If you have ever shopped online for light fixtures you are probably well aware of the many different options on the market today. You can quite literally shop from thousands of different options. Knowing what kind of light fixture you want can be an intimidating decision to make. The first thing that you will need to do is narrow down what kind of lighting style you are going for. Your answer to this question will most likely differ throughout your home. Some light fixtures you may just want to be functional while others you want to make a unique statement. If you are wanting a few unique ideas Peterkin Electric has some different options for you to consider.

Where to Place Chandeliers & Pendant Lights

One trend that has been popular for a few years now is to use chandeliers in atypical places. Most of the time chandeliers are used for entry ways or dining rooms. Modern designers are beginning to use chandeliers in other places as well. You may think about putting a chandelier in your bathroom. Having a chandelier in your bathroom will add some elegance and glamour to your bathroom. Another idea that people have started incorporating into their homes is pendant lights in unique places. Pendant lights can make super interesting and practical bedside lamps. This is a particularly great option if you are going for nice clean lines in your home. Not having the clutter of a lamp on top of your nightstand makes your room look nice and crisp. Pendant lights are available in an extremely wide variety of styles, colors, sizes, and lengths. You should not have a hard time finding a pendant light that will help accent your personal taste. Pendant lights are also fantastic options in your kitchen. Instead of putting just canned lights above your kitchen countertop or bar, try some pendant lights. Pendant lights can help really make your kitchen look warm and inviting for you and your family.

Light as Art in Home

Many people have begun using light as a type of art in their homes. Not only does the fixture add light to your room, it also adds interest and design elements to your home. Instead of having a painting on your wall, try a light fixture. The three-dimensional design element helps your room really pop. Some people use a single light fixture to accomplish this while others use multiple light fixtures to get the look they are trying to create.
The last idea that we want to share with you today is to try hanging light fixtures in unconventional places. You can add some fun to your walls by angling your light fixtures in nontraditional ways. When people use this option many times they choose smaller light fixtures and install numerous fixtures to the wall to help complete the effect they are going for.
