How large a light for Foyer Lighting - Updated
Comments (5)Just about any chandelier, semi-flush mount of flush-mount light will work there. You don't need much light in a foyer, since it is not a work or living space, so really the only factor is sizing it so it doesn't look too small or too large for the space. I'd probably go with a medium-sized chandelier for that space, one about 2 feet in diameter and hanging down about 2-3 feet; I'd also put it on a dimmer if it will be on for any significant amount of the day. But that's just me. Go with what looks good to you....See MoreIsland Lighting using small 'foyer' light
Comments (4)Those will look awesome. I say go for it... I used 2 foyer pendant lights for my island about the same size and it looks nice. I do have a very high ceiling over the island - 17 foot vaulted ceiling. Several people use foyer sized pendants for the island. Love that dining light fixture!...See MoreHelp with Mid-Century Foyer lighting
Comments (6)Only drop it down as low as the center of that window above the door. I would consider adding something with some round shape since everything in this space already has straight lines. Also bc it is the main light for the entry and what looks like to the lower stairwell as well, you will want something that gets the light down to that level of the steps. Is it dark now on the lower level with that light on? I would avoid using the overplayed "midmod" lights on the market right now and look for something more authentic if you are keeping most of the esthetic I see here. They actually used a lot of round shapes, something to consider....See Morefoyer lighting ideas?
Comments (3)Agreed. Hard to recommend without seeing your furniture in the space and how you have it decorated. I assume these are not your belongings as they aren't MCM boho....See MoreRyan
