Lighting Size Guide


A small ceiling light with real travertine character
Each stone band carries its own pores, tones, and mineral marks, paired with a warm glass shade that softens the glow for intimate indoor spaces.
Designed to make a hallway feel intentional
The low cylindrical form sits close to the ceiling, leaving the stone visible while the glass shade spreads a gentle pool of warm light. It works best as accent lighting for an entryway, short corridor, bedside ceiling point, or quiet lounge corner.

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 size01 · 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.
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.
Room study 02
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.
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.
Room study 04
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.
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.
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.
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.
A story in stone
Travertine does not simply cover a light — it gives the glow a sense of place.
Formed by mineral-rich water over time, travertine carries the quiet marks of its origin. Its warm surface brings a grounded, natural presence to every lighting form.
Natural character
No two surfaces are ever the same.
Open pores, soft layers and gentle tonal shifts are part of travertine's identity. Every piece reveals a different balance of texture, warmth and mineral detail.
Open pores
Pure texture
Small cavities and a softly honed face keep the stone tactile and honest.
Mineral layers
Quiet movement
Flowing bands create depth through gentle shifts in cream, sand and ivory.
Cut surface
Edge revealed
A cut edge shows the natural structure held inside every slab.
Natural depth
Light within
Fine mineral variation becomes more luminous as light moves across the surface.
Where it belongs
Travertine, at home.
SCENE 01
Around the table
Natural texture brings warmth to the places where we gather.
SCENE 02
By the bedside
Pair tactile stone with soft light for a calmer end to the day.
SCENE 03
In a quiet corner
A small pool of light gives everyday corners a sense of place.
SCENE 04
Along the hallway
Warm stone and gentle illumination make every arrival feel inviting.
From quarry to creation
Five stages of quiet craftsmanship.
Each piece begins as raw stone and moves through careful, unhurried steps. The aim is to reveal the material's character while shaping it for everyday use.
Material selection
Blocks are assessed for structure, tone and the natural depth of their pores.
Precision cutting
Diamond tools follow the slab's grain to create clean, workable sections.
Sculpting
The stone is hollowed and formed until its profile feels balanced from every angle.
Hand polishing
Finer abrasives refine the surface while keeping the stone's honest texture visible.
Final assembly
Lighting components and finished stone parts are fitted and checked one piece at a time.
Important · handling & care
Treat it as the rare object it is.
Travertine is genuine natural stone. Handle every piece with care and keep the surface dry, clean and free from abrasive products.
Support the stone body when moving.
Carry stone components with both hands and protect the edges from knocks during unpacking, styling or installation.
Give larger pieces two-person support.
Natural stone has real weight. Use a second pair of hands for larger components and never place weight on a thin edge.
Clean gently; dust often.
Use a dry, soft cloth. Avoid water, solvents, acids and abrasive cleaners, which can mark the porous surface.
Travertine, explained
Frequently asked questions.
A few simple answers before your natural stone piece arrives.
Is every travertine piece unique?
Yes. Pores, small voids, veining and tonal shifts are natural features of the stone. They may differ slightly from the photographs and from one piece to another.
Will travertine change colour over time?
Travertine can develop a gently warmer appearance as it settles into a room. Keep it away from prolonged moisture and direct chemical cleaners to preserve its finish.
How should I clean the stone?
Dust with a dry microfiber cloth. Do not spray cleaner directly onto the stone, wood trim or electrical components.
Can I request a specific vein or colour?
Natural variation is part of travertine, so a particular pore pattern, vein or tonal range cannot be selected or guaranteed.
Is natural variation a defect?
No. Variation is part of the material's character and is expected in genuine natural stone.
