Our edit of lovely hallway lighting
Lighting the way in your hallway can feel a touch daunting. Floor lamps and table lamps can be moved around, swapped and changed at whim but pendant lights are not so easily traded in. As they are wired into your ceiling or wall, it is important to pick ones that you will love for a long time.
If your hallway is windowless or on the darker side, a few hallway lights and a large hallway mirror can really brighten up the space and create a more spacious feel.
What is the best type of hallway lighting?
The best type of hallway lighting depends on your personal taste and needs. In a hallway you have several options. A sconce is a type of lighting fixture that is attached to the wall, rather than the ceiling. Originally these were decorative brackets that housed candles and gas filled lamps and were lit every evening. The alternative for a hallway is a pendant or ceiling light. Unlike a sconce, a pendant light is suspended from the ceiling.
