My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Great Room lighting heights

5 years ago

We have a great room with 16' ceilings - we are in the process of getting a large round chandelier for the living room area and a linear for over the table. The two lights are in line with each other, not in different corners of the room. We are trying to determine the height of each. Do they have to be hung at the same height because they are in line with each other? Tall ceilings really create for some issues we didn't think of when we built the house.
