Chandeliers and Pendants in Every Room?

Jul 9th 2021 Staff

When you think of chandeliers in your home, you likely think of the dining room and the large fixture hanging above the table. When you think about pendant lighting, your mind likely goes to the kitchen and the fixtures hanging above the island. At Accent Lighting in Wichita, our showroom has chandeliers and pendants for these spaces, but have you ever thought about how you can utilize these hanging fixtures in other rooms of your house? In this post, we’ll look at a few ways you can add them to certain spaces in your home, making the area brighter and more interesting.

Bathrooms are no longer small, simple spaces that consist of a sink, a toilet, and a shower or bathtub. Modern home builders design bathrooms as luxurious, spa-like areas that are intended to help the homeowner relax and pamper themselves. A small chandelier can be the perfect ambient fixture for your bathroom, and it can express the elegance and sophistication that you want the room to have. If you don’t want the width or ornamentation of a chandelier, then a pendant light can provide the class and illumination that you want.

The Living Room

The living room is an easy choice for a chandelier and pendant lights. If you have vaulted ceilings, then placing a large chandelier can create a strong focal point that every guest will notice. Instead of the traditional flush-mount light or ceiling fan, you can have a hanging fixture that brightens the room and sparks conversation.

Pendant lighting can be ideal for dedicated seating areas, especially those in the corner of the room where the main ambient light from the chandelier may not reach. If you have a coffee table that centers the seating area, then consider hanging pendants above it for more intimate illumination.

The Bedroom

The bedroom is your retreat from the world, where you can be alone and shut everything out. The sophistication of a chandelier can be perfect for a bedroom, especially the master suite. You can hang a new fixture above the bed, and with the right dimmer controls, you can create the perfect mood to suit your current state of mind.

You can hang pendant lights on either side of the bed, replacing the need for bedside lamps. You’ll want to be sure that they’re not directly above your head, so that you have plenty of light for reading or browsing social media before you turn in for the night.

While you may not need chandeliers and pendants in every room, it is possible to find light fixtures that work in any space in your home.
