Corridors
Imagine walking into a long corridor with some beat pendant lamps inspired by Indian vessels, hand-beaten for an ethnic appeal. Check out Anima Domus’s hanging light collection which has been curated for people with a luxurious taste. It will reflect light off the paintings and vases placed in the corridor. You could place a big pendant light in the middle or at the end of a corridor or a series of lights uniformly placed along the corridor.
Living Room Corner
This is where you spend the most time in. Also, it is the first room that your guests see. It should reflect your style, thoughts, and individuality. You can use multiple lights to create a beautiful effect throughout the space. You can also use a cluster of lights in similar designs but different sizes.
Above the windows
Imagine tall French windows stretching from floor to ceiling. Hanging a chandelier near these windows can turn your place into a chic Parisian apartment. Even a simple dome light can make the whole place look a lot richer and cozier.
Next to the mirrors
You need good lights when you are looking at yourself. Lights near mirrors will reflect more lights and create a surreal atmosphere in the corner. Mirrors are a smart way to make small spaces appear bigger, and a floor lamp or pendant lamp can make the space look more interesting. A large painting on the opposite wall and plants surrounding the mirror can enhance even a simple walkway between rooms.
Above the study
Rather than having a table lamp clutter your desk, you can have a bent floor lamp next to your study table. It gives a modern feel to your place of work and recreation. A lot of time is going to be spent here so why not create an inviting, well-lit space where you can be productive for the most part of the day.
Conclusion
Lighting should be an integral part when planning your interiors so in case you are starting from scratch. Whichever lights you choose, it is the placement that will bring out its full character and aesthetic. Whichever corner you choose to show off should have an interesting backdrop, sculpture, vase or a planter. There are a million different combinations of color schemes you can think of.
The right lights can create an ambiance suitable to what they are being used for – whether it’s for a party or to study, work or just a place where you chill on the weekends. Check out some modern simplistic Italian lamps online.
