Everyone seems to be buying copper pendants! I like some more geometric ones though, like houzz shared on their instrgam page.

here is one that might work I dont think all timbers need to match exactly and that some contrast can actually help (*not just colours that are close)

Like the previous comments it depends on use and the design of the light fitting itself. Also if the light has a narrow beam it may need to sit higher to throw a wider beam to light up the area you need lit up. Generally you would put it above eye level so that it doesn't obscure your view when standing. More often than not it is just a matter of where you think it looks best, most pendant lights have good adjustment so before its installed have the electrician hold it up for you at different heights and see what looks best.

Some of the Laura Ashley ceiling pendants/chandeliers could work. http://www.laura-ashley.com.au/homewares/category/lighting/ceiling-pendants.html?___SID=U

I prefer a simple fan and light, these use little power and are very quiet, comes in Black or white https://www.beaconlighting.com.au/sainz-132cm-dc-fan-with-light-in-white And a lamp on a side board where the wall plugs are would add more feature light

Hi there,

I think it's a great idea to introduce some feature lighting here. The chairs are making quite a statement against all the white and it would be lovely to balance that a little with lighting. As you have a lot of white and also rectilinear shapes, I'd lean towards organic shapes and materials for your lights. You could consider having more than one pendant light and create either a cluster, a row of 3, or else a long light. Here's some ideas.
