I think it looks good, but unless you are deliberately going for a monochromatic look, I’d consider something with more color.

It works for a retro look if that's what you're going for.

Here are some alternate options. I would also check to see what type of bulbs are in the downlights. Make sure they are not R Bulbs. A Halogen PAR bulb could provide a better quality light for the room.

I think it looks good. But I would be worried about it getting dirty.

I love it! Now you (ideally) just need something in the room providing a pop of color in some form. :)
