The choice of a beautiful chandelier is a very painstaking business, not hurried with haste and fuss. For example, take the living room. Here we rest in the evenings, we receive guests and the feeling of comfort and coziness in this room will largely depend on how correctly the chandelier is chosen. And any interior, even the most refined, will not look harmonious and finished without properly selected lighting.
How to choose a chandelier in the living room?
First of all, it is necessary to measure the size of the chandelier with the area of the room, that is, the size of the chandelier should match the size of the living room - a pompous chandelier in a small room will look strange, and on the contrary, an elegant lighting device will be "lost" in a spacious room. Therefore, it is worth considering not only the area of the room, but also the height of the ceilings.
An important factor - providing the chandelier, as an illuminating device, sufficient and high-quality lighting. Therefore, considering that for living rooms the generally accepted norm of illumination is 20 W / m2, choose a chandelier with enough light bulbs.
Design of chandeliers in the interior
Of course, the chandelier is not just a lighting device; in the interior of the living room it is also a bright enough, "active" decorative element that emphasizes the overall design of the room. Therefore, the stylistic performance of the chandelier should correspond to the style of the living room design - it would be ridiculous, for example, to look like a miracle of modern lighting equipment made of chrome and glass on the background of cloth wallpaper for antiquity and furniture from antiquarian furniture. For such a stylistic design of the room, a chandelier in the style of classicism is most suitable. Classic chandeliers for the living room are made of bronze, the carcass is covered with gilding, art pieces are widely used, usually decorated with pendants made of artfully cut glass or crystal. Such chandeliers attract admiring glances and emphasize the luxury of the interior. Of course, and the price of such chandeliers is not small. But! Classic always remains a classic - even after several decades this chandelier will look harmonious and emphasize the status of the owner of the house.

And, of course, we can not say about the style of high-tech , so beloved by connoisseurs of non-trivial design solutions and free spaces. Following the canons of style, chandeliers in the living room in the style of hi-tech are laconic and simple in form. They are made of modern practical materials (aluminum, plastic, glass, steel) and have, as a rule, strict geometric shapes. Among such chandeliers you will not find masterpieces with leaves and flowers. Rather, it will be chandeliers in the form of diamonds, triangles, balls or squares, perhaps to have several unusual elements of bizarre shapes. But by all means this will be the embodiment of all modern technologies, it will be the gloss of chrome surfaces and the play of light on a smooth glass.
Chandelier, whatever it is, in any case should be a highlight of the interior of your living room.
