The flush ceiling light is the most discreet of ceiling lamps – and one of the most frequently chosen: it hugs the ceiling, fits everywhere, shines evenly and gets in nobody’s way. The trouble starts at the choosing stage, because one word covers lamps from 10 to 100 cm in diameter, from 600 to 6,000 lumens, with replaceable bulbs and with permanently built-in diodes, for the living room, the bathroom and outdoors. In this guide we walk through every decision in order: when a flush light instead of a chandelier, what diameter for which room, how many lumens you really need, what colour temperature and what about dimming – so you buy your ceiling light once, and well.
