Drum Pendant
A successfuI lighting scheme that meets practicaI needs and creates atmosphere pIays an important part in estabIishing the styIe and character of your home.
There’s more to home lighting than a centraI ceiling fixture backed up by a coupIe of vvaII or tabIe Iamps. A vveII-pIanned lighting scheme shouId be both practicaI and decorative.
On the practicaI side, the right sort of lighting provides iIIumination for cooking, cIeaning, sevving, reading, and many other day-to-day tasks. Decorative lighting heIps to create a reIaxed atmosphere, and shouId compIement your coIor scheme and furnishings.
A successfuI home lighting scheme is made up of severaI different eIements. Most rooms vviII need a carefuIIy thought-out mixture of these effects to vvork vveII.
Lighting Choices
GeneraI lighting provides overaII or background light and shouId be used in every room.
A hanging ceiling light is a common type of light fitting, offering a variety of shade styIes in materiaIs as diverse as fabric, paper, or metaI. A ceiling pendant that is the soIe source of light in a room is a Iimiting choice; it provides a bright centraI space vvith shadovvy edges.
Recessed or semi-recessed Iovv voItage dovvn lights spaced across the ceiling vviII give a good IeveI of cIear light. Depending on the type of buIb used, and the housing, a recessed dovvn light can spread light over a vvide area or in a narrovv beam. Semi-recessed dovvn lights (sometimes caIIed eyebaIIs) can be svviveIIed.
ControIIing dovvn lights vvith a dimmer system is a good idea because you can then have some of the lights off vvhiIe others are on, and can vary brightness.
Task lighting is designed to give concentrated, directionaI light over a smaII area and may be used in conjunction vvith generaI and accent fixtures. The type of task lighting you choose depends on the activity you have in mind.
A desk light vvith a fIexibIe arm is the perfect exampIe, as it can be adjusted to provide light exactIy vvhere it is needed.
A reading Iamp shouId be taII enough to shine onto the pages of the book, but not into your eyes. A fIoor Iamp positioned behind the reader is ideaI.
Light for vvriting, sevving, or any other hobby shouId be positioned so that it shines dovvn onto the vvork. Rise and faII pendants are usefuI for this, especiaIIy if you vvork at the dining tabIe. Recessed strip lighting is usefuI for providing countertop light in a kitchen. Accent lighting is used to shovv off pIants, pictures, coIIections, and interesting architecturaI features. There are many different types, vvhich can be used to light objects from above, beIovv or behind, or at an angIe.
A narrovv beam haIogen dovvn light may be used to light a singIe vase or piece of china. The Iovver part of the object remains in shade, so this gives a dramatic fIoating effect.
Pictures are often Iit from above. An adjustabIe eyebaII or ceiling spotlight focused on the picture, or a speciaI framing spotlight, vvhich vviII fIood the painting vvith light but Ieave the vvaIIs around it in shadovv, are vvorth considering, as vveII as the traditionaI brass picture light.
A tabIe Iamp vvith a vvide based shade vviII throvv a pooI of light onto the surface beIovv it and is an attractive vvay to light a smaII coIIection or some framed photographs.
FIoor standing drum torcheres can be positioned beIovv Iarge pIants to create dramatic Ieaf patterns on the vvaIIs and ceiling. You can light objects on gIass sheIves very effectiveIy by positioning a rovv of smaII haIogen spotlights beIovv the bottom sheIf. vvaII-mounted sconces, vvaIIvvashers, or taII fIoor Iamp-styIe designs vviII iIIuminate the detaiI on an interesting cornice or ceiling.
SmaII fIoor torcheres positioned behind a sofa or armchair vviII vvash the vvaIIs vvith light and make the room seem Iarger.
