Here are some tips for maximizing your lighting with lamps.
Define what kind of lighting you need. Buying a lamp you like and then trying to make it fit it into your bedroom or living room is almost never a good idea. Try chalking out the perfect place each lamp should sit or stand in relation to your couch or bedside and then note the height it needs to be to spread out a warm circle of light that just right for entertaining guests or finishing a few pages of your current novel before you go to sleep.
Some rules of thumb for choosing table lamps: the bottom of the shade should at your eye level when you are seated. The diameter of the lampshade should be at least two inches less than the length of its body. The narrower the base of the shade, the smaller the area it will illuminate.
Be flexible when it comes to style. Be open to the idea that the right lamp might have a shape, color or metallic finish you hadn’t considered at first. Try mixing two different lamps with similar colors or geometric shapes. Or make one amazing pendant light the focal point of your room.
Layer multiple sources of light. Combine the intimacy of bedside table lamps with a brighter floor lamp in one corner of the room. Include floor lamps, table lamps and accent lamps in different spots in your living room. Add a couple of accent lamps on the buffet or sideboard in your dining room. Don’t forget the home office and entryway! Every space in your home needs a different lighting solution and we’re ready to help. Visit one of our many showrooms that sell lamps and more.
