Tips for Placing Decorative Wall Sconces
Wherever you’re installing your sconces, there are a number of factors to consider, including:
Height - Generally, a wall sconce should be installed with 60-65 inches between the floor and the center of the fixture. This height can vary based on the room and purpose.
Spacing - Ensure sconces are spaced appropriately to provide even lighting and avoid overcrowding the space.
Balance - For a symmetrical look, install sconces in pairs or evenly spaced along walls.
Functionality - Consider the primary use of the sconce (e.g., task lighting, accent lighting) when deciding on placement.
