Hi mkuyekawa,

Sure, pendants are one possible addition to that space. With that expanse of white ceiling it could work well to use pendants that provide uplight (like the one pictured in your Entry, to allow for reflected in-direct lighting to bounce back into the space. Hubbardton Forge and Feiss are a few sources to get you started for fixtures. Let your personal style guide your selections.

You could also consider custom cove lighting (along the trim of the loft just below the railing) utilizing LED tape or iLight Plexineon. This could be built to provide uplight &/or downlight.

Another alternative would be a line of sconces mounted to the loft edge (like attached image, using 'library' sconces). Using sconces that pivot could then direct light down to your furniture or up to the ceiling.

Good luck!

I love the high ceiling, it is a very dramatic space and I think a large chandelier/pendant light over the sofa/coffee table area would look great.

I don't see an existing electric junction box in the ceiling in the photo. If you wanted to have one installed in the ceiling, it might be a costly project since they would run the wiring behind the sheet rock on the ceiling and need to install a switch somewhere in the wall. In addition, if you have popcorn ceilings (can't really tell from the image) and they need to cut away at parts of the ceiling to install the electrics, you will never get an exact match of the ceiling texture and you would probably need to have the entire ceiling painted. An easier and cheaper route would be to go with exposed conduits, which is probably not the look you want since it's not an industrial space - also whether or not this violates construction code in your area.

i would recommend a chandelier as that large area needs filled! try here for some examples that personally i think would suit best !

What sort of lights were intended for this room? I can't see the other direction and there's only the Christmas tree peaking out on the edge of the picture, but I don't see any lights in the room itself. The fixture in the entry is insufficient. Are any of the outlets switched to accommodate a floor lamp? Is there an outlet under the sofa to accommodate a table lamp on the end table? Or did the builder not provide any ceiling lighting and no switched/convenient outlets for lamps?

We are offering an extensive collection of contemporary and modern designs and classic staples that will be sure to light up any room. We have a different type of floor lamp, ceiling lamps, table lamps.
