Nine Light Pendant Agate & Gold , £ 828 , Amos Lighting
Colour and scale are often the point of focus when it comes to lighting , and rattan and boho aesthetics have definitely been having their moment . This year , however , we will see lighting fixtures in imaginative materials . Scandinavianinspired glass pendants are great for introducing a subtle difference while at the same time striking . For a more industrial finish , opt for metal and concrete , or go opulent with mirrored brass ,
" A unique design that incorporates mirrored glass , our Torsa chandelier brings its surroundings to life through its reflective and engaging appearance ."
Ian Cameron , creative director , Cameron Design House something we are expected to see across interiors this year . A reflective material will feel elegant and classy while allowing natural light to bounce around the room . Introduce materials that will emphasise the space and add some drama ; now ’ s your time to get imaginative .
“ Using a lighting fixture in an unusual material creates a unique and eye-catching aesthetic . While adding an element of character and personality to the space , it can transform the purpose of a room by standing out from the rest of the interior - making it the focal point or a good conversation starter for when guests are around . Certain materials like wood or cork can add an element of warmth but , for a more spectacular feel , opt for a volcanic rock design displaying an array of vibrant colours to impressively illuminate the space .”
