Lighting ideas for your living room ceiling
Welcome to lighting ideas for your living room ceiling. From watching TV to enjoying a hobby or throwing a party, there’s a lot going on in this room. You need a mix of lighting for your different activities and to help create different moods. And ceiling lights can be a strong part of that mix.
Why do you need lights?
Lights do different things in your home. They can light up the room so you and your eyes feel comfortable and you can find the remote controls. They can light up specific things or spaces, like pictures on your wall or your sofa area. And they can help create and change the mood in an instant.
Lighting up your whole room
For things like tidying up or vacuuming, you need even light throughout your room. A light fairly high up, in about the middle of your room, can do the trick. A pendant, a ceiling lamp or a chandelier, for example. If you can dim it, you can turn it down at other times to give a soft, cosy light.
Lighting up a special area
Why not hang a pendant or even some decorative LED light bulbs over your sofa area or dining table? You’ll get light for the things you do there, and you’ll create a cosy room within a room feeling. Plus, if you can dim the light, you can set the right mood in an instant.
Smart lighting gives you more
You can dim and change the tone of the light of smart LED bulbs like these. So you can have brighter, colder light to set the table and warmer light for dinner. IKEA smart lighting is full of possibilities. You can even set up different lighting combinations or “scenes”, and save them in an app, ready for instant use.
What can you do with a low ceiling?
If your ceiling is low, a ceiling lamp is a good way to spread light throughout your room. It’s best to avoid a chandelier or a pendant that hangs too low down in the middle of the room where you walk. A pendant hanging down over a desk, table or coffee table can work well.
What about a high ceiling?
If you have a higher living room ceiling, you don’t have to worry about hitting your head on the light. So a chandelier or ceiling lamp or a pendant will all work well in the middle of your room. You can go for bigger pendants or why not hang up more than one?
Highlight the things you love
Want to light up art on your wall, a display of your favourite objects on a sideboard, or a bookcase? Ceiling spotlights where you can adjust the direction of the light are great. The reflected light can add atmosphere to your room, too.
Let your personality shine
Why not make a personal style statement with a pendant that stands out? These ones make a big impact even when they’re not lit. Some open out and change shape when you pull the string!
Lots of what you like!
When it comes to lighting ideas for your living room ceiling, sometimes more is more! If you like the look of the pendant, why hang up just one?
