The choice between wall lamps and chandeliers depends on various factors, including the style of the furniture , the availability of natural light , the size of the rooms and the function of the spaces .
Lighting should be consistent with the design of the house . Wall lights are ideal for rooms with rich and detailed furniture, while chandeliers can add character to more minimalist and large rooms. Different styles suggest different solutions:
Modern and industrial : dark metal chandeliers or wall lights with a geometric design.
Classic and elegant : glass or crystal chandeliers , wall lamps with wicker, linen or bamboo lampshades .
Analyzing the distribution of natural light helps to avoid excessively bright or, on the contrary, too dark spots. If a room receives a lot of sunlight, a soft light given by wall lamps may be sufficient, while in rooms less exposed to the sun, a multi-branch chandelier can ensure uniform lighting.
High ceilings : an imposing chandelier ensures proper diffusion of light.
Low ceilings or small rooms : it is better to opt for wall or ceiling lights, which avoid visual clutter.
Living area (kitchen, living room, dining room) : the chandelier is the perfect choice for powerful central lighting .
Sleeping area (bedroom, corridors, bathroom) : wall lights create a relaxing atmosphere and are perfect for visual comfort in the evening.
Today, LED technology offers modern and efficient solutions for the home. Among the most popular trends are:
LED strips and recessed spotlights , for discreet and elegant lighting.
Light cuts in the plasterboard , which create scenographic and minimalist effects.
Track systems , perfect for combining multiple light sources in a single solution.
