OK... but the wire wont be lower as it is fixed now. The wire in the pics below is the wall facing each other. They were leveled on equal height but the beam on one wall makes it seem a little above. But i think you guys are absolutely right that up and down lights wont look good there. I think you are right about down lights lessismoore. Would it look good if i go with two different lights on opposite walls??? it would look odd right.

Yes the asbury is a bit of a small sconce for that mirror. Also the wattage of the bulb at 60w may feel a bit dim. Something more like the Arcadia from Norwell would be better. It s a bit chunkier and the glass shade will arch down. And its a 75w regular bulb which give you better light! http://www.norwellinc.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1386%3Aarcadia128785-pn&catid=34%3Aadmin&Itemid=39

This will help get some light into the middle of your space. http://www.westelm.com/m/products/overarching-floor-lamp-antique-bronze-w890/?pkey=cfloor-lamps You could also do end tables or a console behind the couch and place table lamps on either. It doesn't look like you have any seating near the edge of your space and your existing lighting seems to be positioned at the edges of the room. So I'm not sure if sconces would help much.

I like the room but it looks a bit empty. Possibly some contemporary low interesting cabinet on either side of the fireplace some organic baskets or metal vessels of some sort on top of the cabinets. It will fill in the bareness between cabinet and sconces. Roll down textured shades at the windows would add a nice fill in touch and add privacy and block light. Or simple linen floor to ceiling curtains on rods at ceiling height. Here are three rooms with free standing cabinets and long curtains at the windows. You might like these ideas for not. Art work could be under the scones with lamp for ambient lighting Again simeple cabinets and surprise, a TV stand too. This is a lovely idea too with the twigs; could change seasonally. I like the benches for warmth and texture and softness and the chandelier adds a dramatic touch. Good luck with your lovely room!
