Lighting Trends: Minimalist, Transitional & Metal

As we have emphasized before, lighting is the easiest and most cost-effective way to update interiors. Whether it’s a new side table lamp or a show stopping chandelier, a new fixture can freshen an entire room for a more dynamic and fashionable look. From a recent article on Build.com, here are three lighting trends that can offer inspiration for a lighting update.

• Minimalist Style: Less can sometimes be more as clean lines can go a long way. Simplified lighting fixtures with gentle curves, subtle handcrafted accents and etched glass shades can be the perfect addition to sophisticated, minimalist interiors.
• Transitional Design: These types of fixtures combine classic styles with modern touches for a lighting solution that uniquely harmonizes new and old.
• Metal Finishes: Polished nickel and antique bronze are among the most popular, but metal finishes in general are reigning as a top choice for fixtures as they can add elegance to traditional interiors or sleek style to modern interiors.
