WAC has been at the forefront of emerging technologies for nearly 40 years. We are a zero-landfill company that manufactures sustainably built and sourced LED light fixtures for residential, hospitality, museum and commercial settings. Our decorative ceiling light fixtures are versatile enough to serve as the centerpiece of a room or as an accent fixture to highlight artwork or other artworks throughout the space. From flush mounts to pendants to track lights, recessed and more, we have what you need to create a statement lighting piece for any home or business.

We manufacture decorative ceiling lights to suit any location. Our mini pendants can act as glistening adornments to light up a foyer, while recessed LEDs can provide functional illumination and complement the decor. Some ideal locations for ceiling lights include:

  • Hotel and museum lobbies
  • Spa
  • Mudrooms, closets and utility areas
  • Living room
  • Kitchen island
  • Conference room
  • Dining room
  • Front Porch
  • Bedroom
  • Entryway

How to Choose the Perfect Fixture for Your Space

Determining which ceiling light will fit your space require careful measuring. This is a vital step when choosing a ceiling-mounted light. You need to determine how effective the lighting will be and how it will appear in the space. Choosing a light that's much too big for a small room or vice versa will make the fixture and the light itself appear disproportionate. To figure out what size light will best suit your needs, use the following formulas.

Diameter

To determine the best diameter light for a ceiling, measure the length and width of the room in feet. You then have the perfect size for the ceiling light fixture in that room. For example, let's say you measure the length and width of the room and it is 12 feet by 16 feet.

  1. 12 + 16 = 28 feet
  2. Swap the units: 28 feet is now 28 inches
  3. 28 inches is the ideal diameter for the light fixture

Height

Height may or may not be a factor in the light you choose. For instance, decorative flush mounts or recessed lights are not much of a concern because they do not protrude from the ceiling. If you're using a chandelier or pendant, you must consider the height of the fixture. To do this, measure the height of the room in feet.

  1. 12 x 2.5 to 3 = 30 to 36 feet
  2. Swap the units: 30 to 36 inches
  3. 30 to 36 inches is the ideal height for a fixture in that room

Clearance

The room and placement of a fixture will be the main determiner of clearance. It's important to create enough clearance to avoid the risk of someone walking into the fixture. In more open rooms, such as living rooms, lobbies or bedrooms, a good rule of thumb is to keep the bottom of the ceiling fixture no less than 7 feet of clearance from the floor. If there are low ceilings, consider using recessed or flush mounts for better clearance. In baths, give ceiling fixtures about 8 feet of clearance. If the bathroom can't accommodate this measurement, consider a smaller fixture or flush-mounts.

Positioning

You will likely have determined the placement of a ceiling light before you figure out clearances, heights and diameters. If you plan to light a hotel lobby, the main decorative fixture might hang in the perfect center as a statement piece.

If you are considering a new light for a dining room, you'll want to place the light directly over the table. Spacing and positioning can be determined by the shape and size of the table, and the height of the ceiling.

For tables that are equidistantly measured, such as a square or circle, consider a single light directly in the center. Keep the fixture from extending over the table by about 1 foot, or 6 inches on each end.

As a decorative ceiling light manufacturer, we understand the impact of buying decorative lights. Our ceiling lights will captivate anyone in the room with their design. Plus, LED lighting can act as human-centric lighting to promote wellness and align with sleep/wake cycles.

The types of decorative ceiling lights we build include:

  • Pendants
  • Mini Pendants
  • Semi-Flush Mounts
  • Flush Mounts
  • Recessed
  • Track and Rail
  • Cove
  • Monopoints

At WAC, we think of ourselves as a technology company that's in the lighting business. Creating LEDs that have a long lifecycle helps eliminate waste and is just one way we provide Responsible Lighting. We manufacture our lighting fixtures all the way down to the component level.

We are your source for customizable decorative ceiling lights for hotels, commercial buildings, residential spaces and more.
