Cove Glow

Hide an LED strip and wash the ceiling with light

Architectural cove lighting from a cheap LED strip. Stick the rail along the top front edge of a wardrobe or shelf: the front upstand hides the strip, which sits on a 45 degree seat facing the wall, so the ceiling washes with soft indirect light. Print as many 150 mm lengths as you need.
