The last considerations are how your new chandelier is going to fit in with your space, style, and decor.

How to Find the Right Style of Chandelier

The chandelier you choose should compliment the style of your home. For example, if you consider yourself to be more minimalist in style, you might go for a simple chandelier with a few thin arms and clear bulbs. Or if you consider yourself more industrial, you might go for something with a bit more of a frame, and a mix of wood and metal.

Alternatively, if you find a fixture that you love, you can build your room around that by adding in features that compliment it. Such as choosing a brass chandelier, and adding brass decor, such as candlesticks and chair legs to the room.

What Material Should I Choose?

There are no hard and fast rules about what finishes and materials you should use. if you want to be confident that the chandelier will fit the space, lean more towards complimentary materials. Chandeliers can come in materials from wood, to crystal, and beaded to metal, and you can pick up elements from your space and look for light fixtures with those prominent materials.

But mixing metals is also a stunning design trend, and a large metal fixture in a space without any metallic accent pieces can still look gorgeous, so play around with different ideas. As long as you have the scale correct, you can have some fun with lighting too.
