Exploring The Benefits Of Pendant Lighting In Your Cafe

Pendant lighting is more popular now than ever before as both home owners and businesses are discovering their many benefits. In fact the advantages of pendant lights over other types of lighting may be your motivation to use them in your venue. So, without further delay, let’s take a look at the benefits you can enjoy from installing pendant lighting.

Defines areas of a room

Pendant lighting is perfect for defining specific areas of a large room and can be suspended in such a way that they become a focal feature. For example, if you have a bank of tables along one wall, you may want to hang a line of pendants to shine down on the tables. Or, if you have a central station where plates, crockery, condiments etc. are placed for customer to help themselves then you could hang various sizes of pendant lights at different lengths to again be both functional and decorative.

Focus lighting

Since pendant lighting is suspended from the ceiling and can be hung to virtually any length they serve the purpose of acting as focal lighting. For instance, they work really well suspended over an island flooding it with light concentrated solely on that area. Because the lights are conical they also direct a lot of light downwards covering a large area, meaning that you don’t need to invest in so many lights thereby saving you money too.

Wide variety of styles

Pendant lights are available in a wide range of colours, sizes, and styles so you can mix and match them to give a bespoke look to your venue. The latest trend is to ditch the lampshade and hang just the bulbs which gives a modern, edgy look.

Easy to maintain

Since pendant lighting hangs relatively low, it’s far easier to keep them free from dust and to change a light bulb than it would be if you were dealing with a light fitting attached to a high vaulted ceiling.

Transforms your décor

Pendant lights also have the ability to transform your décor since they come in many different finishes and colours. In addition you can switch out your bulbs to add either a soft warm glow for a more intimate ambience or a brighter bulb for an area where good light is essential. Pendant lighting works really well in an industrial themed setting since you can find them with metallic finishes. On the other hand, you can use brightly painted pendants such as red to add a pop of colour to a neutral palette.
