STATEMENT STANDING & TABLE LAMPS
“ Standing lamps are going to be huge in 2021 , the more sculptural the better . Not only do they act as an ornament as well as a light source and create a dramatic look , they also help create soft and relaxing lighting which can transform a room from day to night .
“ With more of us than ever spending additional time at home , using light to transform a space has never been so important . Using carefully placed lamps to carve new elements to a room allows spaces to be used for more than one thing , which is especially important for anyone working in a smaller space .
“ We love standing lamps because they can be moved from room to room , meaning you can keep the same lamp for years but find endless different uses for it .”
GEOMETRIC LIGHT FEATURES
“ We have seen geometric patterns come through in interiors for the past few years , in fabrics and wallpapers , and it ’ s finally putting its stamp on lighting . Geometric lighting will be huge in 2021 , with simple , repeating shapes and strong lines creating drama in minimal spaces . There has been a 30 % increase in searches for geometric lighting this year , and this looks set to continue rising .
“ While traditionally , we would have seen striking geometric lighting in large , minimal spaces , we are now seeing it come through in more traditional homes . People are getting braver and braver about mixing contemporary and classic decor .
“ The clash between contemporary geometric and more traditional design is a strong look that won ’ t be right for every home , but for those looking to be a bit more adventurous , it ’ s a great opportunity to experiment .”
