24 Bedroom Last year saw a fondness of grey and ‘greige’ with cold metals complementing these colours in lighting and decorative accessories. However, 2020 is celebrating warmer metals with golds, coppers and brass taking a front seat. These colours are the ideal partner for the soft furnishings of the bedroom, to be used for table lamps or ceiling fixtures, creating a welcoming ambience. The picture below appropriately showcases the warm glow of a copper coloured table lamp that can be utilised in the bedroom. Geometric shapes are another significant trend for both lighting and interior design for 2020. The key to effectiveness for this trend is geometric shapes with clean lines, they should be bold and sharp shapes to balance the softness of the bedroom. The shapes can be impactful in a variety of lighting types, from ceiling structures, table lamps to wall lights as seen in the pictures below.
