When thinking about lighting, many people primarily focus on whether it adequately illuminates their space. They might casually add a lamp or two simply because it seems like the norm. While lamps are indeed a valuable addition, considering other forms of decorative lighting can truly transform a room.

 

Allowing different levels of light into a space really adds to the aesthetic and atmosphere. Instead of just adding a lamp along with your general lighting, think about introducing wall sconces or a chandelier. Chandeliers are not just for foyers and dining rooms—placing one in a living room or bedroom with high ceilings can transform the space. Wall sconces can add an interesting element to spaces, whether in bathrooms next to mirrors instead of a vanity light or placed on either side of a piece of artwork throughout your home.

 

Beyond adding more fixtures, it’s essential to consider the style and feel of the space. There is a wide array of unique and beautiful light fixtures that can serve as artistic elements in a room. Don't be afraid to step outside the ordinary and find a fixture that catches your attention - it's bound to be a conversation starter at your next gathering.

 

Taking a risk with fun and playful fixtures is an excellent way to infuse your personal style and character into a space while also providing a functional layer of light.
