Lighting Placement

March 19, 2025 by LuxeSpecs

A guide for a dining room chandelier is to hang it 60-66″ from the floor. Bathroom sconces are typically 66″ from the finished floor. If you have a console table in your design, add the outlet 28″ high from the finished floor to eliminate cords showing. Light switches placed 1-1/2″ – 2″ from the door casing won’t interfere with art.

A Lamp As a Piece of Art

November 4, 2020 by LuxeSpecs

Add a new dimension to your boring area with a single lamp! These lamps will give the entire space a special glow. Fizi Table Lamp by Articolo Lighting, WaWa F by Catellani + Smith or Etch Web Pendant by Tom Dixon. And you can move a lamp from one special location to another! For example, as the days grow shorter, your interior space needs to adjust for longer evenings. Or bring these works of art out for festive occasions. You could also surprise your house guests with an addition in their bedroom or sitting area.

Lighting

hauser lighting blogLighting directs the eye and should be layered.  Overhead lighting should be dimmed. Then add lamp light or task lighting for an inviting balance.  If it is dark outside, the only objects anyone will notice are the ones that are lit, so an entirely different ambience is achieved with control of what is accentuated.

I have lots of lighting examples on my Pinterest boards.
