Did you know that there are equal parts art and science to selecting the right lighting setup for a bedroom? For example, bedroom lamps are ideally as tall as the nightstands you put them on. Add a few inches for good measure. In this way, bedside lamps create a visually aesthetic presentation in the bedroom. Besides that, they also offer sufficient illumination for reading in bed.

Choosing Bedroom Lamps for Mid-Sized and Larger Rooms

Fixture heights for nightstand lamps range from about five inches to more than 40 inches. Therefore, you have a good range of models that are sure to suit any nightstand’s height. Once you have the right height, consider the type of bedside table lamps that suit your interior décor. There are Tiffany pizzazz, candelabra elegance, and gooseneck functionality. If you want to add task lighting functions to bedroom table lamps’ designs, select adjustable LED illumination. Dimming the lighting sets a mood, allows for reading, or lets you work from bed.

Which secondary lighting options could you select to add more ambiance to the room? Attractive bedroom wall sconces that match the general style of your bedside table fixtures are good choices. These typically tie into a wall light switch that offers the first level of lighting. Another source of attractive bedroom lighting comes in the form of illumination combined with themed ceiling fans.
