Bedside pendant lights can and should hang preferably low as in the image adjacent. When installed like this the lights will not be glary as you will not be viewing the intense point source of light directly and the light will still be cast where you need. Choose warm white 3000K lamps for a cosier feel but bif you are after good working light then cool white or daylight may be more suitable. If you have other lights in the room it is suggested that they are all the same colour temperature as when different temperatures are juxtaposed they can feel very conflicting. This style of bedside lighting has become commonplace in the modern house in recent years as bedside table space is limited. This idea dispenses for the need for bedside table lamps.
