Multiple Hanging Lights

What do you think?

It definitely adds some color to a very white space, but I’m not a fan. Some of the light fixtures are pretty, but all the hanging wires & chains are unattractive. I like the room itself but I would start over with different furnishings.

I actually love this!

(Usually, I am negative towards most hanging lights, but I would enjoy seeing these.)

@wilma I think somebody better buy those ten year light bulbs.

No, not for me. Reminds me of the old streets with tangled overhead utility wires........

That room must look and feel like the surface of the sun with all those lights on. No thanks.

The room is indeed beautiful. I don't care for the way it's decorated at all. The cords to the lighting are apparently reminiscent of confetti and would be a dusting nightmare as would the lamp shades.

It appears the chairs are plastic and are in a shape which I don't care for.

While I like the idea, especially with such a long table, the wires would drive me nuts. I would add some color to the room and install, something like this from Potterey Barn. and are suspended from a rectangular canopy on black fabric cords of different lengths. 2 sets could be used and they are dimmable.

It would be fine in a lighting store, but just awful in a residence... The only thing I like about that room is the room itself... Let's toss out everything and start over, you know, with a blank slate...

That's a no for me. In fact the whole stark white room is a big turnoff. It hurts my eyes just to look at it. I'm with those who say remove everything and start over.

Huge potential here in this beautiful space. LM

Oh my, it looks like a show room for light fixtures..........don't care for it. Table and chairs look like they belong in an office meeting room.

I spent part of this AM giving a good talk to the knots in the blower cord. I can only imagine what this setup do to me.

Not a fan of the room period......too white and too much of a cluttered mess hanging from the ceiling!

I like the room itself but the furnishings and the lights have to go. It's a start from scratch for me.

I don't care for the look at all.
