Hello. Not my pic (but my living room wall looks like this). I have a 1-story home with 10 foot ceilings. I want to add sconces on the outer boxes (upper boxes). I am not sure what height to install them (as they will be hardwired). I’ve read online that 60-66 inches from the ground is standard but that’s usually for 8-foot ceilings. ChatGPT recommends closer to 72 inches. A friend of mines suggested to put them right in the middle of the box molding, which for my trim is around 70 inches from the ground. I do want the room to feel a little more “grand” and the ceilings to appear “taller” and I’ve read putting them higher will emphasize that effect (sort of like the recommendations to put curtains for windows. closer to the ceiling for a more grand effect. Looking for some thoughts and opinions. Thank you!
