You\u2019ve revamped your bathroom, your kitchen, your living room and all the bedrooms; you\u2019ve decked them out with rugs, squashy couches, fluffy towels, huge beds and all of the best designer lighting. But something\u2019s not quite right \u2013 your house is missing that \u201cwow-factor\u201d and you\u2019re not quite sure what it is. And then you realise \u2013 you have neglected your hallway! It still has the same faded carpet, stained walls and flowery lone lamp shade circa 1982 hanging forlornly from the ceiling. What to do? How do you know what lights to choose? What kind of style should you go for? A ceiling pendant, wall lights or a flush fitting? A chandelier, or is that too middle class bourgeoisie? To check out our hallway light fittings click here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The hallway is a room full of momentous importance \u2013 if eyes are the window to the soul, then your hallway is definitely the window to your home and what kind of personality it has. And what better way to shed light on that soul than with some excellent lighting choices from Lighting Direct? Why not take a look at our Top Ten Hallway Lights Countdown for some inspiration?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you live in a minimalist home, you will most likely veer towards the clean lines and modern design of the\u00a0Ventana Glass Flush Fitting Ceiling Light<\/a>. This light fitting is also great for those with limited space, as it is a\u00a0flush fitting<\/a>\u00a0with a neutral colour. It does not however, lack in style thanks to a frosted glass diffuser with an acid etched grid design. It is also part of a coordinating range, for even more designer impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another unique design that combines modern and classic in a hallway light, is the Factory Pendant<\/a>. This beautifully simple pendant light has a wonderful design that is completely up-to-date but won\u2019t go out of fashion fast.

If you don\u2019t want a main light in your hallway and would prefer several of the same wall lights, 2 Light Wall Light \u2013 Polished Chrome<\/a> could be the solution. This polished chrome twin wall light has a very unusual but unobtrusive design. The contemporary metal with facetted glass shades are cuboid shaped. Just use one or two for an understated fashionable look, or more for a dramatic statement. (Also available in other finishes and with coordinated fittings)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For those of you who want something that looks good but is also discreet, feast your eyes upon the Milo Ceramic Wall Light<\/a>. Understated elegance and a curved ceramic shade will provide soft, warm and welcoming light in your hallway. This uplighter<\/a> is also great if you want your light to fit in entirely with your colour scheme or if you want to make it a feature on its own, as you can paint it any colour you like. Simply leave it natural if you prefer the more classic look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
