Lighting is essential in every space to create a good atmosphere, and of course, the same is true for practicality. Chandeliers are the main choice for restaurants, but there are many different designs-from stylish bare bulbs, swag ceiling lights and enamel lampshades to clear glass and rattan lampshades.

However, this is not only related to lighting design, but also how you combine them. Layered lighting is the key to successful completion, especially when you present the best restaurant ideas for your family and any guests.

It is easy to turn a dimly lit restaurant into a stylish, well-lit space. If you have never thought about choosing two or three lamps above, please think again, because this can actually highlight your table decoration. But there are more ways to create atmosphere and strike a perfect balance between style and function.

There is no reason why your restaurant cannot have bold and beautiful lighting. We like this earth lamp, it has a cool retro feel, so it will not be out of date. 

Let it take center stage above your table, the beauty of this design is that the monochromatic element means it can be used in any color scheme you choose. 

“As our houses continue to evolve to reflect our personal style more, we become bolder in lighting and try more unexpected shapes,” said Anna Cross, a Habitat home buyer.

We have recently seen the revival of transparent glass pendants, and it is easy to understand why, their appearance and work in both classic and modern environments are amazing. 

The simplicity of this circular design makes it a beautiful choice, it can be hung alone above your dining table, and we like the brass touch that adds warmth. In addition, this is a great way to help illuminate a dark room.

When you have a rectangular table, you need to consider the size of your chandelier. You don't need multiple designs, just one, as long as your width allows the light to be evenly distributed on the table. 

Pay attention to a chandelier like this design. It has a modern feel with the naked light bulb hanging down. They are very suitable for dispersing light well. 

We tend to think that the chandelier can only be used as lighting in the living room or bedroom, but this fabulous white design looks great above this round dining table. The shape imitates a table and helps the entire appearance to flow visually.

This look is suitable for those who like flirty and fun, of course, white means it can match any table setting scheme you have.

'From busy family gatherings and homework stations to intimate dinners with friends, the dining room is one of the most commonly used rooms in the house.

Natalie Mann, Iconic Lights’ new product development coordinator, explained that chandeliers work best in this space. Hanging them on the dining table creates a low-key and intimate light, perfect for entertainment.

If you like a natural look, then the rustic design is your best choice. Tactile elements add a new dimension to the scheme, and such shades look great with wicker chairs and coconut palm rugs.

Width is also important. You can see that this design fits the size of this round table very well. This is to make the proportions correct and make it look balanced visually. 

If you like the appearance of "contrasting patterns", then don't choose pure colors, but choose a design like this-with tassels! 

They are fun and fancy, and will be the topic of your dinner. From a stylistic point of view, in order to make it work, match some key colors. Here, red, green and orange match the wallpaper, and the white background echoes the dressing table and white painted floor. 

“Choose one or two oversized pendants and use eye-catching materials or colors to highlight the design style and enhance your existing decoration scheme,” Mann said.

'Another great trick is to combine any style of restaurant lights with dimmers. It can fully control the brightness and let you determine the atmosphere of the room.

We asked Peter Legg, chief designer of där lighting, for his suggestions for restaurant lighting:

'The restaurant is a good area where you can add personalized designs, such as cluster pendants, low-hanging bars or large-size chandeliers. To ensure that it is a comfortable environment, don't forget to consider the height of the lamp you are using, and choose a position that is not flush with the line of sight when sitting down. You can also use table lamps to help create an atmosphere and attract attention to artwork or other accessories.  

If you have an open kitchen restaurant, please layer the lighting. In the kitchen, it is best to provide sufficient light and choose LED lights to provide clear light for food preparation. The low-hanging bar chandelier above the dining area can complement this. The chandelier can be installed on the dimmer to provide perfect lighting for entertainment.

"Open kitchen restaurants and islands can be divided into "zones" through the use of unique lighting," said Mary Buchanan, creative director and board director of Laura Ashley Lighting and Mirror.

'This can be achieved by using directional downlights or fixed-point tasks with swivel joints in the preparation and cooking areas, and oversized personalized pendants with dimmers on tables or islands to add drama and atmosphere. The bar chandeliers provide direct light and provide a warm feeling for guests and focal points. Choose a design that is both practical and beautiful.

This beautiful block-colored restaurant is the epitome of modernity. Electric blue walls and woodwork are the perfect backdrop for these super bright chairs and accessories.

The chandelier contrasts sharply with its bright yellow hue. This look is not for the faint-hearted, but if you like color, embrace it completely.

'At Pooky, we are committed to introducing bold and popular colors to add vitality and interest to your favorite room. In the dining room, a great statement light source, a light source that really controls the space is a chandelier. Whether it's a traditional design or a simpler silhouette, you can choose different shades and finishes for some of our chandeliers to create something distinctive and bright that will make your personality shine. On a functional level, these are ideal choices for dining spaces because they allow light to overflow evenly to illuminate the faces of other diners. Rohan Blacker, the founder of Pooky, said that the suspension is the center and hover over the dining table for best results.

Choose lighting that suits your dining table style-a long and narrow design like this will provide plenty of light for your entire dining table, perfect for homework, work at home, and entertaining with friends. 

The black and glass design is suitable for any modern or classic scheme, you can use black chairs and accessories to link the look together.

Designed by Lindye Galloway, a California interior design studio, this restaurant is well-lit and well-ventilated.

'This home is our own view of modern farmhouses. We mix retro works with new works, and use leather and wood elements to create a warm feeling. Lindye Galloway, founder and chief creative office of Lindye Galloway Studio, said: "We want the lighting to be dramatic, so we extend the wall lamp from the wall to the top of the dining table to create a unique look from any angle."

The white stacked walls create the feel of a farmhouse, while the metal wall lights add a sense of structure and modernity. They are perfectly spaced to ensure that the entire length of the table can receive sufficient light.

We tend to think that restaurant lighting needs to be prominent and statement, but it can be subtle and stylish. 

This black metal chandelier with a white hue is low-key but still eye-catching. From a functional point of view, it accomplishes what it needs to do, but it does not distract people from the rest of the program.

“This restaurant replaces the old family room next to the kitchen in our client’s home,” explains Kirsten Krason, co-founder and chief designer of House of Jade Interiors.

"We removed the large windows and added doors to go out of the rear deck. We warmed the space by adding wooden beams and floating wooden fireplaces to the fireplace. The star of this room is the custom restaurant cushion, which adds the perfect subtle pattern!

For entertainment, light needs to be subtle, not bright and dazzling. White opal glass is the ideal material for this feeling, and it is also very suitable for trends. 

This DEJSA chandelier from IKEA has a slight retro feel, and it is easy to attract the eye in all aspects. The soft curve design gives people a "friendly" feeling.

This ingenious String Pendant lampshade is actually made of black and white rope, which is very unusual. Hang a pair above the dining table, paying attention to other materials such as these gray vases, tactile pulleys and wooden bowls. Dried flowers are a major trend this season, so use them to add another layer of texture to the decorative look of this wonderful rustic restaurant. 

We like the simple style of these IKEA deep red pendant lamps. They emit glare-free light and are very suitable for dining tables. You can use red as the focus of the rest of the dining table-plates, seat cushions, table runners-to maintain the cohesion of the appearance.

This green metal ceiling lamp is undoubtedly an ideal choice for lovers of modern style, because it adds a touch of color to this simple restaurant plan. This design is an eye-catching centerpiece. The three oversized lampshades allow the light to be layered evenly, which can also illuminate the kitchen island well. 

Choosing a transparent glass pendant will help create the illusion of space, as you can see through the shadows. You can increase your design interest by instilling the power of three. This is especially effective if your dining space is small. This Gloucester linear bar from UK Next has three gorgeous glass shadow pendants with chrome details-their design ensures that they fit both traditional and modern schemes. You can find similar styles at Home Depot.

How dreamy is this restaurant? For this style to work, you need light and dark contrast, and Argos ceiling chandeliers can undoubtedly do this! This one is made of opal glass and emits diffuse light, while the rich golden accessories add a charming touch-it looks amazing against the navy wall.

The best one is to illuminate the table enough so that you can entertain while creating a happy mood. If your table is very long, then you will need more than one lamp. This is where a bar lamp or a row of chandeliers comes in.

As mentioned above, the dining table is the key to lighting. In addition to that, you can use wall lights to create a lovely warm light, and if you put them on a dimmer, you can control the light more easily. Floor lamps and desk lamps can also work.
