Lighting is probably the most important decor decision you can make for any room in your home.
This is because light accentuates certain pieces and can set the entire mood of the room, so that you feel both warm and relaxed or electrified the moment you enter.
Choosing lighting that complements the style of the room is important, especially if you live in a small house or apartment that does not have a lot of space.
If this is the case, you might want to consider wall lamps, or if you are in a position to where you can make modifications to your living space, recessed lighting is an even better option.
Since table lamps can take up valuable space in your home, and floor lamps are no better, you can take advantage of being able to hang wall lamps on the wall in order to save space while still lighting your home.
The most common style of wall hanging lamp is the sconce, which can be fixed into the wall if you have a home, or it can be battery and wireless powered if you are not able to use screws and other fixtures due to living in an apartment.
Victorian style sconces are very popular and will fulfill any lighting needs you may have, though if your decor is more modern you might want to seek out something that matches.
Recessed lighting is not so much decor-oriented as it is providing ambient light to highlight the room in the way you wish.
They are best put to use in the ceiling, highlighting a chair you frequently sit in to read, or even a painting on the wall.
Since they are recessed, the fixtures are not as noticeable, so there are less styles of this type of lighting available.
Most are painted white to fit in with traditional ceilings, but you do have stainless steel options available as well.
