How To: Amplify In-Home Lighting
When it comes to interior design, lighting is crucial. Light fixtures can amplify a space and make a room feel vibrant, calm, or even moody. Whatever the vibe of the space may be, look to lighting to bring that extra level of luxury & elegance. Read more to learn how to amplify your in-home lighting for an elevated home.
Creating a Swanky Feel
Bedroom lighting should make the space feel relaxing and tranquil. If you have a love for contemporary interior design, then opt for simplistic furniture and wall paint while bringing in that elevated look and feel with a neat light fixture. You'll want a light fixture that compliments the space without taking away from the relaxation of the room. This light fixture from Uttermost was used in our Ascaya Project and made this room pop with elegance and a futuristic feel.
Bringing Light to The Outdoors
Outdoor living is a fun way to entertain guests and family all year round. If you're looking to bring the entertainment to the backyard, then you'll definitely need light fixtures that amplify the space. This Tuscan-inspired backyard design features black rod iron chandeliers that are remote controlled and line the accented ceiling. These are great because even in the daytime, the light fixtures make a statement without being turned on, but at night, these fixtures take center stage with their vibrancy.
Unique & Functional
When homeowners ask for a design that is uniquely theirs, there's no better time to mix and match materials! This previous project in North Las Vegas features rustic and statement pieces for light fixtures in the kitchen. The metal chandeliers allow for the light to reflect off of the beams and bring a warm glow to the space. With grey furniture and brown cabinets, it was crucial that the light fixtures have a warmer feel to them in order to bring in a much lighter feel to the space. Don't be afraid to mix and match materials, your creativity will surely shine through!
Bigger and Brighter
When you have a grand room to fill, sometimes the easiest trick to making the space feel cohesive and warmer is by bringing in large light fixtures that elevate the room in more ways than one. Our Ascaya Project needed upscale lighting and a modern feel, so we opted for three chandeliers above the kitchen island that were bright enough to fill the kitchen as well as surrounding areas. This allowed for these to be the focal lighting in the space as well as a beautiful detail to fix upon!
Lighting is vital to any space, so be sure to give your light fixtures some thought for your next project! Whatever you choose, by adding light fixtures to a room, you'll feel as though the space is more cohesive, relaxing, and complete. You can find more light inspiration on our website under "Projects!"
