Home Decorating Lighting Design Dilemma

Lighting in converted formal dining room

6 years ago

We are ditching our formal dining room and using it as either a kids play area or office. I need help on finding good ceiling lights for the room that will make make it feel more modern and casual. Please send me some pictures of what you would put there. Don’t mind the mess in the picture; we just moved in.

Pot lights to light the whole space LEDs in 4000K would be good for both purposes but IMO a play room as you enter a house is never pleasing.

Our lighting could be a great addition to your home. We do custom lighting so we will be able to work to feed your needs and wants. Different amount/design/size of pendants, and size of canopy and overall fixture height etc. We also do 3D drawing before so you can have an idea of what it would look like before committing! Feel free to visit onhttps://shakuff.com/ or our instagram @shakuff_ :)
