yvonne, yes i guess we can use it in the dining. The dinining room is small and doesnt have any windows. the kitchen has a lot of natural light that will come across to the dining due to the open kitchen plan. We will be buying new furniture for the dining. We could buy a glass top table with wood chairs / wood table with wood chairs. The room will be painted offwhite similar color as the base of this fabric. All walls will be painted the same color by the builder, Afer taking possession of the house we can repaint it where needed for accent wall etc. Its an appartment, we live in India.

There is a specialty lighting store near me that I am going to soon with photos to work on lighting at my house. I will show them your photo and see if they have an idea. Probably won't be till Fri or Sat but will get back to you.

Hello dopcam, Anchor bolts have to be mounted on ceiling. If your false ceiling is already done you may have to get a section of it opened and after the work is done it may be closed. Of course after providing for the swing space. Thanks Nitin Cornerstone Designs Bangalore.

Romney, First thing is that requirement of light is measured in lumens. Secondly , you will have to look at the room requirements , colors on the wall, furniture, flooring etc. Even the temperature (i.e. warm or cool) of the lights is very important. Depending on your requirements an appropriate suggestion can be made. Please share some room pics along with query. Thanks, Nitin Cornerstone Designs, Bangalore.
