I found a fan with an uplight
which I think would add light without creating glare (esp. diffusing
off a flat-finish white ceiling) and add to the illusion of a higher
ceiling. However, the blades of the fan extend to 12" below the
ceiling (just 6 '5" off the floor).
Use a shorter pipe (drop down pipe ?). Replace the original pipe with
a shorter one, located in the fan section at the store.
Oh, a shorter "Downrod"

I have a flush mount fan in my bedroom and use two torch type lights
that have dimmers in corners to light up the room. Works fine for me.
