Your house or apartment could have the latest kitchen appliances and décor, a luxurious bathroom, and a living room that’s decorated with contemporary class in mind, but none of that would make any difference without proper lighting. Unless your glamorous décor is aesthetically highlighted by intelligent light selections and placements, you home will never look as good as it should. We are about to share some ideas on how to add some glam to your home lighting next.
Geometric Patterns for Lamp Shades
Take a look back through the sands of time and use the internet to gaze at how fashion was displayed with class and glamour in one package in the 1920s. More than a century later, some of these trends are coming back into fashion with astounding success. Lamp shades with geometric patterns are an ideal example. Geometric patterns are also perfectly suited for media fixtures on ceiling suspender lights, except chandeliers.
Glamour Highlighted
If you don’t have an accent wall yet in your home, you should really consider it. It could be an intricately decorated wall with complex patterns that puts it in stark contrast with the rest of the room’s walls, or a single wall could sport a beautiful, hand drawn mural. Other ideas include ornate vases, unique art, or a wall of beautifully mounted photographs that mean the most to you.
Whatever you decide to go with, just make sure that the lighting fixtures, wattage, and positioning are aesthetically highlighting it. Along with the lighting effects, the fixtures should match the theme of the wall in perfect harmony as well. Adjustable glass lights, cylindrical brass lights, and traditional focus lights are all good ideas, but their usefulness will vary, depending on how you have designed your accent wall.
The Classic Chandelier
No other ambient light source is more profoundly glamorous than a large, single piece chandelier, provided that you have enough space to accommodate it. From the Queen’s Ball to modern mansions, giant chandeliers have always been an inseparable part of large halls and living rooms. Even if you do not have the space for it, opt for small but ornate chandeliers, perfectly spaced to add both glamour and sectional lighting to a large room.
Energy Conscious Lighting and Glam Lighting are Not Opposing Concepts Today
Thanks to LED lights, dimmer switches, motion sensors and smart lighting systems, we can still be extremely energy-efficient, without sacrificing on the glam in any way. You can find and order bulk electrical supplies from Power Point Electrics, a website that sells everything you need to make your glam lighting project energy-efficient, as well as the lights, wires, and fixtures themselves.
Rooms designed in minimalistic décor also look regal with adequate lighting, while rooms with an abundance of artistic splendour could look gloomy and cluttered without it. Just be sure to keep the ideas and pointers here in mind, so that your home lighting adds to whatever theme you may have going in your home right now, or plan to bring in soon.
