Coppery hues are very much on trend right now, as they’re an easy way to bring in some class and elegance into the home. Hang three copper pendant lamps in a row over a black dining table for extra style points.

Steal decor ideas from your favourite hipster cafe with a white and wood themed dining area, and three geometric-style wire frame pendant lamps. The exposed bulb-effect gives the space lots of personality and creates a casual vibe.

Opt for pendant lamps that won’t distract from your main decor, yet provide a cosy ambiance to dine in. If your interior is mostly black, choose a matching black set and vice versa.

If you love the eclectic look, choose a cluster of pendant lamps that will really make your dining space stand out. These star-shaped ones look almost like jewellery hanging from the ceiling, and complement the see-through dining chairs which are equally quirky.

For a more dynamic contemporary approach, go for a trio of pendant lights in different shapes – round, curved, conical, rectangular – but that still look good together.

Chic oversized pendant lamps can really draw attention to the dining area, which is perfect if you enjoy hosting and entertaining over a spread of food. Just two lights would be enough, as any more would look too “heavy”.

Boldly go where most homes fear to tread with a colourful display of pendant lamps! Psst, not all of them need to work, some can just work as decorative pieces. It makes for a really comfortable, casual atmosphere and makes the dining space the focal point of the home.

If your dining space is longer than it is wide, you can decide to opt to space out your lights evenly to ensure more uniform light distribution across the table(s). Little decorative lampshades add personality and are great for creating a more subtle effect, so that the decor and lights don’t get too overwhelming.

To really make an impression, install unusual and stylish pendant lamps that give a bit of an artistic edge. A gold stem also amps up the luxe factor and makes your home look more expensive. But more than than, it gives you a space you’ll be proud of, because of the amount of thought that’s gone into every detail.

This chandelier-style group of pendant lamps help keep a spacious dining area well-lit.
