Close to Ceiling Lights
Close-to-ceiling lights are surface-mounted lights whose shades hang close or sit directly on ceilings. In other words, these lights are most suitable for low-ceiling applications due to their little or non-existent ceiling-to-shade distance.
Mount them over a dinner table, entryway, or kitchen island. Install them in bedrooms and nooks or above coffee tables and couches. As another alternative for hanging lights, add aesthetically pleasing elements with a functional close-to-ceiling light source.
Zest Lighting is your go-to online shop for semi-flush or flush-mount ceiling lights. Regardless of your décor style, you can find a traditional or classic pendant that suits your space.
SEMI-FLUSH VS FLUSH-MOUNT CLOSE TO CEILING LIGHTS
Close-to-ceiling lights come in two primary types: semi-flush and flush-mounted lighting. Flush-mounted lights sit directly against the ceiling, making them ideal for low ceilings or compact spaces like walk-in closets and laundry rooms. They provide direct downward illumination, maximizing brightness in confined areas.
Semi-flush ceiling lights, on the other hand, are designed with a small gap between the shade and ceiling, allowing light to diffuse both upward and downward. This makes them perfect for adding depth and ambiance while maintaining a streamlined look.
BEST LOCATIONS FOR CLOSE-TO-CEILING LIGHTS
Due to their compact design, close-to-ceiling lights are best suited for low ceilings. However, they are also used in high-ceiling spaces for decorative purposes, adding balance to the room’s architectural elements. Below are some of the most popular places for installing close-to-ceiling lights:
- Kitchen: Many homeowners prefer close-to-ceiling lights in kitchens to maximize vertical clearance and minimize obstruction. This is especially useful in busy cooking areas where hanging lights might collect dust or interfere with ventilation.
- Laundry Room: Given the constant movement and need for functional lighting, close-to-ceiling lights ensure ample illumination without encroaching on valuable space.
- Walk-In Closet: Compact spaces require lighting that maximizes visibility without cluttering the area. Flush-mounted lights are a practical and stylish choice.
- Large Wardrobe: Instead of recessed downlights, small plug-in close-to-ceiling lights provide optimal brightness for organizing and accessing wardrobe contents.
- Children’s Rooms: For safety reasons, ceiling-mounted lights are preferable to pendant lights or chandeliers, which could pose a hazard in play areas.
