Which Light Color To Use In Your Bathroom Remodel
A Guide to Choosing the Right Thunderbunny LED Kit
When planning your bathroom remodel, lighting isn’t just a finishing touch—it’s a design element that can transform the space. Thunderbunny’s bathroom LED shower niche kits make it easy to add modern, custom lighting that complements your tile, finishes, and overall aesthetic.
But how do you choose the right light color temperature for your bathroom? That depends on your materials, fixtures, and the overall mood you want to create.
Let’s walk through the options in our Thunderbunny LED shower niche lighting kits so you can find the perfect match for your space.
The 3000k Warm Yellow LEDs
- Darker tile
- Wood-look or natural stone finishes
- Gold or brass fixtures
Heads up:
The 3000K lighting may not be ideal in all-white bathrooms unless you’re using warm hardware like gold. The contrast can sometimes feel off if paired with cool-toned chrome or silver.
A white shower with 3000K lighting feels warmer but pairing it with gold fixtures ties the look together perfectly. Check out the bathroom example photos to get inspiration!
The 4000k Warm White LEDs
The 4000K LED shower niche lighting kit from Thunderbunny is our most versatile option. It’s a warm white light that still leans neutral—making it a safe choice if you’re unsure what will work best.
Perfect for:
- Mixed finishes (think wood and tile combos)
- Earth tones
- Neutral tile colors
- Modern minimalist bathrooms
Pro Tip:
Match your mirror backlighting with your shower niche lighting. A 4000K shower and a 6000K mirror light can clash if you're not careful!
The 6000k Bright White LEDs
The 6000K Thunderbunny LED lighting kit delivers a bright, clean white light—ideal for people who want maximum visibility in the shower.
Best used in:
- White or brightly colored bathrooms
- High-contrast tile designs
- Spaces with silver or chrome hardware
- Makeup or grooming-focused bathrooms
Pro Tip:
If you choose 6000K, consider adding a dimmer switch. This gives you full control over the brightness—ideal for winding down in the evening or grabbing a perfect photo of your remodel.
