chandy would look beautiful. Do you use a fan? Because unless it's going to be directly over your bed, you really won't get the benefit from it. When it's hot, are you going to hang out in your bedroom?? prob not. I keep mine on over the bed all the time because I'm old and get hot during the nights. even in winter. (yeah, it's great.) But you're prob young and may not need that, yet. (just wait!)

does anyone here have a "fandelier"? recently came across a few of these in my search.... Would love to hear if how they function. noisy? do they really cool the room down? photo of one example in link https://www.build.com/savoy-house-6-335-fd/s1196406?&intcmp=recs~item_page.rr7~AdvancedMerchandisingStrategy~Savoy%20House~savoyhouse6335fd

A fan can reduce the feeling of hot, typically anywhere from 7 to 10 degrees. Obviously in our southern climate a fan will not be enough once summer time temperatures kick in. A fan in a room is probably not bad insurance to allow occupant that comfort choice whether to use the fan or not. Typically a ceiling mount fan is more than adequate. They come in all sizes of fan blade reach. Most small rooms a 42" fan blade ceiling mount fan is more than adequate for larger room you could install a 52" fan blade ceiling mount. Most ceiling fans come with a reversing switch that depending on how you have it set will either blow air up to the ceiling or down to the floor. Not everyone likes a ceiling fan, because if you have a home office or the room you are trying to cool is on the second floor of the structure... the fan is probably not going to do much most of the time and blowing things around is kind of annoying. If keeping utilities low are your goal: There are ways and methods to find the cool oasis you are looking for. Obviously this comes at a cost far greater than merely installing a ceiling fan. Air Conditioners are rated in SEER's this stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio. The higher the SEER rating, the less it will cost you to operate. Approximately 12 years ago 10 SEER equipment was still being sold (prior to 2006). Now the minimum SEER rating is 14 for the south. However, current SEER ratings can hit 20 SEER or higher. These systems not only are cost effective but also reduce humidity to a large extent. To the point a ceiling fan would make you too cold on most days. Comfort is a fickle beast. No two people are alike. But a home is an investment and I can guarantee when it comes time to sell that investment a well cooled home in a hot climate like 'Texas' you're more likely to find people who want to be really comfortable. This will help you sell your house, when that time comes. If you're comfortable with a fan, imagine how much more comfortable you'd be with less humidity. Single speed AC's just can't measure up to the task of humidity removal in the south. In my home, ceiling fans are more of a decoration piece... and also serve as a back up in case the AC goes down. I service the Katy, Texas area.

Agree with RL above. Make sure the recessed light are the correct type for sloped ceilings, some designs are better than others, so do some research. My electricians are lovely guys, but the standard fixtures they supply is technology from 15 years ago, so make sure to have them show you what they use way before you get to that point. I didn't realize that and had to stop the electrical work while we waited 4-5 weeks for much better quality fixtures to get delivered.
