The Importance of Living Room Lighting

Many underestimate the importance of good lighting in the living room. Often used for reading, watching television, and entertaining guests, your living room needs to have the best lighting for the many tasks performed here! So what makes good living room lighting? Basically, create an atmosphere that uses different kinds of light at various levels for a warm, inviting space.

Ambient lighting in the form of chandeliers and wall-mounted sconces can add the right decorative touch as well as subtly illuminate the room. Chandeliers not only fill that void between the living room space and ceiling, but also can soften shadows and serve as the room’s main source of light. Wall-mounted sconces are usually installed at eye level in pairs of two and complement areas such as the fireplace.
