The most basic rule that isn't really a rule is something called "The Rule of Three." Essentially, The Rule of Three states that an easy way to achieve balance is to repeat an element three times. I like to think of it as the rule of odd numbers. Human brains are pattern-recognition machines, and the most basic pattern there is an odd number. In this kitchen there are three pendants over the island and a fourth coordinating pendant over the sink. This room's balanced because the three pendants over the island are on a single plane, and the one pendant over the sink is on another plane all together.

Above an island. When thinking of pendant lighting what probably comes to mind first are fixtures hung in a kitchen. They are a great solution for providing adequate task lighting while also providing an opportunity to enhance or reinforce the kitchen design. Typically pendants should be placed 28 to 34 inches above the countertop, or 72 inches above the floor. The nickel fixtures are a wonderful choice here, repeating the classic spirit of the kitchen design. A smaller version of the same pendant is hung in the window, creating a cohesive look.

Note the ups and downs of your existing space. Perhaps your kitchen operates just fine, but the finishes are long past their prime. Or maybe you're planning a soup-to-nuts renovation and have no idea how to retool the space. Be prepared to share with the kitchen designer what you like and what you hope to change to give a firm place to start. How to find your kitchen style

This style isn't significant, other than I wanted to make a couple points about lighting. Where possible and appropriate, I'd prefer LED to minimize elec and maintenance costs. Particularly do not want halogen or specialty bulbs that are difficult to get/replace. Probably some in the kitchen, but particularly in the dinnng room, there will be accent pieces that will require highlighting, e.g. Persian rug on the wall, glass "art plates" that I think would benefit from specific "light attention" rather than general overall room light.
