There is a common misconception that men don’t have an interest in Interior lighting. But lighting is like a good piece of Jewellery, a perfect reflection of personality, and an incredible addition to your decor if done so right.
However, finding a unique piece of lighting that is reflective of your personality can be quite challenging. So in order to give you some inspiration, I have collected five of my favorite lamps that pair creativity , design, and personality in one.
You can find them all in LampCommerce. For a completely original lamp that will pair nicely with an extrovert, have a look at the first two designs. For a balance between fine design that is still creative, try Artemide.
Artemide is one of the best Italian brands specialising in high quality lighting and with a focus on innovation, research, and eco-design. With a strong focus on environmental impact and improving living conditions, Artemide lamps draw inspiration from nature, choosing patterns that are observable in our environment.
1. Chapo Table Lamp, by Flos
This is one of my favourite lamps because of the simple yet smart way in which the designer, Philippe Starck, manages to emulate a long gone era. Starck, who was trying to emulate the elegance of the cinema stars of yesteryear, takes inspiration from legends of the silver screen such as Fred Astaire and James Stewart who, in each film, would lay down their hat on the first surface they could find: and so why not use a lamp for this function?
The brilliance of the design is that the lamp can serve as both a traditional lamp and a hat stand. Perfect for the gentleman with a classic style, this lamp is sure to make any room ignite with charm.
Starck’s work focuses closely on heightened awareness of ecology and maintains a code of ethics that aims to respect the future of man and nature.
2. Cuboluce LED Table Lamp, by Cini & Nils
This is a truly special lamp. Although it comes in neutral colours, versions the fun multicoloured version of the Cuboluce lamp is perfect for fanatics of old school games.
The fun design seems to emulate old rubix cubes on purpose. Whether arranged to create a massive rubix cube, or chosen in a discrete colour, this simple timeless and compact table lamp will make a unique addition to any room.
Since it can be mounted anywhere, it will also make a great addition to outdoor decor!
3. Logico Ceiling Lamp, by Artemide
This ceiling lamp, which has a blown glass diffuser and a polished-silk finish, is a perfect compromise between creative design and style.
Clearly taking inspiration from nature, Artemide has created a simple, yet stunning design, that will make a great addition to a living room.
The design is by Michele de Lucchi, who is considered to be one of the most important Italian architects of our time.
4. Edge 30 Hanging Lamp, by Artemide
This simple piece, designed by Alessandro Medini, is the perfect homage to the geometric trend that took the design world by storm this past year.
It is a simple, and classic design that will easily give an extra flare to a room without overcrowding it. Perfect for modern houses, it will go nicely above a large dining table.
5. Price Pendant Lamp, by Artemide
The Artemide Price collection, by Giuseppe Maurizio Scutella, is characterised by the designer’s desire to capture harmony and sinuosity.
In this collection, Scutella tries to compare lighting appliances to a luminous sound that must be both dynamic and delicate, by playing with light and shade through the shape of the lamp.
The unique shape reflects light indirectly, creating amazing effects and a soft atmosphere within a room which is likely to strike interest in any illusion fans.
Whether blunt or discreet, a cleverly placed lamp can be the key to changing a room entirely, think about what you want to achieve with your decor, then make sure to pick a piece that pairs nicely with that objective but that reflects your personality well.
