The Safavieh Lighting Guide
Find the right light for every room.
Start with the room. We'll show you what to layer, how to size it and where each fixture belongs.
A beautiful room needs more than one kind of light.
Think in layers: a comfortable glow for the room, focused light where life happens and a final accent that creates atmosphere.
What are you lighting?
Layer the room you live in.
Begin with a soft overhead glow, then bring light closer to where you read, gather and unwind. A mix of heights makes the room feel warm and complete.
Shop Living RoomWhat this room needs.
Center the light on the table.
The dining table is the anchor. Choose a fixture that relates to its shape, then hang it low enough to feel intimate without interrupting the view.
Shop Dining Room
Make the hardest-working room shine.
Use clear overhead light for the whole room and focused pendants where prep and conversation happen. The goal is bright, comfortable light without glare.
Shop Kitchen
Keep the light calm and close.
Build the room around a gentle ambient glow, then place reading light on both sides of the bed. Dimmers make the transition from morning to evening feel effortless.
Shop Bedroom
Welcome with one beautiful gesture.
The entry light should feel generous from the front door and clear the path below. Add a console lamp only if the space benefits from a softer evening layer.
Shop Entryway
Light the face from both sides.
Balanced light at the mirror is more flattering than a strong source overhead. Complete the room with a simple ceiling fixture for an even overall glow.
Shop Bathroom
Light the path, then set the mood.
Begin at the door and the steps, then add a softer glow where people gather. Choose fixtures specifically rated for the level of weather exposure.

Warm light makes living rooms, dining rooms and bedrooms feel inviting. A slightly clearer white helps kitchens and bathrooms feel fresh. Wherever possible, add a dimmer so the room can change with the time of day.
