Everything Is Illuminated

Lighting is one of the most crucial elements for every interior and exterior design, not just in terms of function, but also for its mood-enhancing and decorative properties. In the months to come, we can expect to enjoy jaw-dropping decorative lighting options with eco-friendly bulbs and enhanced functionality.

THE STATEMENT-MAKERS

Decorative lighting is coming into its own in 2021, says Streamlight’s Brad Kalish. “It is not only about how we light our homes, but what the decorative fittings look like. Bedside lamps, chandeliers, pendants and floor lamps should cry out for attention. Sculptural elements in lighting objects are in vogue.”

The team at Radiant Lighting agrees. “Lighting may be functional but it can also play an important decorative role in a space. With people spending more and more time at home these days, there’s an emphasis on creating spaces that are beautiful to look at. Statement lighting is going to be big in 2021.

“This is especially true for ceiling fixtures because a bold luminaire can serve as a focal point in a room. Big bold fixtures in unusual shapes and designs will always attract the eye and give the room that wow factor.”
