Choosing the perfect light fixture isn’t just about finding a design you love—it’s about ensuring it fits your space both physically and functionally. At ROOM, we’re here to guide you through the process, making it simple, stress-free, and enjoyable.
Here’s how to navigate lighting size, design, and functionality—and how ROOM can help you find the perfect piece.
Lighting design is as much about personality as function. Think of each fixture as a “flavor”—some are bold and sculptural, others sleek and understated. Your goal is to identify designs that resonate with your style and taste.
How to Start:
Browse ROOM’s lighting collection online and save the designs that catch your eye—don’t overthink it!
Narrow it down to 3–6 favorites for the space you’re working on.
Think of this as selecting the “flavors” you love before diving into the details.
Once you’ve identified your favorite designs, reach out to ROOM with a few key details. This helps us tailor our recommendations to your space and needs.
What to Share:
Photos of Your Space: Include images of where the fixture will go to give us a sense of scale, proportions, and surroundings.
Room Dimensions: Provide the length, width, and ceiling height of the room, as well as the area you want the fixture to fill.
Existing Lighting: Let us know about any additional light sources like recessed cans or sconces.
Preferences: Specify if you’d like the fixture to hang vertically or horizontally, how much of the space it should fill, and whether brightness is a priority.
These details help us make informed suggestions that align with your vision.
Size and placement are as critical as the design itself. A fixture that’s too small may feel underwhelming, while one that’s too large can dominate the room.
Dining Tables: The fixture should be approximately two-thirds the width of the table and hang 30–36 inches above it.
Living Rooms: For central chandeliers, the fixture should fill a noticeable portion of the space without feeling oversized.
Ceiling Height:
For standard 8-foot ceilings, keep the drop height modest.
For higher ceilings, opt for a longer drop or a vertically-oriented fixture.
Primary light sources should offer sufficient brightness (check lumen output).
Decorative fixtures can prioritize ambiance over intensity, especially if other light sources support the space.
Tell us what you love, share your space details, and ROOM will handle the rest.
Matching Aesthetics: We’ll help you determine which of your favorite designs works best in your space.
Scaling the Fixture: Using your photos and dimensions, we’ll recommend the ideal size and proportions.
Ensuring Functionality: We’ll guide you on brightness and suggest complementary lighting if needed.
Why This Approach Works:
You don’t need to stress over technical specs—just share your vision, and we’ll refine the details.
By collaborating with ROOM, you’ll get a fixture that looks stunning, fits perfectly, and performs as required.
Layered Lighting: Even the most striking chandelier benefits from additional layers of light. Dimmers and complementary fixtures enhance versatility.
Orientation: Some designs work better vertically or horizontally. If you’re unsure, we’ll help you decide.
Details Matter: The more information you provide—ceiling height, room dimensions, existing lighting—the better our recommendations.
Lighting is an investment, and the right piece can transform your space. At ROOM, we simplify the process so you can choose with confidence.
