Chandeliers in the interior

Even the most unprepossessing and dark room, without some expensive repairs, can be completely transformed, if you correctly select lighting for it. Chandeliers in the interior perform several functions - lighting and decorative. At design of premises today use both modern designs, and classical plafones with pendants.

As a rule, the chandelier is a certain final chord in the design of the room, and it should be selected based on many important points - the overall stylistics, the color range, the size of the room and. For example, if your living room is limited in size, then a massive forged chandelier in the interior will look in it is not entirely appropriate. And, conversely, in a huge bedroom it will be difficult to see a small nondescript lamp on the ceiling.

How to choose the right chandelier size?

In order not to be mistaken with the choice of the size of the chandelier, first of all, you need to know the exact dimensions of the room, namely its width and length. Each of these values ​​should be divided by 30, and then the resulting numbers add up. The result should be multiplied by 2.5 - this is the approximate diameter of your future chandelier, which should look perfect in the interior.

The length of the lighting fixture should be selected according to the height of the ceiling in the room, with a space of at least two or more meters from the floor to the chandelier.

Chandelier color and style of performance

However, the size is not everything. Important in the interior of the apartment is the color of the chandelier and the style of its execution. Classic chandeliers in the interior with hundreds of sparkling pendants look ridiculous in the middle of the premises, decorated in the style of high-tech, art deco and other modern design options. A massive luminaire with Venetian glass is more suitable for French or Italian interior, and for metal art deco metal is more suitable - chrome or nickel elements combined with decorative glass. In this case, the shape of the chandelier can be the most unexpected( see photo).

Country style, or rustic interior is not combined with some cumbersome and pretentious designs. It is enough to hang on the walls several lamps, stylized for street lights, or to invent something using the details of wire, rope elements, sacking. Not bad in this interior will look and forged chandeliers. Natural materials( wood, bamboo) are suitable for exotic styles in the interior.

Crystal chandeliers in the interior - a separate topic for conversation. It is worth mentioning only that designs with crystal balls, bowls, lanterns, under the rules of style, favorably emphasize the classic interior and noble taste of the owner of the house.

Chandelier in the interior of the kitchen

Do not forget about such an important place in the apartment, like a kitchen where the whole family spends enough time together. As for a comfortable meal, and for a pleasant conversation over a cup of tea, proper lighting is very important, so no matter how beautiful the lamp is, it should also be functional. In addition, the kitchen chandelier should be chosen as practical as possible so that it can be easily removed and washed at any time. If the plafond is made of high-quality plastic, it will be enough only occasionally to wipe it with special napkins.

Regardless of the color scheme and style of the interior in the kitchen, the fixtures that are selected for this room should not be too dark, otherwise use light bulbs with increased power. As for the chandelier style for the kitchen, in most cases it should correspond to the overall design.
