How To Choose And Hang Your Chandelier Right For A Majestic Home Space?
A chandelier is one of the majestic home accessories that creates an exquisite ambience for your home. Ask any interior designer, and you will know that chandeliers are their favourite pieces when it comes to lighting.
When buying a Chandelier- no matter big or small, you will be mesmerized by the layers, the small details, the clarity of the crystals and the grandeur it brings to the home.
Anyone who has the slightest understanding of the interiors will concede that Lighting can affect a vast difference to your space by adding a charm that breathes your character by giving a soulful resonance.
But if you love chandeliers as we at Modterior do, but, not so sure what kind will be right for your home space and where would you hang it, we present you a simple guide to choosing and hanging a chandelier.
Let’s not waste any more time and begin-
Establishing The Tone
One of the most loved things about having a chandelier in your space is that it can give an even ambient lighting. A balanced lighting will make sure that the other pieces across the room are also illuminated well.
Nonetheless, we also know that chandeliers are not utterly an illumination equipment rather they are used as a piece of art or decorative accessories. So it should be employed in a space where it commands an authoritative presence.
Most interior designers will tell you that the scale of the light fixture should be determined in comparison to the ceiling height. Consider this thumb rule-
• Simply add length and width of the room in feet together
• Convert the sum total into inches to get a ballpark number
• Use this number as the diameter for your chandelier
If you are thinking to get a Bridge Chandelier or Gamut Chandelier, you can choose the bulb variety according to your taste. Nevertheless most modern home these days go for Chandeliers with LED bulbs with power 2700k and less. Install the dimmer for flexibility to set the tone of the room according to your mood (you might want to mute the lights a little for a romantic setting).
The Logistics in Play
Undoubtedly, Chandeliers elevate your space. If correctly proportioned with the room height, they can make your room appear large. As such you would not want a chandelier that is too dominating or lengthy. It might give an impression of dropping onto your head.
If your home has a low ceiling, you might want a chandelier that is shallow with broad length and width. Also, the place where you are hanging the chandelier is significant.
Like most interior specialists would think of having a chandelier dropping down in the dining space with a minimum of 6 feet difference in the floor and while in other areas they would go for a least 8 feet separation.
Illustrate Your Creative Side
Majority of people would prefer Chandeliers in the bigger spaces like halls, dining rooms, entrances and Lobbies. However, they are not just limited to the bigger spaces.
Consider being a little imaginative in your approach. Adding chandeliers to guest bathrooms or the corners of the house, passageways, can surprise your guests and give a more theatrical effect.
