[dropcap1]S[/dropcap1]pring is the season that makes you think of light, bright and fun interiors. Your lighting choices play a big role in achieving these things. Here are the lighting trends you should know about and use in your space.
Rose-Tinted Lighting
Light fittings in gold, copper, and rose gold are a huge trend this year, and they’re a great way to give your space more warmth. Don’t be afraid to mix different metals together for a show-stopping effect.
Artistic Retro
Industrial designs that look straight out of a warehouse are being made over with a touch of sophisticated retro. The lamps and fixtures look a bit old school, but done in interesting metals or even bright colours that make them more artistic. Industrial-style lamps in jewel tones are an example of how to make the old work in a bright new way.
Fuss-Free Lights
If you like the idea of having a minimalist light fixture, then this trend is perfect for you. Fuss-free lighting can include nothing more than a lightbulb and metal ring, or perhaps recessed tracks that look like lines across the ceiling but are fitted with small spotlights. They’re a great way to open up your space.
Hidden Lighting
Having LED lights inside drawers and cabinets is a clever way to use lighting a bit more creatively, plus it’s really useful when you’re looking for something late at night. You can even make the lights different colours to add some personal style to every inch of your space.
Statement Pendants
If you want to make a statement with your lighting choices, opt for a gorgeous statement pendant. There are a variety of artistic and interesting pendants that are heating up the trends this spring, from hive pendants that are made from weaves of steel to mimic a beehive to wooden pendants, and even pendants designed to look like cages of metal. Geometrical pendants are the modern take on the chandelier, and more versatile, while keeping your space eye-catching.
