Architectural Lighting Types > Pendant

Architectural lighting styles are designed to enhance the aesthetic appearance of a building, supply the correct amount of light and maximize energy efficiency. Due to the basic laws of physics, lighting is much brighter and more energy efficient if the light source is located close to where it is needed. This is the fundamental reason why decorative architectural light sources are chosen to be used within a space.

It is usually less efficient to locate light sources on the ceiling or perimeter of a room, especially if the ceiling is high or the room is wide — as is often the case in an auditorium, ballroom, or banquet hall. Lighting fixtures that are correctly spaced within a room can provide much more even lighting at a lower energy cost. Architectural lighting styles are designed to provide the correct amount of light and minimize visual glare.
