It has an asian feel to it. Does it work with your furniture??

Not sure, but the lamp you show here looks too small. We need more pictures of the entry way and an idea of the size of the room, ceiling height etc. Also what style is the house? What are your preferences?

Here are some images of the whole room I've posted on older post, the entry and the living room sort of become one. I'm still working on the entry way (bench, table etc). The ceiling is not very high, this way even seems a bit low.

What do you guys think of this light? looks interesting and different.

The first fixture is OK, but I'm not blown away. The second fixture will cast bizarre shadows all over the place. If that is the look you're going for, then do it. Take a look at the second picture you posted and you'll see what I'm talking about. Multiply that effect by 3 when the sun goes down.

any style recommendation Rooster?

Hiya :)

You have a nice open plan space- but the hall sort of needs more definition- and the light could really define the space without adding much else.

Your first one was nice- and it seems like you go for modern clean lines.
The second is nice but I don't feel suits your decor or space. It looks better in multiple pendants

Not sure why but I feel your taste isn't that traditional- (going on your sofa)- so no bell lamp etc
But it isn't too over luxe like a chandelier.

But going by your second choice I think you like unusual styles/shapes.

Not sure why but I feel a spherical pendant would work well for you?
It gives you volume without giving you a low hanging light and defines the space without walls.

Obv I wouldn't go that big! Lol but grey would be good, or something like this

Or even something simpler and you could add more artwork/mirror/bench as you suggested

Yes rooster you got it! That's what I was drawing towards.

Globe or drum shape will work for you (suit u?) better :)
Hope that helps

My friend got this EXTERIOR light fixture from Home Depot (about $100) and installed it in her foyer and it looks great. The light pattern that it creates on the ceiling is really cool.

How about one of these from BoConcept? This one is interesting and similar to the Nelson bubble lamp.

^ I don't particularly like the flushmount. It's too plain and utilitarian for an entry. The entry is your chance to make a statement. I'd go with a more dramatic pendant lamp. I see your furniture is more contemporary while your front door and staircase have more traditional details. Choose a fixture in the aesthetic you eventually want to take the entire house.

I like the star one

I like the star as well, going to pull the trigger and order this one.

yeah! BTW the best part about lighting IS the way it cast all the beautiful shadows. It make for great mood lighting. Having this warm amber glow everywhere... hence why people love candles. Your going to love it.
