Lighting a Pitched Ceiling

Downlighting in a room with a vaulted ceiling can make you

feel like you’re in a cave. The right fi xture changes the eff ect

to create a more pleasing room. Use a short, wide-diameter

pendant or drum-shape light to uplight the space or to send

light out to the sides to eliminate the sense of overhead

gloom. Or, build in a soffi t or cove and add rope lighting that

refl ects off the ceiling. This kind of indirect lighting works

well for watching TV in a bedroom or family room. While light

washes the ceiling and room edges, lamp refl ections don’t

infringe on the screen. Sway, Progress Lighting
