Answer
Layer lighting by combining an appropriately hung chandelier with dimmable warm bulbs, complemented by side lamps like buffet lamps. Use bulbs around two thousand seven hundred kelvin for soft amber tones. Dimmers offer control over brightness for different occasions, making the space cozy or vibrant. Add accent lighting, such as candlelight or wall sconces, to create depth and a polished, inviting atmosphere.
