Help me pick a light fixture for my living room! Please!
Comments (12)I would be inclined to go with an unobtrusive light since it's the living room and anything too dramatic or a hanging pendant may interfere with your peripheral vision (or otherwise be an annoyance) when you're watching TV, etc. Also, being so near the sliding door, the wind may cause a hanging pendant to swing quite a bit which will cause the lighting to be constantly shifting and changing which I would personally find annoying. I'd go with something simple and subtle, but look at getting a tall standing lamp for the corner near the sofa (or possibly at the other end of the floating TV cabinet). In terms of warming up the apartment, I think you need something on the bare walls. A smaller picture above the floating TV cabinet will help to take the focus off your TV. A larger art work behind the sofa will also help to add some colour and personality, especially if it picks up some hues from your sofa. If you don't like the little Buddha statue, I would look at adding one or two other items that you do like (perhaps picking up colours from the wall art) and making a little vignette. A couple of colourful cushions and a storage solution for the wires, games console, etc on the floor would also help to bring everything together. Something as simple as a woven basket under the floating TV cabinet might help to keep the games console, etc in place unless it is in use....See MorePaint Colour and Lighting Fixtures
Comments (1)first store the dead animals the out of sight and consider Antique USA (white with a grey base) for all the painted walls, plain ceiling white for the plaster ceilings, white semi gloss for all the painted architraves and skirting boards and keep the timber ceilings and timber doors but replace the floral door knobs with plain satin chrome and use simple flat white and satin chrome ceiling fixtures in all the low ceilings and simple pendants in the high ceilings (good variety of both available in major hardware stores) and it would be worthwhile to replace the patterned row of tiles with plain white ( a textured white tile if you can't match the colour) and clean the blockwork walls and the floors look good...See MoreThree down lights and no ideas!
Comments (7)Hi Cassandra, That's the perfect height and depth to display an artwork. Noting your classic Cole&Son wallpaper opposite, I think you might like our treescapes, and I'm attaching an image of one recessed in a niche that a Houzzer included with their review: the lighting you have interacts with the artwork to cast shadows and create extra wow factor! We create each of our artworks bespoke, in the dimensions required and the colourway desired - click here to view options in dimensions that would suit your space.

Comments (10)Thanks for your ideas!! @pottsy99 Hmm good point about the gap up the top! This is a recent purchase, so I bought it this way!! Including it’s very neutral look :-) It does need the space above the oven range (I think?) as it’s not vented out the wall or anything. But never thought about the gap being a waste of space or making lights look odd! The greenery is simply because I have too many plants and too little space 😅 @siriuskey I purchased the propagation hanger from amazon! I agree, I thought a long bar style might be the way to go too.....See More- 7 years agolast modified: 7 years ago
