Sorry bub. wooger posted:Not sure I see the point in having it attached to the house, especially if there’s not even a way to get in there without going outside first. It may be a cost thing or possibly even a zoning/HOA rule about putting extra “buildings” (free standing structures like sheds or cottages, etc) on your property.

You can use the strong house wall as a support, you build one less wall, and it moderates temperature shifts because of the extra thermal mass. You need less space, too.

You know those kooky russians on youtube that 'heated' their house via electrifying a piece of metal which hung through out their house? That if you touched the piece of metal you would get immediately fried and immolated? That's what I thought of, but ikea-fied.

One of the last pieces of my apartment living room puzzle is lighting. I have 4 recessed floods that are basically blinding (and, as such, are rarely used) and I’d like to put in some sort of fixture with lower-watt bulbs. My design inspiration is loosely Palm Springs MCM/Jet Age, but would need to be adapted for a room with 8-foot ceilings (lol). I’m trying but struggling to find some sort of small, maybe Sputnik-like, fixtures that would screw into the existing cans or maybe some sort of similarly-styled shade. Are there any terms or keywords I should be looking out for?

That way you can change the temp/brightness and/or add colorful mood lighting.

When your dream house pops on the market just a little out of your price range. Except for the kitchen. That would have to change.

I have spots throughout the house but as you say they're too bright, but I knew this when I fitted them. The plan is twofold: 1. Progressively replace the normal GU10 LED bulbs with Ikea wireless colour-changing bulbs (underway) 2. Add a bunch of floor lamps on the same control system and only use the overheads when I really need powerful vision

Transitioning the cans to Hue is an easier way to go with my plan and a good fallback, I’d also be interested to know if there was a simple system/name for adapting recessed cans into low-profile mini-chandeliers.

May be that there is, but if not, most cans are designed to be installed from below, so you can remove them that way too (though very carefully so you don't damage your ceiling). At that point you've got a hole and some cable, with which you can do as you wish.

Yeah I put in a few of the ikea wireless bulbs / controllers and they work really well. I end up using the controller 90% of the time but it's nice bing able to use the app too.

Sometimes you see a kitchen and just know nobody ever actually intended on cooking in it. Usually it's less blatant, though.
