Lights which automatically turn on when I enter a room (especially in the kitchen and in the hallway from the bedroom to the bathroom) and lights inside my wardrobes (especially inside the one in the bedroom: I often get up earlier than my hubby, and it may be still dark outside, and I don't want to wake him up while I'm looking for my stockings).

Hello! This is a really stylish pendant light and could look great in a living room but please bear in mind the type of light you will get from it. Firstly, it will cast a pool of light straight down which, on its own, is neither flattering to the room nor the people in it. Accompanied with accent lighting such as wall lights or lamps, it could work. Secondly, unlike your cotton shade, the bulb will be more exposed and therefore not ideal if above a sitting area. Try a pearlised or decorative bulb at a lower wattage to avoid glare. Hope this helps Jennifer

Just as an alternative you could look at a French style door. It will still give up that grown up feel. I would definitely opt for painted rather than wood, something that doesn't contrast with the wall too much so they're not imposing but still remain a feature. I can't see the furniture properly but it looks as if it would go. Btw my brother recently had wood wardrobes installed probably about 10ft long and they were 5k. He used the company who manufactured and installed his kitchen in the end but the quotes were all around that mark or higher (ouch!). Layer the bed with cushions and throws and at least you'll get that feeling of calm and tranquility!
