Lighting of the dwelling through a centralized light source, a long tradition, and although the trend of localized lighting has recently intensified, most dwellings are illuminated using chandeliers.
Like all lamps, chandeliers design of the chandelier are compiled by two components:
reinforcement, consisting of a case, a cartridge, a fastener system, a system for the output of wires, a reflector and a ceiling;
Electric lamps
The variety of types of chandeliers offered by the market is countless, and allows you to realize any design fantasies. But when choosing a chandelier, it is necessary to provide some points, in particular, the features of fastening on a particular ceiling. There will be no special problems when attaching a chandelier to the traditional ceiling, where the presence of mounting mount is provided for by the construction plan and it remains only to purchase a hook chandelier. Another thing is suspended ceilings that acquire an increasing popularity. Here, when choosing a chandelier, it is necessary to compare the fasteners of a chandelier with the features of the installation of the ceiling.
The traditional method of attaching a chandelier on the mounting hook is possible with stretch ceilings. In this case, when purchasing a chandelier, it is necessary to take into account the level of the ceiling and the length of the hook. The installation “glass” of the chandelier should fit tightly to the ceiling canvas without the slightest gaps.
One of the widespread mounting methods for today is a standard mounting bar. The installation of the chandelier is based on the installation of the wooden base, taking into account the level of the stretch ceiling, since the chandeliers of this category, as a rule, are not adjusted in height.
Large chandeliers are more advisable to fix on the cross mounted bar, an analogue of a standard bar, but in a more lightweight version.
According to the design, the chandeliers are divided by the location of the plafones – the plafones facing the ceiling directed to the ceiling, creating the effect of reflection and dispersion, directed down the ceiling, give a more targeted stream of light, the chandelier in the corridor can be performed in the flat version, which is preferable in the case if there are low ceilings in the corridor.
Modeling space for the help of lighting is a modern trend that allows you to maintain an open space simultaneously denoting the necessary areas. The use of lamps and chandeliers of various designs can organize any style space.
