The art deco difference: flush mounts explained

A flush mount ceiling light is a light fixture designed to sit directly against the ceiling, offering a streamlined profile. This design is particularly well-suited for rooms with low ceilings, as it provides ample illumination without taking up precious vertical space.

These fixtures embody the distinctive style of the Art Deco era, characterized by bold geometric patterns, sleek lines, and opulent materials like polished chrome, brass, and frosted or molded glass. They seamlessly integrate into both classic and modern interiors, adding a touch of old-world glamour that feels surprisingly fresh.

When the flush mount hugs the ceiling tightly, it is ideal for spaces where every inch of height matters. A semi-flush mount, on the other hand, hangs down a few inches, creating a small gap between the fixture and the ceiling. Check out our guide How to Choose the Correct Ceiling Light Fixture: Flush or Semi-Flush Mount

This allows for more intricate designs and a slightly more dramatic visual presence, often preferred in rooms with standard or slightly higher ceilings (9 feet and above). Both styles bring the unmistakable elegance of Art Deco to your home.

Strategic selection: Choosing your Art Deco flush mount

Selecting the perfect Art Deco flush mount ceiling light requires a thoughtful approach, ensuring it complements your space both aesthetically and functionally. As Mark Major of Speirs + Major emphasizes in an article: "Good lighting is not simply about how well we see – it is also about how we feel." (1)

Here's how to achieve that balance with Art Deco lighting:

Proportion and placement

When choosing an Art Deco flush mount ceiling light, size truly matters. For rooms 100 square feet or less, aim for a diameter between 12 and 24 inches to ensure the fixture is proportionate to the space and provides adequate illumination. For larger areas, consider fixtures wider than 24 inches.

Since flush mounts are perfect for low ceilings, strategically place them in hallways, bedrooms, bathrooms, or any area where you need illumination without sacrificing headroom.

Additional notes:

  • Calculating fixture diameter: A common rule of thumb for estimating ideal fixture diameter (in inches) is to add the room's length and width (in feet). For example, a 10 feet x 12 feet room = 22 feet. Thus, an ideal fixture diameter would be around 22 inches.
  • Lumens by room function:
    • Foyer/ entryway: Typically needs about 10-20 lumens/sq ft for a warm, welcoming ambiance. However, for a larger main entrance, 20-30 lumens/sq ft might be needed.
    • Living room/ bedroom: 10-20 lumens/sq ft (ambient lighting).
    • Kitchen/ bathroom: 70-80 lumens/sq ft (clear lighting needed for tasks).
    • Dining room: 30-40 lumens/sq ft.
    • Home office: 50-70 lumens/sq ft.

  • Wall and furniture colors: If your room has dark-colored walls or furniture, you may need to increase the recommended lumens to compensate for the slight light absorption.
  • Layered lighting: This table focuses on general illumination from flush mount lights. For a comprehensive and flexible lighting scheme, consider combining your flush mount with other types of lighting such as wall sconces, table lamps, or floor lamps.
  • Dimmable options: Always prioritize selecting dimmable lights. This flexibility allows you to easily adjust the light intensity to suit your needs and mood at any given time.

Style synchronization

Select a style that complements your existing decor. Whether you're aiming for a cohesive 1920s-inspired look or simply want to add a touch of vintage glamour to a contemporary setting, consider the geometric patterns, metallic finishes, and glass types that will best complement your space. The right fixture can tie a room together beautifully.

Material matters

Art Deco is synonymous with luxury and distinct materials.

When selecting your flush mount Art Deco ceiling light, pay attention to the finishes. Polished chrome offers a sleek, industrial gleam, while gold Art Deco flush mount ceiling light options exude opulence and warmth. Glass is also paramount: frosted, milk glass, or unique patterned glass will diffuse light differently and contribute to the overall ambiance.
