A loyal reader of The Design File -- we'll call her "In the Dark" -- is trying to choose a pendant to light up her condo's foyer, which is about 10-feet square.
It's large enough that a tiny pendant won't do. She's looking for something at least 10-inches wide, modern and affordable. No $500 suggestions, please! It needs to be a light that can be hard-wired rather than something that plugs into an outlet.
The foyer's walls are a freshly painted tan/taupe color and the trim is white. She's also looking for a new entry rug in shades of brown and beige.
"In the Dark" is considering Pottery Barn's Calvin Pendant, shown lit and unlit at right. It's on clearance now for a mere $70 and she already has a tree theme in a nearby bathroom. But she's also considering some of the very popular, modern polypropylene lights as well.
What do you think? Do you like the Pottery Barn option?
If not, how about some links to lights you like. And don't forget to think about a rug too!
