Hi there, I agree with a lot of the suggestions above. Consider the textures, colours and finishes of your furnishings and artwork and think of the pendants as an opportunity to reiterate some of these. So for instance, if you have some black metal in the coffee table legs, you may bring in some of that in the kitchen pendants and look for say glass pendants with black fixtures. Coloured pendants are fun but they can date a lot quicker - bring in colour in the room through artwork, cushions and accessories.

Have you also considered not using pendant lights at all? You have the down lights well placed and it allows a clear view across the room. But if you did go with pendants, I would only do 3 to be able to keep them in a straight line. I think it would be too busy with a 4th above the other part of the counter. I prefer the 1st pendants, the white and oak, to help brighten the look. Good luck! Lighting can be a difficult thing to decide on.

For those interested - as expected, the pendants were t going to work on the left side of the vanity due to proximity to the shower... our electrician actually suggested three pinhole/mini recessed down lights spaced over the vanity for task lighting. I think they should look nice and minimal and not clash with our larger surface mounted down lights. Anyway, will post an update pic when it’s all done! Thanks again everyone for your comments. :-)

Two issues -- The middle size looks 'about right' and approx 40cm diameter ( approx 2/3rds the size of the larger one ) . But I don't think it suits many modern styles -- a beach inspired place with say white woven wallpaper or seagrass style flooring or some distressed furniture would be complemented by this , but a modern build with say painted walls doesn't do anything with this style IMO . Go classier rather than laid-back would be my advice , and that would depend on the decor . And thinking about things , one 'trick' I used in a commercial building I own was 5 polished copper shades up an L shaped stairway -- the ceiling was flat , so nearly 5 metres 'up' at the base , and I used 28cm ones with the biggest round clear LED bulbs ( 8Watt ) I could get , all hung on that oldstyle '1940's iron' type cord , so they were all 2.6metres above the stair below -- it created that 'going up' visual effect . One large light ( especially say 4 metres above the deck ) won't give that effect .
