Additional lighting to emphasise the interior's individuality
When developing a lighting concept, it's essential to pay attention to all interior elements that create a harmonious atmosphere. Primary lighting fixtures (such as central chandeliers or spotlights) are chosen first. However, it's the additional lighting that can change the room's ambience, conceal its flaws, and accentuate its advantages.
What is additional lighting?
The main task of additional lighting is to zone the space, highlight decorative elements, and create a specific atmosphere to achieve harmony in the interior. The most popular types of additional lighting include wall sconces, floor lamps, table lamps, and decorative lighting.
Wall Sconces
Wall lighting fixtures can serve multiple functions. Sconces are one of the most common options for localised lighting near the bed in a bedroom. Wall sconces are used for room zoning and accentuating interior elements, such as paintings and mirrors. They can create a cosy and romantic atmosphere in the room.
The choice of wall lighting fixtures depends on their purpose. For localised lighting near the bed, we recommend choosing wall sconces with adjustable brightness. This way, you can create a cosy atmosphere in the bedroom, read books before sleep, and enjoy relaxation. For illuminating interior elements, we advise choosing lighting fixtures with matte lampshades. If the lamps are intended for illuminating paintings or mirrors, they should be placed on both sides. Additional wall lighting in the bathroom, which you plan to place near the mirror, should be bright enough and as close as possible to natural daylight.
Floor Lamps
Floor lamps have several advantages, one of which is their mobility. You can place them in areas where additional or localised lighting is needed, for example, for comfortable reading or crafting in the relaxation area. Depending on the lamp's purpose, we recommend choosing a lamp with diffused or directed light.
Use floor lamps to create a cosy, warm, and intimate atmosphere, room zoning, or as decoration. With floor lamps, you can easily set accents and emphasise the interior's individuality.
Torches are most often chosen for additional lighting in the living room and bedroom. A vast selection of design solutions allows you to find an aesthetic option that perfectly fits your interior.
Table Lamps
A table lamp is one of the simplest and most convenient ways to illuminate a dark corner, bedside area, workspace, or to create a romantic atmosphere in the living room. Table lamps are not only functional, but also serve as an interesting accent in interior design.
A variety of design solutions, colours, shapes, sizes, styles, and functions will allow you to choose a suitable model for any room and purpose. A lamp with directed light will be the best assistant during work or study, while a lamp with diffused light will create the perfect ambience for relaxation.
Decorative Lighting
Decorative lighting is very popular in interior design. With modern lighting solutions (LED strips, spotlights, or special lighting fixtures), you can illuminate dark areas, create interesting accents and visual effects, emphasise silhouettes and architectural details. It is often used for illuminating niches, ceilings, stairs, arches, furniture pieces, fireplaces, mirrors, paintings, aquariums, and other interior elements.
