There was a time when the living room and dining room were separate in most houses. In today’s world, however, a part of the living room often becomes the dining room. This has led to a huge change in the way we live. In earlier times, the living room was a place where the emphasis was on interpersonal interaction, and the dining room was the space where people could focus and enjoy their food.
The dining room is a place that can be cozy and formal, elegant and informal. But first of all, it is a place for you to enjoy your food, not only its taste, but also its structure, its textures, its decorations. On the other hand, the living room is also meant to be cozy/formal and elegant/casual, but it is an open, well-lit space intended for recreation and interaction.
When decorating a living-dining space, therefore, the first requirement that arises is lighting. Clearly, a variety of lighting is required: reading lights for students and academics, dim lights for relaxed evenings with a beer and loved ones, and something in between for social occasions.
Decorative lighting fixtures such as chandeliers and chandeliers can come in handy in these cases. Chandeliers often come with dimmers, so you can adjust the brightness of the light to suit the occasion and individual preferences. Chandeliers are available in wrought iron and alloy metals. Although they were initially made to hold candles, today they also accept light bulbs, either tungsten or CFL.
Chandeliers also come in different sizes and types. From a dim five-candle chandelier suitable for a small table, you can move up to a large 12-candle chandelier that will easily illuminate a table for ten people or more. Like chandeliers, these are made from various types of metal, and even stone or wood.
In the modern home, reading lights are absolutely essential. You can get creative with your choice of reading lamp holder, using an old fashioned storm lantern or tea light holder for this purpose. Wall mounted lights are best if there are certain fixed positions where people want to read, while table lamps work best if you want to keep the arrangements flexible. Battery-powered table lamps can give you even more bang for your buck.
With decorative light stands and displays, you can combine the advantages of modern lighting methods, such as OLEDs or CFLs, with the beautiful, picturesque and detailed carving of ancient times.
To keep the spirit of the old days, you can also choose wall sconces, shelves and table accessories to match your lamps. Certain table accessories will never go out of style, as long as eggs, tea and bottles have a place in the home. In both the home and garden, placeholders, egg baskets, tea cushions, flower vases and bottle holders are needed, so keep an eye out for items that can be mixed and matched, producing several different combinations that make up your home. a pleasure for the eyes. .
