After determining the design statement of a chandelier in a room, it is best to consider how its lighting works in your home. According to the Functions, the chandelier can be classified as uplight chandeliers, downlight chandeliers and ambient lighting.  The uplight chandelier focuses the light upwards, thereby providing a reflective atmosphere around the space, rather than lighting directly downwards.  Similar to the traditional chandeliers, a downlight chandelier provides unobstructed light below. This is ideal when your room requires a lot of direct, focused light.  Ambient lighting is also called general lighting, which always works as decorative lighting in a large space. Ambient lighting is just the base, upon which you must add
the other two layers of lighting.
