Frank Lloyd Wright Chandelier

A Frank Lloyd Wright chandelier best matches homes, furniture, and art in the mid-century modern style. Wright’s works often depend on the simple beauty of geometry in order to attain their brilliance, and the chandeliers are no different!

If you have a Frank Lloyd Wright chandelier in your home, you’re going to want it to be the star of the show. All of the other furniture in the room needs to be a good supporting player. Make sure that you work with neutral colors of furniture that have straight, parallel lines in their legs and backs. That way, your beautiful chandelier will be the focal point of your room.

To determine the right size for your Frank Lloyd Wright chandelier, measure the width and length of the room in feet. Take the sum of these two numbers as inches to get the diameter of the right chandelier size. To calculate the appropriate length, measure the height of the room in feet. Consider that number in inches and multiply it by 2.5. For example, a living room 15 feet wide, 17 feet long, and 8 feet high, would suit a chandelier with a diameter of 32 inches and a length of 20 inches.

For multiple chandeliers to be hung over a focal point, such as a dining table, calculate the diameter of the table in inches, and divide it by the number of chandeliers, plus 1. For example, to hang two chandeliers above a 54-inch dining table, the right diameter would be 18 inches, hung 18 inches apart.
