Lamps over the coffee table

We’ve gathered a selection of pendants that will look wonderful over a coffee table. When it’s time to choose which lamp will look best over your coffee table, look for something inviting that works with the rest of your interior décor. You should also keep in mind the lamp’s purpose. Is it there to provide centered and focused light over the coffee table itself, to light up the whole room or to create a sense of mood? Should the pendant give direct or diffuse light? There are quite a few decisions to be made. All the different uses of a living room mean that they can be quite demanding when it comes to lighting, but luckily for you there are also lots and lots of lamps to choose from.

Which lamp should I hang over my coffee table?

A pendant is the style of lamp that works best over a coffee table. When it comes to actually hanging the pendant, it’s important that the lamp doesn’t block or disturb your view of the rest of the room. Always experiment to find the ideal hanging height – you don’t want your new lamp to hang so low that you can’t see your TV. It’s also important to make sure that the light isn’t shining right in your eyes.

Many people use table lamps or floor lamps to light the area around their sofa and coffee table, but a more modern trend is to use a pendant lamp instead. They’re betting at lighting up the entire room and serve as a central focus for the room’s decor. To keep them from overwhelming the rest of the room we recommend pendants with a diameter of 20 to 40 centimetres.

Pendants are wonderfully flexible – they can hang alone, in a pair or in groups. It’s up to you to decide what works best in your room and the only limit is your own imagination.
