Lighting is one of the most transformative elements in interior design. When layered thoughtfully, it can create a space that feels both dramatic and inviting, functional and stylish. At Eichholtz Manhattan, we believe lighting isn’t just about visibility — it’s about setting a mood, highlighting details, and elevating every corner of your home.
Why Layered Lighting Matters
Layered lighting combines different sources and types of light to add depth and dimension. Instead of relying on a single overhead fixture, layering uses ambient, task, and accent lighting to balance functionality with ambiance. This technique allows you to control the mood and practicality of your space, adapting effortlessly from bright and focused to soft and intimate.
Introducing the Acevedo Alabaster Chandelier
At the heart of a well-layered lighting scheme is a statement piece — a fixture that draws the eye and anchors the room. The Acevedo Alabaster Chandelier from Eichholtz Manhattan is a perfect example. With its striking alabaster shades and sculptural brass frame, this chandelier balances bold drama with elegant warmth.
Its soft, diffused light creates an inviting glow, while the artistic design adds a sculptural element to your ceiling. Whether suspended over a dining table, in a grand entryway, or as a centerpiece in a living room, the Acevedo chandelier commands attention without overpowering the space.
How to Layer Light with the Acevedo Chandelier
-
Ambient Lighting: Use the Acevedo chandelier as your primary ambient light source. Its alabaster shades gently soften the light, filling the room with warmth.
-
Task Lighting: Complement the chandelier with task lighting such as sleek table lamps or adjustable floor lamps in seating areas, providing focused illumination for reading or working.
-
Accent Lighting: Add accent lights like wall sconces or LED strips to highlight architectural features, artwork, or furniture, creating depth and visual interest.
Tips for Achieving Balance
-
Dimmer Switches: Install dimmers to adjust light levels and shift the mood from bright and lively to cozy and relaxed.
-
Warm Light Bulbs: Choose warm-toned bulbs to enhance the natural glow of alabaster and brass, fostering comfort.
-
Consider Scale: Pair the grandeur of the Acevedo chandelier with smaller fixtures to maintain balance and prevent overwhelming the room.
