MULTIPLE CHOICE
While a single fi xture is
lovely alone, a set can
introduce design pizzazz.
Use pendants in odd-
numbered groupings or
align sconces to create a
sense of movement. An
unexpected array of ceiling
fi xtures lifts the eye—adding
a sense of volume to a room.
In addition to style,
consider your room’s
purpose and light needs
when you’re creating a
multiple-fi xture array.
Ensure your grouping off ers
ambient, task, or accent light
at the appropriate level for
your lighting scheme.
Keep in mind that multiple
fi xtures means multiple
bulbs. Measure the total light
output of a grouping to avoid
overpowering the space.
❮ SHAPE IT UP
Place fi xtures in a
geometric pattern to
form a whole that is
greater than the sum
of its parts. Beyond,
