Answer
To fit lamps and chandeliers well, position ceiling fixtures like chandeliers approximately thirty to thirty four inches above dining tables for optimal lighting without impeding sightlines. Floor and table lamps need enough surface or floor space and should complement the scale of surrounding furniture. Avoid overcrowding surfaces to maintain visual balance. Consider the lamp’s light output and placement relative to seating or work areas for both function and ambiance to enhance your room’s style and usability.
