Ceiling lights

What hangs out in a room even when nobody’s there? Ceiling lights! From spotlights to flush ceiling lamps to pendants and chandeliers, they provide general light and their designs say specific things about style. Whether you want an industrial feel, a natural touch, a retro vibe or another look, we have a ceiling light for you (and to keep your furniture company).

Big personality – much smaller price tag

A pendant lamp, like most lamps, has not one but two jobs. It has to be functional and beautiful. It needs to spread a good light – and look really nice while doing it. ZEBRASÄV is a nice example of a pendant lamp that handles both jobs with ease. The small price tag is a bonus.

It’s time to light things up

Give your home a fresh style and set the mood by upgrading your ceiling lighting. Pendant lamps and ceiling lights illuminate your dining table, guide you through (dark) hallways, and give you a great overview. Whether your interior has an industrial feel or a retro vibe, we have the ceiling light that fits.

Let your ceiling light be a bright spot in your home. With a ceiling light from IKEA, you can light a room with style. Whether you’re looking for a low hanging chandelier, an intricately designed pendant lamp or a ceiling track of spotlights, you’ll find plenty to choose from in our range. 

Ceiling lights as a general light source

When choosing a ceiling light, the first question you need to answer is what it’s going to be used for. 

As a general light source, a semi-flush, pendant light or chandelier located near the centre of the room can be a good choice. If you want to highlight a part of your décor, a ceiling track with spotlights might do the trick. If you’re looking to light a workspace, such as a desk or a kitchen island – consider a flush ceiling light located directly above the work area.  

The right ceiling light for the right room

The second question is which room you’re lighting, and what you’re doing in the room. 

  • In the hallway, you’ll want bright, no-fuss ceiling lights to help you grab your keys and go.
  • The kitchen needs clear, focused light perfect for slicing, stirring, and staying on task.
  • Over in the dining room, a well-placed pendant adds that warm glow that makes every meal feel special.
  • For living rooms and children’s rooms, where the mood changes throughout the day, a dimmable ceiling light gives you flexibility from playtime to downtime.
  • And don’t forget the attic whether it’s a workspace, storage spot or secret retreat, a flush-fitting ceiling light keeps things bright without cramping the space.

Remember to mind your head!

Our ceiling light collection has something for every kind of room. But before you decide, you should consider the height of your ceilings. 

If you have particularly low ceilings, a pendant or modern chandelier could prove to be a bit of an obstacle. If so, look for flush ceiling lights, LED spotlights, or recessed lighting, so you don’t risk bumping your head.  

If you do have a high ceiling, however, our pendant lamps and shades are a great place to start. We have pendant lamps and shades available in various different designs, letting you express your individual style. 

Ceiling lights as interior design

Decorating with light can be a tricky, but fun challenge. You need to consider both the direction and intensity of the light, since each light source is going to affect the mood of the room. And, since nothing draws attention quite like a source of light, it doesn’t hurt if the lamp is looking gorgeous as well.

How do you install a ceiling light?

If you’re not confident installing a ceiling light yourself, it’s always best to contact a trained electrician.
