Here you’ll find everything you need for each room in your home, from the biggest living room to the smallest dark corner. For your kitchen and entryway, we offer a selection of contemporary pendant fixtures. Our chandeliers make a perfect statement piece - perfect for over the dining room table. And if you’re a little low on ceiling height, you don’t have to sacrifice style. Consider a slim, modern flush mount fixture to brighten your space.
Purpose and Placement:
Define the purpose and location of your pendant light. Will it serve as focused task lighting for the kitchen island or create a cozy ambiance in the living room? Determine the use to guide your style and design choices.
Style and Aesthetics:
Harmonize the pendant light with your existing decor. Whether you prefer modern minimalism, rustic charm, or an ornate touch, choose a design that complements your interior for an enhanced appeal.
Size Matters:
Achieve balance with pendant light sizing. Measure the area and select a fixture ideally 12-24 inches narrower than the illuminated surface for a harmonious visual effect.
Height and Hanging:
Pay attention to the pendant light's hanging height for optimal functionality and aesthetics. General lighting works best at 30-36 inches above the surface, while task lighting benefits from 28-32 inches. Allow 30 inches of clearance over a dining table.
Light Direction and Bulb Type:
Consider the desired light direction. Open-bottom pendants provide direct lighting for task areas, while shaded bottoms create a softer, ambient glow. Opt for energy-efficient LED bulbs.
Dimming and Controls:
Enhance versatility with a dimmer switch, enabling you to adjust the light intensity for various moods and occasions.
