Because of their versatility in style and function, pendant lights can be hung in different areas of the house. In this article, we’ll explore the most common places where you can utilize some of Swift Beacon’s top-notch pendant lights.
Different Placements for Pendant Lights
Over a Kitchen Island
For kitchen islands, pendant lights are ideal for creating focused lighting when cooking and eating. To ensure maximum illumination, you should align the lights proportionately with the island’s size and evenly spaced them out.
A foolproof rule to follow is to use multiple mini pendants. For instance, a couple of our Aurora Cylinder Solo can be spread throughout the length of your kitchen island making sure that all space is well-lit.

Over a Kitchen Peninsula
Hanging pendant lights over a peninsula can be tricky because of their L-shaped figure. For this situation, remember that centering is key. The part that’s not leaning on the wall should receive lighting priority.
Two or more of our medium-sized Amber Sphere Pendant should be sufficient to illuminate the surface for food prep or casual dining and add a stylish touch to the space as well. Do remember to evenly space them to achieve a balanced look.
In the Living Room
Apart from brightening up the space, pendants can also serve as statement pieces because of their aesthetic design. They can elevate the ambiance and highlight key areas. To create a stylish focal point in conversation areas, place our Vintage Brass Pendant above a coffee table.
For a relaxed atmosphere in your reading nook, utilize dimmable pendants like our Bronze Teardrop Pendant. We recommend hanging it a bit higher than usual to prevent glares and too much brightness which can be distracting when reading.
In the Bedroom
Pendant lights are modern lighting alternatives to traditional lamps. Hung on either side of the bed, our Fume Glow Pendant frees up surface space on nightstands while offering soft lighting perfect for winding down after a tiring day.
Basically, Place Them Anywhere!
No for real, the versatility of pendant lights is endless you can place them in different areas of your home, and they can make the space instantly better. By thoughtfully considering placement and purpose, you can create a personalized and stylish lighting experience.
