There are lots of factors in determining your lighting needs. Ceiling height, number of lumens, budget.

I went with the T8 bulbs in a 4 bulb surface mount fixture using 5000 kelvin bulbs. I think I have 24 fixtures in my 40 x 50 shop with a 12 foot ceiling and it is really bright. If you have a local lighting company, they have software that will give you all the specs and layout.

I was lucky and found my fixtures used, got them for less than half of new, just had to pay more for bulbs, but they are rated for 10,000 hours.

My walls and ceiling are white and a light gray floor so that helps also.
