Choosing the Right Lighting
How do I choose the right light for my home?
The right light depends on the size of the room, ceiling height, purpose of the space, furniture layout and your preferred interior style.
For example:
- Kitchen – pendant lights or linear LED pendant lights
- Dining room – pendant lights or chandeliers
- Living room – chandeliers, pendant lights or ceiling lights
- Bedroom – ceiling lights, pendant lights, wall lights or table lamps
- Bathroom – suitable bathroom and vanity lighting
- Hallway – ceiling lights, wall lights or recessed lighting
- Staircase – pendant lights, chandeliers or stair lighting
- Entrance – statement pendant lights, chandeliers or ceiling lights
- Outdoor areas – outdoor lights with a suitable IP rating
If you are unsure, our Auckland lighting team can help you compare different options.
How do I choose pendant lights for a kitchen island?
When choosing kitchen island pendant lights, consider the length and width of the island, ceiling height, number of pendants and overall visual balance.
For a long kitchen island, a linear pendant or multiple smaller pendant lights can work well.
The pendant should provide useful task lighting without obstructing the view across the kitchen.
The hanging height is also important. The light should be high enough for comfortable use while still providing effective illumination.
Explore our kitchen island and kitchen bar pendant lights.
What size chandelier should I choose?
The right chandelier size depends on the size of the room, ceiling height, dining table or furniture dimensions and the visual impact you want to create.
For a dining room, the chandelier should generally be proportionate to the dining table.
For staircases, entrances and double-height spaces, ceiling height and viewing distance become particularly important.
If you are choosing a large chandelier, we recommend visiting one of our Auckland showrooms to view similar fittings in person.
Explore our chandelier collection.
What lighting is best for a dining room?
Pendant lights and chandeliers are popular choices for dining rooms because they create a visual focal point above the dining table.
For a long rectangular table, a linear pendant or elongated chandelier can work particularly well.
For a round dining table, a round pendant or chandelier can create a more balanced look.
Explore our dining room lighting collection.
What lighting is best for a living room?
Living rooms usually benefit from a combination of general lighting and decorative lighting.
Depending on the room, suitable options can include:
- LED ceiling lights
- Chandeliers
- Pendant lights
- Wall lights
- Floor lamps
- Table lamps
The best combination depends on the room size, ceiling height, furniture layout and atmosphere you want to create.
How do I choose lighting for a bedroom?
Bedroom lighting should provide comfortable general illumination without feeling too harsh.
LED ceiling lights, pendant lights, wall lights, bedside lights and table lamps can all be used depending on the layout.
Warm white lighting is often preferred in bedrooms because it creates a softer and more relaxing atmosphere.
What lighting is suitable for a staircase?
Staircases often provide an opportunity to use lighting as a design feature.
Depending on ceiling height and the staircase layout, suitable options can include pendant lights, chandeliers, wall lights and dedicated stair lighting.
For double-height staircases, a large pendant or chandelier can create a strong focal point.
Explore our stairway lighting collection.
LED Lighting & Colour Temperature
What is the difference between LED lighting and traditional light bulbs?
LED lighting generally uses less energy than traditional incandescent lighting and can provide a long service life.
Some Eden Lighting products use integrated LED technology, while other fittings use replaceable bulbs such as E27, E14, GU10 or G9.
Always check the individual product specifications to confirm the required light source.
Are LED lights dimmable?
Some LED lights are dimmable and others are not.
Dimmability depends on the specific light fitting and LED driver.
Always check the individual product specifications before purchasing.
If you require a dimmable LED light, contact us before ordering so we can confirm compatibility with your intended dimmer.
What colour temperature is best for a home?
The most suitable colour temperature depends on the room and the atmosphere you want to create.
3000K warm white is popular for living rooms, bedrooms and dining areas because it creates a warm and comfortable atmosphere.
4000K natural or neutral white can work well in kitchens, bathrooms, offices and functional areas where a clearer light is preferred.
6000K cool white produces a cooler and brighter appearance and may suit certain functional spaces.
Some Eden Lighting products allow you to switch between different colour temperatures. Always check the individual product specifications.
What is the difference between 3000K, 4000K and 6000K?
3000K produces a warm and comfortable light.
4000K produces a more neutral and natural-looking white light.
6000K produces a cooler and brighter-looking white light.
The best option depends on the room, interior design and the atmosphere you want to create.
Light Bulbs
Are light bulbs included with your lighting?
It depends on the individual product.
Some lights have built-in LED technology, while other fittings require separate light bulbs.
Common bulb types include E27, E14, GU10 and G9.
Please check the individual product page before purchasing.
Which light bulb do I need for my pendant light?
The correct bulb depends on the lamp holder used in the fitting.
Common options include E27, E14, GU10 and G9.
Always check the product specifications before purchasing a replacement bulb.
If you are unsure, contact Eden Lighting with the product code or a photo of the fitting and our team can help identify the appropriate bulb.
New Zealand Electrical Requirements
Are Eden Lighting lights suitable for New Zealand homes?
Yes. Eden Lighting supplies lighting designed for the New Zealand market.
Applicable products are supplied to meet relevant New Zealand and Australian electrical requirements, with product compliance information available where applicable.

What voltage are Eden Lighting lights designed for?
Our residential lighting products are designed for the New Zealand electrical market and commonly use 220–240V specifications, depending on the individual product.
Always check the product specifications before installation.
Outdoor Lighting
What IP rating do I need for outdoor lighting?
The appropriate IP rating depends on where the light will be installed and how much exposure it will have to rain, water, dust and weather.
A covered outdoor area may have different requirements from a fully exposed exterior wall.
Always check the IP rating of the individual product before installation.
If you are unsure which outdoor light is suitable, contact our lighting team before purchasing.
Explore our outdoor lighting collection.
Can I use an indoor light outdoors?
Not necessarily.
A light designed for indoor use should not automatically be installed outdoors.

Always check the manufacturer's specifications before installing a light outdoors.
