Monulo · The practical guide

Lighting that fits.
A room that feels right.

Find a starting size, see where to place it, and know what to check before installation.

Find your starting size

01 · Get the scale right

A useful starting point, in seconds.

For a central ceiling light, enter your room dimensions. For lights above furniture, use the table or island guide below instead.

Measure first, then mock up the actual shape. Suggested dimensions are design starting points; product instructions and applicable local requirements take priority.

02 · Look up

Work with your ceiling.

The available drop matters as much as the fixture diameter.

Around 8 ft / 2.44 m

Keep it close

Start with a flush or compact semi-flush design in walking areas. Check the complete installed height.

Around 9–10 ft / 2.74–3.05 m

Balance the drop

Pendants become easier to accommodate. Reserve enough clearance below the lowest part of the fitting.

Above 10 ft / 3.05 m

Scale with intention

Test larger forms or longer suspension. Confirm cable length, access for maintenance and ceiling support.

Sloped ceiling? Compatibility is model-specific. Confirm the canopy, suspension angle and required drop before ordering.

30–36 in / 76–91 cm above the tabletop

Room study 01

Dining table

Let the furniture define the focal point.

Measure: Measure the tabletop, including its width at the widest point.
Size & place: For a round fixture, test a diameter around ½–⅔ of the table width. For a linear design, start with ½–⅔ of its length.
Check: Center on the table and check the view across it while seated.

30–36 in / 76–91 cm above the counter

Kitchen island

Plan the whole row before choosing the quantity.

Measure: Record counter length, width and the working area below.
Size & place: Try two or three paper shade outlines. Adjust their widths until adjacent edges and both island ends have breathing room.
Check: Mark equal centers; verify the actual gap between shades rather than using center spacing alone.

Start with at least 7 ft / 213 cm walking clearance

Room study 03

Room center

Use the room formula as a visual starting point.

Measure: Record length, width and finished ceiling height.
Size & place: Add length and width in feet; use that total as a starting diameter in inches. Example: 12 + 14 → 26 in / 66 cm.
Check: Check the furniture plan and the fixture’s visual weight. This formula does not determine brightness.

Keep doors, stairs and walking routes unobstructed

Hallway & entry

A consistent rhythm works better than a crowded ceiling.

Measure: Mark the full walking route, doors and changes in ceiling height.
Size & place: Divide the usable corridor into equal bays. Place each light near a bay center, leaving half a bay at each end.
Check: Choose the final distance from the fixture’s light output and beam spread; test the layout after dark.

Position paired lights symmetrically beside the mirror

Room study 05

Bathroom vanity

Put comfortable facial lighting first.

Measure: Record mirror dimensions, side wall space and cabinet swing.
Size & place: For side sconces, trial the luminous center around 65–70 in / 165–178 cm above the floor.
Check: Adjust to the actual user and mirror. Check for bright reflections and confirm the correct location rating.

Use an adjustable mock-up before fixing wall lights

Room study 06

Bedroom & bedside

Choose the height from where you actually sit.

Measure: Measure the mattress, nightstand and your seated position.
Size & place: Try the shade at seated eye or shoulder height so the bright source is screened and the page is lit.
Check: Check reach to the switch, head movement, pillows and any adjustable arm.

A deeper or diffused shade can improve comfort

Room study 07

Reading & living

Light the page without exposing the source.

Measure: Sit in your usual chair with a book before locating the lamp.
Size & place: Place task lighting beside or slightly behind the shoulder. Add separate ambient lighting to soften contrast.
Check: Keep the base and cord out of traffic; check glare from both the chair and nearby seats.

03 · Before the tools come out

One installation checklist.

Bring the product instructions, room measurements and fixture weight to your installer.

01 / Fit

Mock up the final position

Check door swings, seated views, shade gaps and the lowest point. Include the canopy and suspension in every drop measurement.

02 / Support

Verify the mounting

Have a qualified installer confirm the box, fixing points and structural support for the complete fixture weight.

03 / Compatibility

Match the electrical details

Confirm supply voltage, lamp or LED driver, dimmer compatibility, ceiling type and location rating for the exact model.

Hardwired fixtures should be installed by a qualified electrician following the supplied instructions and local requirements. This page explains planning and placement; it does not provide wiring instructions.

04 · The last few details

Questions before you choose.

Which measurement should I use for the drop?

Measure vertically from the finished ceiling to the lowest point of the assembled fitting. Over a table or counter, measure the remaining gap from that point to the surface.

Does a larger light always mean a brighter room?

No. Diameter describes the physical size. Compare lumen output, shade opacity, beam direction and the room’s other light sources separately.

How do I choose between two or three island pendants?

Start with the shade diameter, then draw the complete row to scale. Two larger shades and three small shades can both work; use actual edge gaps and counter-end clearances to decide.

What if my ceiling is too low for the light I like?

Compare a shorter suspension or a flush alternative that the manufacturer supports. Never shorten a rigid stem or modify wiring without the appropriate product guidance.

Can any fixture go in a bathroom or on a sloped ceiling?

No. Check the exact product specification and installation position. Ask a qualified installer to confirm the required damp or wet rating and canopy compatibility.

What should I send when asking for sizing advice?

Include a room photo, ceiling height, room or furniture dimensions, the fixture link and your proposed installation location. For heavier fittings, include any available mounting information.
