Great suggestion. I've been trying to come up with a lighting solution for this room -- but I've just got one outlet that is halfway up the wall, so it's been tough! I just purchased a battery powered light bulb and brought a lamp into the room, but it's still not quite enough. I might have to add an electrical outlet in here 🙃 Maybe a new ceiling fixture that gives off more light too
If you’re going to add an outlet or a ceiling light you might want to hire an electrician so you stay code compliant. If you’re trying to stay in a budget and don’t mind the cords maybe a surge protector and multiple lights would work. Consider that if you like to read putting task lights on either end of the couch. Maybe tall lamps on either side of the room to have the same function as a ceiling light could be a solution. In any case try lights with different color temperatures to see what they do to the color of the room. I’m sure you’ll come up with a beautiful solution that fits want you envision.
Absolutely gorgeous. Wish i had the guts to do this to my living room. :)
It’s your place and it should be to your taste, but may I suggest trying different kinds of lighting and see what effect it has on the room color?
