A downlight should match the ceiling height and the beam you want across the seating area. Start with the room size, then pick a beam that covers the floor without a hard ring on the wall.
Lighting choices depend on the room, the ceiling height, and how the space is used through the day. A fitting that looks right on a drawing can still feel harsh once it is switched on, so it helps to check the beam, the colour, and the dimming together.
