I would say it is not the place for that and it will look like "I wanted to hang a pendant here" The house doesnt even call for it really.

I would look at a mica stlye flush mount or something with interest. https://www.amazon.com/Natural-Collection-Ceiling-Light-Fixture/dp/B000292FR0?th=1

That’s what I was afraid of. Interestingly enough, I have thought about the opposite too, which is recessed lighting.

yes to that

There would need to be more hight for a pendant. not just because of the door issue, but its going to hang too low no matter what. This is just not the place for a pendant.

Before you settle on a recessed fixture you should take a look at the framing above the existing light.

We think you'd better pay attention to ceiling lights or wall lights, because pendant lights can interfere with free movement. What do you think about these wall lamps?

you can put in an led wafer

Love those wall lights… are you suggesting just wall lights instead of ceiling?

do not attempt to get wall lights into that stone, $$$$$ and you do not have a modern house.

Yes, we think two wall lamps will be enough :)

Follow dark-sky guidelines for outdoor lighting. A recessed fixture would meet those guidelines best as its light would be directed downward onto the porch where it belongs and not into the yard or onto the walls. Those wall lamps are the opposite.

"lighting should

• Only be on when needed
• Only light the area that needs it
• Be no brighter than necessary
• Minimize blue light emissions
• Eliminate upward-directed light"

We can offer another option for wall lamps that will illuminate the stairs. We think it will be a good option for any of the wall lamps we offer.

Or something like this one. What do you think?

Mirodemi is a very persistent salesperson, while the style insisted on is so inappropriate for the home. Why? Sales bonus for posts on Houzz?

Sorry. We didn't mean to offend anyone. We simply express our vision and give recommendations.

@MIRODEMI Are you a bot? nothing on this house is calling for what you are suggesting.

No, we aren`t a bot. Sorry if we were wrong.

“We” must be AI . . . the sentient Google robot ;D

I write "we" because I write on behalf of our entire Mirodemi team.
