With the upcoming festive season, lights are getting a makeover of sorts as they tread the tightrope of balancing form and function. And they are doing this with a sustainable twist too. Experts weigh in.
FESTIVE FUSION
This festive season, there is a growing trend toward accent lighting that transforms spaces with a festive glow while maintaining functionality. Hafele’s Architectural Lighting Range offers a blend of ambient and task lighting perfect for festive occasions. “The range, including options like downlights and spotlights, allows for creative installations that bring warmth and highlight architectural elements. Our focus on customisable luminaire combinations helps set the right festive mood with ease, combining style with energy efficiency to brighten celebrations,” says Sunil Punia, Business Head - Lighting & Surfaces and Water Solutions, Hafele India.
Likewise, lighting products are essential for festive home decor as they create ambience and warmth. Visionnaire’s Nomad Collection 2024 introduces a range of lighting options that showcase progressive designs, fine Italian craftsmanship and new-age materials. The new collection offers a variety of lamps that includes the Polaris Suspension Lamp by Alessandro La Spada, the Sputnik Chandelier, the Sputnik-Oxy Pendant Lamp by Draga & Aurel and the Parade suspension lighting system by StudioPepe.
