Light Up the Winter Months With Style
The winter can be an uplifting time of the year when you walk into a room and experience mists of warm light, filtered through shades of finesse that sets a subtle ambiance. The wide set of modern lighting options available on the market today can bring a sense of smooth relaxation to your living room or an enhanced brilliance of your work or study area. We’ve come a long way from the kerosene lantern, the 100-watt bulb and the barrage of uninspiring fixtures and lamps to choose from. Artists have hit the scene with architectural, award-winning designs that make you actually look forward to showering your rooms in light.
Normann Copenhagen – Norm 69: Ceilings no longer have to be plain and boring. The modern hanging light, Norm 69 by Simon Karkov, is a masterpiece that brings a fresh, pleasing atmosphere to any room. Organic in nature, serene shades transform a ceiling into a picture of harmony with the outdoors that once seemed so far away. With the team of Normann Copenhagen Companies in Denmark, putting on a fresh, new pair of glasses is what this company is all about. Have a bar or breakfast nook that needs a little distinction without cluttering up the surface? Hang two or three pendant lights, either positioned in a row or clustered to one side for an eye appealing change from the ordinary.
Pablo – Light Bench: The lighting trend of today centers more on presenting a decorative element than merely bringing light into a room. A ho-hum hallway or foyer can turn into a soft modern walkway with a stylish, illuminated bench, small enough to provide passing traffic, but large enough to seat two people comfortably. The Pablo Light Bench, a Pablo original, has a white translucent acrylic top and is supported by two clear acrylic ends. Showcase a favorite statue or prized art piece along one side of the light bench to really make an eclectic statement.
Pablo – Bel’Occhio: The Bel’Occhio, by Pablo, is another great buy this season. This table or floor lamp is an outstanding multi-positional and dimmable Halogen spotlight that has almost futuristic lighting qualities, particularly when illuminated in a darkened room. Pablo, founded in 1993 by Venezuelan – born Pablo Pardo, manufactures and designs innovative lighting and home accessories characterized by a determined devotion to utility and simplicity.
Winter can be a slow period of solitude and dejection or it can be your favorite uplifting time of the year. Escaping the norm can produce a daily adventure in your home when you reach for the light switch and anticipate illuminated works of art in every corner. Floor lamps, table lamps, hanging lamps, benches and more have become much more than just a way to light the darkness, using masters of contemporary design and style. Explore the new possibilities of light and turn your abode into an experience to appreciate.
