Shower lighting walk-in shower

Hello!

I need your creative and professional help for a shower lighting in a new build.
The bathroom floor plan is attached.
The shower should be a walk-in shower with a total size of 100x160 cm (so using the entire corner). The water connection is located on the "upper wall", where a rain shower will be installed, which extends 30 to 60 cm into the shower.

After some searching on the internet, we are still not sure what is the most modern and sensible lighting solution. Preferably, we would like recessed ceiling spots.

Now the question:
What would you choose: 2 spots (at 50cm and 100cm from the upper wall) or better 3 (25, 75, 125 cm), 4 in a square or completely different?
What is best: LED? Low-voltage halogen? Dimmable? How many watts? Is there a universal product on the market that is most commonly used?
The protection class should be IP 65 according to research!?

Thank you in advance!

Our current shower also has the size 100x160cm. We have installed six recessed spotlights there, evenly distributed. They are low-voltage halogen spotlights, today I would use LED (230V).

Our walk-in shower is 2 meters long (rough construction width 1 meter). Since we don't like ceiling spots, we installed the Ikea spotlight in the front quarter of the shower. It is, of course, LED, although I wouldn't have a problem with halogen either, since the shower is not on continuously.

6x LED. Why 230V and not 12V? Are there any LED floodlights that can be directly recommended? How many watts should one then take?

What do you think about dimming the LEDs?

Best regards

What do you think about dimming the LEDs?

Normal dimmers don't work very well with LEDs. Would the extra cost be justified for you? If you want it cozy, then leave the ceiling lights off and shower with the mirror lighting.
Or if you have some left over: then of course dim wherever possible, but I think the shower would be the last place for that.

Hello,

would it possibly also be an option to connect the spots in the shower via two separate circuits and switches?

Then I could regulate the light intensity a bit - or are dimmers cheaper than this solution?
