The proper lighting in the dining room

A proper light fixture for the dining room

A proper lighting in your dining room is extremely important and should be chosen carefully. And I’m speaking here for all kinds of lights not just pendant lights. You seriously need a suitable light for your dining area.

The perfect light for the dining room should preferably be dimmable, quite soft, and equally diffused over the table.

It should not also be too direct to annoy those sitting at the table. It is therefore a smart idea to choose only lamps that are deep and shielded at the bottom.

If it is a wall-mounted lamp, make sure to hang it at a proper height not too high or too low.

How I have already mentioned, it is also a smart idea to have a dimmer that helps you to control the degree of light depending on whether you are sitting working at the table, or you are enjoying yourself with good dinner meal.

You can choose your pendant lamp from a huge selection of lamps, no matter if it is an expensive crystal chandelier or a simple, modern lamp.

But when you are going to opt for a pendant above a table, think about what you are going to use the dining table for. Only after that and choose the light fixture, which is suitable for this.

If it is not a massive crystal chandelier, you can opt for more than one pendant lamp above the table.

Lamps above the table that direct the light down onto the working table surface

If you have a dual use for the dining table – dinner and for home office or sometimes, for board games – you need to get a good lamp with bright light onto the tabletop.

So, you need a ceiling light fixture that directs the light downwards, preferably with a shade to not disperse the light. Again, having a dimmer will gradually dimming the light giving you flexibility in the amount of necessary light.

Lamps above the table that also provide light to the living room

Sometimes, you need a larger amount of light, especially when the dining room is in combination with the living room. So, the ceiling lamp above the table should contribute to the general light of the open space. Therefore, you should consider a lamp that provides light in all directions.

These are typically lamps with lampshades or lamps integrated in opal shades.
