guidance on where to put pendant ceiling light

alicef

hi,

I would appreciate some views on where to place a pendant ceiling light in a bedroom which is not symmetrical - the ceiling slopes on one side (eaves) and the main focal point - the chimney breast - is offset in the room.

Thanks!

I would say as centrally as possible, BUT your eye will 'tell' you the right place. You could use blu tack and a bit of string to mock up the positions and chose the best one

Also bare in mind where will cause the least shadows - you don't want a dark gloomy corner. Perhaps walk around with a table or standing lamp held up in position?
