Nature Inspired
One of the biggest lighting trends this year is nature inspired, with must-have wooden, rattan and bamboo pendants. This is a look that goes with almost any theme, whether you want to add a bohemian feel, earthy vibe, or simply style up neutral décor. These wooden pendant light shades also give off a lovely glow, helping to make a room feel cosy and homely.
Glamorous Gold
During the last couple of years, copper has been one of the biggest lighting trends. However, for 2018, gold is making a comeback. Whether you choose an industrial style pendant, a traditional chandelier, table lamps, or a statement floor lamp, gold lighting can lift an interior while also making a chic design statement.
Art Deco
Upcycling and vintage have been big interior design trends, but this year, the focus is on the art deco period. An art deco ceiling pendant will work so many different styles, including monochrome, modern, vintage and traditional. Using gold, marble and glass, art deco lighting is all about adding a touch of luxury to your home.
Black and White
Monochrome is always a popular style with designers, but this year it’s back on a big scale. Fashionable and modern, black and white lighting can update any interior in seconds. It’s also a very elegant and chic trend, making a room feel more expensive with very little effort – which is perfect when you have a busy family life!
Tripod Floor Lamps
Floor lamps are a great addition to any room and can be used to light up dark corners, creating the illusion of more space. The floor lamp of choice for 2018 is the tripod. A tripod lamp can really alter the mood and is great for a reading nook, placed near a sofa, or to add soft lighting to a bedroom. Select a wooden or gold base to make your room super stylish.
Lighting is an important accessory and one that can really change how we feel about our homes. Try one of these latest lighting trends to boost your interior.
