Pendants pack a big punch in any room. They aften seen in kitchens but can be in any room – living room, bedroom, office, etc. Since pendants hang from the ceiling, the eye goes directly to it when your walk in the room. Therefore, pendants hold a lot weight in a room and can dictate the feel of a room.
There are so many different styles and shapes of pendants that it can be an overwhelming decision. Here are a few ways to pick of the best pendant for your home.
1. Size. How big does it need to be?
If you have a large room, for the pendant to be scale, you will need a large size (or multiples filling up a large space). If the opposite is true, you will need a smaller pendant.
2. What style is the home?
The pendant should be of a similar style of the home.
3. Since the pendant is often the first thing the eyes hit in a room, use the pendant as a talking piece. Let it be unique and showcase your personality.
4. Consider other lighting in the room. To avoid the room feeling too busy, you would want to create a feeling of continuity.
5. Be purposeful. Remember it is a light and it serves a purpose of providing light.
