Design Dilemma Lighting

Mix n Match Lighting

6 years ago

I’m replacing lighting in my living/kitchen area. I’ve already installed the focal piece in the dinning area and now need simpler pieces for over the kitchen sink and the living room entryway. The ceilings are sloped so both other lights need to be pendants. Below is a pic of the dinning light. Any ideas would be life saving. Thank you!

Your DR one should have been hung a bit lower . If you stay with a nice simple black metal light in the other spaces you should be fine , please get some more panels for the drapery you need to have at least 4 more panels and hang your art lower too.

It is a little large, but I like it as a statement piece. Here are some other pics. They're a little old, but give you an idea of the larger space. Stairs and entry are just on the other side of the two-way fireplace. Also will be replacing counter tops soon.

I would not put anything hanging over the sink, I would put a can in there. and for the entry, I would need to see that area...
