounce the light around. It also can give it some visual interest because just sticking those holders direct to the wall makes it look extra "display home". Get some good overhead lighting and not just a lightbulb in the ceiling. Add lighting around the room. Tall lamp in corner, table lamp on side table and chunky candles on coffee table.
