Custom Lighting For Your Living Room

The living room is a central area in many homes. Used for reading, watching TV, game night and relaxation, the living room serves multiple purposes. This space is also a common site for family gatherings. As such, the room should include elements that remind us of loved ones. Custom lighting is a great way to honor our best memories. How can you properly illuminate the living room with custom-made fixtures?

Layered Living Room Lighting

The living room is a highly functional space, so you will need layers of light to accommodate varying needs. There are three lighting types you need to consider:

  • Ambient: Provides general illumination for the room – think a chandelier or recessed lighting.
  • Task: Offers more concentrated light in an area where work is being performed. In the living room, this could be homework or a 500-piece puzzle.
  • Accent: Used to highlight different elements of a room, including artwork or a bookshelf.

Where does custom lighting come into play?

Custom Table & Floor Lamps

Typically, a floor lamp can provide general illumination but table lamps are better suited for task and accent lighting. At Restoration Lighting Gallery, we have experience transforming almost anything into a lamp.

Bring us a treasured family heirloom and we will create a one-of-a-kind, functioning lamp that can be used to light your living room. When family and friends come to visit, you will be reminded of the great memories you’ve shared together.

Custom Wall Sconces

Depending on the size of the room, wall sconces can serve many purposes. In smaller areas, they could be the source of ambient light but in the living room, work well as accent lights.

Our craftsmen can take a cherished family heirloom and recreate it as a wall sconce. For instance, the Mason jar flower vases from a family member’s wedding can be transformed into stylish sconces that illuminate their wedding photo on the living room wall!

Custom Ceiling Fixtures

Many people have family valuables passed down from generation to generation but oftentimes, they’re collecting dust in the attic. Why not turn great-grandma’s vintage glass bowl into a custom-made pendant light? This source of ambient lighting can be the focal point of your living room and a beautiful memory of time spent with lost loved ones.
