Interior lighting, according to designers, is the final touch. With its help, you can correct any shortcomings or, on the contrary, ruin the interior.

You may hear that chandeliers are going out of fashion. In fact, it all depends on the style and purpose of the room. Here are some tips to help you avoid making a mistake.

Living room

The main condition here is to choose a bright and warm light source. Depending on the size of the room and the height of the ceilings, this can be a chic chandelier that will harmonize with the materials of the room's decoration and match other lighting fixtures.

Corridor

In this case, the lamps are selected depending on the layout of the room. If the hallway is narrow, it is better to choose an elongated model with rotating spotlights. This way you can illuminate all the corners.

Bedroom

There is no point in buying a lamp with a bright stream of light here. It should be a subdued light, soft. Therefore, a chandelier with a lampshade or glass lampshades will look great.

Children's room

The main condition is safety. The chandelier must be firmly attached and not have elements that can fall off if a ball accidentally hits it. The second condition is a bright light source.

Kitchen

The most important thing here is practicality. The chandelier will have to be washed periodically. Therefore, the fewer ornate elements it has, the better.

A great option is metal. Wooden chandeliers look stylish and cozy, but it is important that the wood is varnished, otherwise the dirt will not be easy to wash off.

Also, it is important to remember that the kitchen often has several lighting zones. It would be nice if they all fit together with one common idea.
