[QUOTE="gembrain, post: 345844, member: 23481"] Warm white normally considered to be 2700K to 3200K - similar to incandescent bulbs. You don't mention type of shop as different brightness and colour temps will suit different situations. If you're really keen and handy with a PC then have a look at Dialux or Relux lighting design programs. Both are free. Draw your room, add light fittings, and you can get rendered pictures showing light distribution and intensity in lumens at different distances from fitting (Example attached). If they have the particular light fittings that you are looking at in their manufacturer catalogues then easy peasy. If not, then some educated guesses required to find a suitable one to use in the program. [ATTACH]4473._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
