Amp Up Your Space with Pendant Light Fixtures

Pendant light fixtures have been a growing favorite in lighting décor—they have become the modern replacement for the traditional chandelier. Not only do pendant light fixtures provide necessary lighting, they also offer another design element for your space. They are a cost-effective way to make your business or home more elegant.

Pendants, however, require some considerations. Below are three things to consider when you are planning to purchase pendant light fixtures.

Evaluate Your Working Budget

There are many types of pendant light fixtures for you to select from. As with any home improvement project or business remodel, there are extravagant choices that are still budget-friendly and statement pieces that may provide that extra “Wow!” to your space. You should understand your most realistic budget when considering all your lighting options. Practicing this step will help ease your selection process and will likely save you time and what could have been potential frustration.

Examine the Scale and Style of the Room

Buying the most beautiful pendant lighting fixture will be tempting, however, you should consider if the lighting will match the interior style of the space. (Hint: A glimmering disco ball may not be the best look aesthetically when placed in a rustic style farm house interior). If you have a smaller space to work with, understanding scale of furniture and lighting and how they work within the space is paramount to a beautiful and workable design. It is not ideal to place one huge fixture in the middle of the room, instead, you may want to opt for two or three mini pendant light fixtures.

Choose Where to Place the Fixture

Hanging fixtures are usually installed 30 inches above the area you want to light. They should be about 60 inches away from the floor for the most ideal illumination of space. Most of these lighting options are used above kitchen counters and islands, lobby desks and office spaces, but they can also be perfectly applicable for above bedside tables, nightstands, and individual desks.
