How to decorate and light up your home to provide more comfort
Floor lamps are versatile both for decorating and lighting your surroundings. You can feature it in the living room, bedroom, or in any corner of the house. It is a practical item providing a special touch to the composition, as well as adding complementary light to the space. It is ideal to place your lights on the side of sofas, armchairs, and beds, providing light when you read a book and bringing a sense of comfort to your living room or bedroom.
Firstly, choosing the right floor lamps to match your decor is essential. These items complement other furniture and improve the decoration. There are several styles and sizes for all preferences and spaces. Because it consists of a long pole and a floor stand, the floor lamp provides light over a larger area than a table or wall lamp. Furthermore, depending on the dome and the lamp used, the floor lamp creates different lighting effects.
In general, floor lamps can be used to complement the main lighting prenent in the room. But this piece can either highlight a single point or create an intimate and warm atmosphere throughout the room. In addition to the different lighting effects, the floor lamp can also be interpreted as a decorative piece. Depending on the purpose, you can choose a more functional and adjustable light, or, depending on the amount of space available, you may need to opt for a smaller-sized piece.
Living room
In the living room, the floor lamp is used generally, as a highlight piece, in the corner of the room. This way, the item does not interfere with the movement of people and evenly brightens the whole room.
The floor lamp in the living room can also have a low-intensity lamp to create a cosier atmosphere. You can also choose to use the floor lamp with a brighter light. Next to an armchair or a wide chair, the floor lamp creates a restful and reading atmosphere.
Bedroom
In the bedroom, the floor lamp can replace the table lamp. You can place a floor lamp next to the bed or an armchair, creating a resting space without the need for central lighting within the room.
Office
It has become increasingly common for floor lamps to provide lighting in offices and work areas. The old concept of a formal and clean office has given way to a welcoming space where employees can feel more comfortable while working. In the office, floor lamps can create both soft and functional lighting. You can use your creativity and place the piece in corners or next to chairs and desks.
Matching floor lamps to your decor
Neutral and classic decoration
If the room has neutral decor, you can insert a floor lamp with a different colour. For example, in a room featuring white, a floor lamp with a black dome will be suitable as it will stand out. If you want to keep the atmosphere simple, add a neutral floor lamp in the same colour as the rest of the decoration and furniture.
Modern decoration
For contemporary spaces, we suggest you choose a floor lamp with a modern design. A modern floor lamp can have different types of domes, such as metallic or coloured.
Some unique models bring even more style to the decor, such as floor lamps that mimic cinema spotlights or those with a futuristic glass dome.
