The perfect chandelier for your bedroom

Lighting for the bedroom will largely depend on whether this room is a place to relax or it has several functional areas. If a house or apartment allows you to acquire a room for each lesson separately, then the bedroom in such a house should be lit by soft diffused light. The space, divided into zones, involves separate lighting devices for each of them.

Any of the described options involves carefully thought-out decisions when choosing lighting products. Particular attention should be paid to the central element of lighting - the chandelier.

Chandelier in the bedroom interior

In order for the chandelier to fit perfectly in the bedroom, it must meet four criteria:

• ability to produce soft diffused glow;
• possibility of regulation with one hand;
• the ability to control brightness;
• device functionality.

Such a lighting device owes most of its properties to the design and material of the lampshade. Frosted glass or fabric does an excellent job of diffusing the rays. The effect of the play of light will be provided by crystal decorative elements.

High ceilings of the bedroom will allow the use of classic design chandeliers with horns. Cascading lamps and chandeliers in old styles with artificial candles will be appropriate here. Miniature chandeliers recessed in suspended ceilings or false lights will help illuminate a room with a low ceiling.

The starting point for choosing a chandelier should be the overall style of the bedroom. The classic direction in the design of the room involves the use of luxurious chandeliers with crystal pendants. The chic look of the lamp will emphasize the general mood of the boudoir.

Oriental style allows you to use a paper lantern on a wooden frame as a chandelier. This element will harmoniously combine with a wooden screen decorated with fabric. Patterns in the form of dragons, sakura branches and hieroglyphs perfectly complement the image.

Country style involves the installation of a lamp made of forged fittings. Alternatively, simpler bronze colored materials can be used. Here you can also apply wood products or wicker from vines. The textile design of such chandeliers is welcome, as this is a great way to diffuse light in the bedroom in the right way.

Solid chandeliers of simple shapes, complemented by chrome details, decorate the bedroom, decorated in modern styles: modern, hi-tech, minimalism.

Some of the above models of lighting fixtures give their owners a lot of trouble in care. The most practical in this part are Murano glass chandeliers that fit tightly to the ceiling. The simple shape of the chandelier makes it easy to brush dust off with a rag.

Designer products made in the form of fancifully curved branches will add mystery to the bedroom, as well as other elements of floristry. The irregular shape of the ceiling, combining rounded shapes and soft lines, will convey this “soft” mood to the entire interior and will allow you to achieve a sense of harmony and peace.

The location of the chandelier can affect the mood of the inhabitants of the room. A massive metal or wooden structure, located directly above the bed, can have a depressing effect on whoever lay down to rest. In especially suspicious people, this situation can even cause problems with sleep. If there is no other place for a chandelier, then it is better to use light elegant designs, and it is better to place a marker lamp at some distance from the bed.

The large bedroom requires the use of elongated chandelier models with several lamps in a row. Alternatively, you can use several identical chandeliers. The advantage of this design will be the ability to include only parts of the entire abundance of lamps. Then the light will be dim. And if you need brighter lighting, you can light all the devices at the same time.

Compatibility with other lighting fixtures

In the case when the room performs not only the functions of a bedroom, then in addition to the chandelier, it is better to use additional lamps. Conventionally, they can be divided into:

• main (central, general);
• local
• decorative.

By placing various spots and sconces in the room in the necessary sequence, you can separate one zone from another, while achieving feelings of isolation.

As a central lamp, you can use a chandelier. If the room is large, then there may be several such chandeliers. These lights will be central.

If the bedroom has a dressing table or chest of drawers, then it can be illuminated with directional rays from two sides. A large mirror can be decorated around the perimeter with an LED strip, the color of which is chosen at the discretion of the owner.

The recreation area, where the bed is located directly, can be decorated with table lamps on bedside tables or wall sconces, selected in accordance with the general style of the room. If the room has another corner for relaxation, for example, an easy chair, then next to it it will be appropriate to put a floor lamp.

An unusual decorative element may be a lighting device made in the form of a screen covered with fabric. This element is more like a night lamp, as the light from it flows especially soft, which will not allow you to read or do other similar things.

A positive feature of zoning with a lighting device is that you can use one area without noticing the rest, in which the light does not light. For those who love variety, you can decorate each zone in your own style, using the appropriate lights.

Having correctly selected and positioned the chandelier in the bedroom, it is possible to highlight its advantages and hide the disadvantages. This will help to spend time in such a room with the greatest comfort and benefit.
