When
searching for the right lighting fixture
for your home, there are many factors to
consider. Begin by considering the style
and age of your home. Is it modern in design
or a traditional home built to a specific
style: Tudor, Bungalow, Victorian? If
you have an older house, begin your search
by looking for original fixtures within
the home. This will direct your quest to
a specific time period, style, or architectural
movement.
Next,
match the level of quality. Be attentive
to the construction of the home. Architectural
detail in the home's archways, floor, mantel,
doors, and banisters all provide clues to
the home's craftsmanship. A lighting fixture
should appear in harmony with its surroundings
in quality and design. Your home's lighting
is an essential element and should appear
suited for the interior, even without furniture
in the room.
Explore
the homes of your friends and neighbors to
see how their lighting selections complement
their
interior space. Browse through a book or
interior design magazine to generate ideas.
Finally, choose a fixture that suits your
taste and personal style. Select a design
you can live with and enjoy.
