Lighting Design Dilemma

Lighting for combined living/dining with low ceilings

7 years ago

Hi,

Wondering how you handle lighting for a combined living room/dining with 7ft ceilings. I think best to use flushmount light or led ceiling fan. Would it look better to use two fans or try to match two flushmounts lights? The combined rooms are on smaller side as it is an old cape that I'm opening up. Also, adding two marvin sliders to open the space.
