There are tips to choosing a good lighting for our home or decoration place. Consider the below when selecting a fixture that suits the proportions of your room and the style of your home.

When choosing a chandelier for most spaces, one general rule of thumb will give you a good guide on choosing a size:

As an example, a 24-inch diameter chandelier would be appropriate for a room size of 14 (width) by 10 (length) feet.

If your light will be centered on a seating area and not the entire room, use the approximate length and width dimensions of that area instead of the entire space. Another way to calculate this is to add the length the light will be from the two closest walls and then double it to get your approximate chandelier diameter in inches.

Now that you have the width and diameter of the fixture, you’ll want to choose the vertical dimensions of the fixture (not the height above the ground just yet, but the actual top-to-bottom size of the unit itself).

To choose the vertical dimension of a chandelier, the classic rule is to take the room height (in feet) and multiple it by 2.5 to 3 to get a good range (in inches) for the vertical proportions of the light.

So if your room has an 8-foot ceiling, this would mean your chandelier should be roughly 20 to 24 inches top to bottom. (8 feet x 2.5 = 20 feet; 8 feet x 3 = 24 feet. Convert to inches to get 20 to 24 inches.)

As for the height you hang the chandelier above the floor, you’ll want to go at least 6 feet 6 inches so that nobody is likely to bump their head. A standard of 7 feet above the floor works for most spaces with a ceiling higher than 8 feet.

A chandelier over a dining table has some special considerations.

First, it should be low enough to create an intimate atmosphere but still not in anyone’s way. Hanging it with the bottom 30 to 34 inches above the table is a good rule. The chandelier should not extend wider than the table. The idea here is that the lighting is NOT low enough that someone would bump their head against. Lengthwise, a chandelier will ideally be one-half to two-thirds of the length of your table to create a nice balance of proportions.
