Stairways are transitional spaces in the home best lit from above with bright lighting. Fortunately, there are no requirements that the lighting itself be merely practical or utilitarian. Instead, stairwells are an ideal opportunity to take what could be a purely functional space and transform it into a breathtaking experience where thoughtfully chosen lighting is the focal point. Hammerton has a wide range of light fixtures perfect for illuminating stairway spaces. Here are a few inspiring stairway chandelier ideas.
