Secrets of the right lighting of the living room
General
Most often, combined lighting is used in the living room, while the main one always remains the ceiling from one or more light sources. For many years, the installation of a chandelier has remained an actual option, especially since their choice is becoming more diverse. However, it should be noted that now stretch ceilings are becoming more and more popular, which need a special approach and not every chandelier will fit.

This design option will especially appeal to lovers of modern style in the interior. Interesting ideas on how to make a beautiful light in the hall for a stretch or ceiling made of drywall, we suggest looking at the photo:

The most popular is the installation of wall lights over the sofa for easy reading. Floor lamps are most often placed in the corners of a room.
The general light is intended for receiving guests, the local one is for family evenings in front of the TV. At the same time, the main thing in this matter is not to overdo it with a variety of lamps.
