For sure no more of those useless edison bulbs and the new chandeleir needs to hund much lower. How about something like this to mimic the shape of the ones in the kitchen but a bit different This is from Wayfair and is LED so a much better type of light

If you are NOT putting a table there, is this more a reading and hanging out area?

I'd ditch the chandelier entirely and install some pot lights to wash the walls. And then I'd add a table lamp at each end of the bench.

Hello Ryan! Have you checked out West Ninth Vintage fixtures? We create a variety of farmhouse chandeliers. I have attached our [chandeliers [(https://www.houzz.com/products/chandeliers-prbr1-br~t_607~a_10-17998123)ideabook for you to take a look at how our customers have decorated their spaces with our fixtures. Let us know if we could help!

Consider a small modern ceiling fan with light and, since you're not planning on putting a table beneath it, choose one that hugs the ceiling more than the chandelier you now have. (You can choose the length of the downpipe that holds the fan in place and hides the wires to determine how low the fan/light hangs.)

With it's close proximity to the kitchen, a ceiling fan in this space can even help move the heat from the kitchen out all those windows on a hot summer day.

Like the windows and all that natural light and your choice of blinds. Wouldn't add anything more to the windows unless you to for privacy.

You mentioned you aren't putting a (eating) table here but are adding a cushion atop the bench. You might consider adding a small (preferably rolling) tray table against the wall on the left so you can pull it over in front of the bench as needed for a portable "desk".

If its going to be a reading area, I'd remove the chandelier and get a nice floor lamp. Some pot lights to wash the walls and you'll have a nice little nook. I'm talking about lamps like the ones mentioned here

I would remove the current fixture in that breakfast area, and consider some sconces for the side walls of the window seat. Window seat needs cushions and pillows to make it inviting.

if you don't replace the overhead light you have with something else -- a ceiling fan/light or another kind of overhead light -- you have the overhead fixture to remove and a hole in the ceiling to patch/cover.

Wall lights mean rewiring or, as with lamps, cords being seen. Floor lamps, especially odd shaped ones, can be a stumble/bump hazard and visually shrink an already small space.

If you want lamp light for this nook, and provided there already exist outlets for the cords, consider tall thin lamps with small shades that will not crowd your elbow room and that can sit atop the two built ins beside the bench -- a decision that can easily be changed should you want something else later.
