Lamps & Lamp Shades
Light up the room with a stunning lamp to capture attention and create a moody atmosphere. Nothing else can switch a dull, cold space into a warm, cosy and inviting place quite like a lamp. The type of lamp you choose will lift the general vibe of the room while complementing your décor. So how to choose the right one? We’re here to help with some quick lamp buying tips.
Finding the Right Lamp for You
- Decide where you’ll put the lamp before you buy – sit in the space next to where you plan on placing the lamp to get a feel for how it’ll look and how functional it’ll be.
- The height and width of your lamp will be determined by the room’s décor, as well as the size of the space. The bottom of the lamp shade should be no higher than eye level, so make sure that you can’t see the neck of the light bulb when you sit or stand next to the lamp.
- If the base of your lamp is round, use a round shade. A lamp with a square or rectangular base pairs well with a square shade.
- Lampshades come in a variety of materials. Linen and raffia lamp shades diffuse light and give the room a much softer glow, creating an intimate feel, while a cotton lampshade provides a brighter, much crisper light.
- For the bedroom, choose something that has a contemporary feel and gives off a soft, romantic sense of ambience, like a lamp with a smoky glass or chrome shade. A warm white light bulb will also help create a moody atmosphere.
- Lamps with an opaque or dark shade are perfect for the living room, helping to minimise glare while watching TV. If you have downlights, use lamps to lighten up dark corners.
- An adjustable desk lamp can make a great addition to any home office, either in a traditional green shell or in a bright, playful tone with a metal finish.
- Floor lamps have a timeless elegance that work with almost any type of décor. Sit one behind a sofa or beside a curtain, or place one next to a desk. You can even mix and match table and floor lamps to create a more relaxed atmosphere.
