Decide Which Rooms You Plan To Upgrade

Take a stroll through your home or office and see what rooms need an upgrade. If you’ve got outdated fixtures, or ones that simply no longer match new decor, you may want to consider a switch. 

Also, take a look around the room to see if you’re missing a particular fixture that could really add to the place. For example, if you have a large dining room with no wall lights, you may want to strategically add some sconces. Or you may want to add lamps to individual offices to ensure your employees have just the right amount of light.

Consider upgrading multiple rooms at a time in order to keep cohesive design throughout your property.

Consider The Size Of The Room

When it comes to ceiling light fixtures, sizing is a key consideration. Both in terms of the width and height, as well as the amount of clearance you need between the lowest point of the fixture and the surface beneath it.

Below you’ll find some helpful guidelines for finding the right sized light fixture.

• Diameter: The diameter of any light fixture should be the sum of the length and width of the room in inches. For example, a 15 foot by 10 foot room would mean you’ll want a fixture that’s 25 inches wide. 
• Fixture Height: For fixture height, you simply take three times the height of the room in inches. For example, if your room is 15 feet high, you’ll want a fixture that’s around 45 inches tall.
• Clearance Height: When it comes to clearance height, you’ll want about 7 feet of distance from the fixture to the floor. If it’s hanging above an elevated surface like a countertop, you’ll want around 3 feet of space.

What Is The Amount Of Lighting You Need?

Last, but certainly not least, is your lighting needs. When picking out new lighting, take a look at places in the room where lighting is currently insufficient. You’ll want to fill in those dark areas with fixtures that’ll provide necessary illumination.

Also keep in mind the role that natural lighting plays in the equation. Remember to consider what your lighting needs are when the sun goes down and that bright, natural light is no longer there.
