Upgrade Your Lamp Decor
Lamps are sometimes forgotten. They are typically the last finishing touches to a room or not thoughtfully planned out. Proper lighting is essential to every room. They set the mood in the space and have a decorative role in your home, helping elevate the design and style. Do you want to upgrade your lamp decor? Here are a few tips to get you started.
Function
What is the lamp’s purpose? A classic reading lamp does not belong in an open seating space because the light will only focus on one small area of the room. Plan out what areas need to be lit and how bright and open you need it to be. If the lamp is strictly for decorative purposes, don’t forget that it should compliment the rest of the decor surrounding it.
Lamp Shades
If you have an incredible lamp base, that just needs a lamp shade upgrade, remember to choose a shade that mimics the shape of the lamp. For example, a tall, thin floor lamp base would look best with a conical shade and a square table lamp base would pair with a square or rectangular shade. The lamp shade also adds another level of color and texture.
