Modern Chandeliers
When redecorating the living room, new lighting will provide a focal point for the room, and brighten it as well. While lamps are great to light the corners, a modern ceiling chandelier will light a greater portion of your room.
This serves to be more eco-friendly as well, only requiring one light, rather than several floor lamps. Your room is more effectively lit from above.Modern chandeliers also provides a place for the eye to rest, rather than having visitors focus on empty white ceiling space.
Modern chandeliers are available in many different types of designs, finishes and sizes. If you’re looking for a chandelier that matches your floor lamps, you may wish to coordinate lamp shade colours.
Contemporary chandeliers can also have lampshades, like floor lamps. They may have one large shade, or several smaller fabric shades above a “candle style” type of light. Lampshades are available in standard black, white, and grey, and there are even translucent ones, to let most of the light shine through.
Some droplet pendant styles may give the illusion that there’s a lampshade, but there really isn’t, it’s just part of the overall framework design.
Multi light candle style chandeliers are another popular style, but they’re updated to not look like anything from the 1970s. They usually have solid geometric rectangular lines, with glass covers over the electric candles.
Silver toned chandeliers are a popular style. Special candle flame bulbs are used in this style of lighting.
If you still wish to buy gold toned chandeliers, they are still available. Silver tone seems to be the more popular colour choice, though. But if your room suits a warmer look, gold tone may be better.
There are also other colours available such as matte black, resembling wrought iron, for a really modern looking room.
Most modern chandeliers consist of several lights, with drop pendants. Drop pendants may be made from glass or crystal. Some lights are incorporated into part of the drop pendant part. There’s nearly limitless design possibilities when choosing a new chandelier for your room.
Be sure to take time when choosing a new chandelier for your home. You may think that one chandelier is the perfect choice, then suddenly see another one you like.
If you can’t decide between two options, remember that every room in your home can contain a chandelier, even the bathroom.
When choosing a modern chandelier, consider how the light will fall in the room. Candle style chandeliers will provide overall lighting for the room. For styles where the light cascades down from the pendants, light may fall directly below. This type may be more suitable for reading nooks or seating areas.
Modern chandeliers are nothing like those clunky old styles from the 70s. Today’s styles are elegant, and designed to provide a maximum of lighting from even the smaller styles. Take your time hunting for the perfect modern chandelier in the UK.
Once your order has arrived, and you’ve installed it on your wall or ceiling, you’ll be surprised at how it lights up your life.
