Lighting

With the right lighting, you can completely transform a room. Lighting can create an inviting atmosphere and illuminate your home’s unique personality. Brighten up the most unexpected of places or tease beautiful shadows to produce warmth and intimacy—lighting is an essential element to any home in terms of both style and functionality.

Ways to Light Up Your Home in Style:

1. Before buying a new light fixture, you should measure the space and drop to ensure it provides the look you’re after.
2. Decide what purpose your lighting will serve: Will it sit on the floor or be mounted to the ceiling or wall?
3. Each room in your home should have a mix of lighting, depending on the layout. Highlight key areas and layer lighting to strike the perfect balance.
4. Pay close attention to room size. For a larger space like a living room or dining room, a set of pendant lights or a chandelier make for a beautiful focal point. In smaller spaces, a sleek floor lamp or vintage wall lights can illuminate wall art and other accessories.
5. For a classy Art Deco vibe, choose a lamp with a black or chrome base. A rattan or straw pendant light will give your kitchen some warm, rustic appeal, while a crystal chandelier can offer a luxurious glow to any dining table.
6. Want to make your garden shine? A set of outdoor solar fence lights can brighten up a wall deck or patio, made from durable plastic to withstand weather , while also giving your garden a contemporary feel.
7. Use accent lighting to draw focus to areas that go unnoticed.
8. Remember: Less is more. Though an ornate chandelier will always look timeless, it sometimes pays to use a subtle lighting fixture, especially if your home décor relies more on minimalist aspects and neutral tones.
