5 Ideas for How to Style Lamps in Your Home’s Interior Design

Great design consists of layered illumination. As you begin your next seasonal home refresh, aim to incorporate a mix of lighting sources. Lamps not only serve as statement pieces, but they also provide dimension and can set the mood of a room entirely! Read on for a look at a few lamps we’ve styled in recent interior design projects.

 

Desk Lamps Can Be Stylish and Functional

The first lamp we always recommend sourcing is a desk lamp. In the corner of our Fairway project’s primary bedroom, we added a small desk area for our client to get work done from home. We styled a beautifully arched desk lamp to not only tie in the other brass elements found throughout the room but also provide a light source to ensure productivity.

 

Brighten Your Bedside with a Stylish Nightstand Lamp

Sometimes lamps can be artwork themselves! In our Scottsdale interior design project, The Estates, we styled a modern, ceramic lamp on top of the two nightstands flanking the upholstered bed. Balancing both beautiful and practical, nightstand lamps are a great source of light on dimmer days. In bedroom areas, aim to find a lamp with shades that can help contain the light to avoid disturbing any nearby nappers.

 

Make a Statement with a Floor Lamp

Floor lamps can serve as beautiful statement pieces in any interior. We love that this brass floor lamp from our Marshall Ave interior design project is adjustable and can be molded to fit into nearly any space. This versatility will allow the piece to live in our client’s home for years to come. One of the top tips we share with clients is to not be afraid of investing in quality pieces like this that they love!

 

Beautiful Entryway Lamp

Have you ever laid eyes on a more beautifully intricate lamp? We can’t get over how the color of this lamp from our Cave Creek interior design project, Calle De Pompas, complements the adjacent artwork and accent wall. It’s the perfect touch to make guests feel right at home as soon as they enter.

 

Don’t Forget about Hallway Lamps

Last but not least, lamps always sit pretty on cabinets or console tables. Inside this cutout in our 83rd Place project, we opted to maximize space by styling a ceramic table lamp, artwork, and various accessories. We kept all of these details neutral to avoid overwhelming the space, and we love the subtle yet striking effect it had on the overall setup!

Rattan: A New Design Trend to Weave Into Your Interiors

Rattan: A New Design Trend to Weave Into Your Interiors

Today we’re sharing a design trend that you’re going to want to weave into your interiors ASAP. Dating back in popularity for centuries, rattan is a natural material commonly woven into wicker. Formerly used to accessorize a home’s outdoor areas, rattan is now making it’s way inside and we can’t help but swoon over the organic and serene feel it adds to a room. Read on for four ways to incorporate this trending texture into your home!

 

Rattan Furniture

One way we’ve been incorporating rattan into recent client projects is through furniture. In our Montevista Project, we incorporated a large rattan cabinet to serve as the focal point for this room. Our clients couldn’t get enough of the soft, textural twist this modern piece added to the space!

Rattan Accessories

If you’re not convinced you love rattan enough to commit to investing in large furniture pieces, try incorporating pops of this material into your home through accessories! Whether styled on a shelf or hung on a wall, small details, like this storage box, are perfect for bringing a touch of warmth and texture into any space.

Rattan Seating

In the heart of our Ironwood Project’s kitchen, we incorporated counter stools with rattan on the back rest. Subtle yet striking, this detail brought a refreshed and modern take on retro into the space. We love how it tied together the neutral tones incorporated throughout the surrounding kitchen!

Rattan Lighting

Though commonly woven into wicker, rattan is a versatile material that does not always have to be. Consider incorporating the material into your home as lighting! We styled this strong and durable vine in our Fairway Project’s family room as an intricate and modern light fixture. Chandeliers are like the jewelry of your home, and we love how this unique fixture instantly draws guests in.

Fluted Materials a Long-Loved Technique + 2022 Design Trend

If you’re looking to add visual interest and a pop of texture to your interior, look no further than fluted materials. An ancient technique used in architecture, this design trend is comprised of shallow grooves along a single surface. The resulting clean lines are a delicate way to bring balance and height into any space.

We’ve loved incorporating fluted materials into past interior design projects and we expect this design trend to only continue increasing in popularity this year. Read on for three ways to incorporate fluting into your home!

Fluted Furniture

A simple way to incorporate fluting into your home is through furniture. In our recent Fairway Project, we aimed to add fun elements in each room for the ultimate “wow” factor. The fluted details on this dining table was a beautiful complement to the adjacent floating shelves and linear pattern on the Roman shades. Talk about clean lines for days in this space!

Similarly, in our 83rd Place Project, we incorporated a fluted desk that added just the right amount of detail to the space. Balancing simple and sophisticated, this piece really helped us take the look of this room to the next level. Work from home life wouldn’t be so bad in a space as stunning as this one!

Fluted Cabinets

Another one of our favorite ways to incorporate fluting into projects is through cabinets and drawers! Beauty meets functional in our Trailside View Project, where we incorporated a wooden vanity with fluted cabinets. We love the modern elegance it added to the interior, while still providing the necessary storage for our clients.

Fluted Kitchen Hood

We may or may not have saved the best example for last. In our Fairway Project, we added a fluted hood that again paired beautifully between the adjacent floating shelves. We anticipate that the hood’s unique and unexpected finish will instantly turn the heads of anyone who enters the heart of this home.

Starting in the primary bedroom, we applied a modern, gray brushstroke wallpaper to serve as a focal point for the space. We love the visual interest it added to the bedroom!

Adjacent to the accent wall, we added two light oak wood nightstands and a gorgeous custom bed made with black linen fabric for contrast. To keep the space feeling balanced, we chose to keep the bedding simple and add a statement rug and throw pillows for a pop of color and pattern.

Moving over to the opposite side of the primary bedroom, we wanted to create a beautifully designed space, where our client would feel inspired to get work done. Would you believe us if we told you this wooden desk has fully functioning drawers? To say we’re obsessed with this piece is an understatement! To further fill in the space, we added a mirror, boucle desk chair, some greenery, and floor-to-ceiling draperies for a high-end feel.

A Cohesive Primary Bathroom

To keep the primary bathroom cohesive with the bedroom’s black and white color palette, we installed locally-made black metal doors and handmade, terracotta tile to the floors and shower. We love the contrast and uniqueness it added to the space! The vanity was made complete with custom rift cut oak cabinetry and quartz countertops, complemented by beautiful black and brass detailing throughout.

One of our favorite things about the primary bathroom is this custom colored teal tub! We really wanted this to be a standout detail for our client, so we accentuated the pop of color by repeating it through the custom Roman shades. Similarly, we installed a chandelier with both silver and brass elements to tie in the metals from the faucets in the space as well.

A New Laundry Room

To refresh the laundry room, we incorporated new floors, countertops, and applied a gorgeous hand-printed wallpaper to add movement and depth to the room.

The Family Room

Our goal in the family room was to create a space that balanced beautiful, comfortable, and practical. We started by incorporating a custom-black sofa made with kid-friendly fabric and integrated the couch’s bold color into the custom drapery found throughout the room. Serving as the focal point for the space, we added a geometric wood coffee table. We’ll never tire of incorporating unique elements like this into our client’s homes!

To finish off the family room, we mounted a Samsung picture frame TV to the wall that can display art on the screen when it is not being used for movie marathons. Making family-time extra cozy, we installed a fireplace with quartz detailing on the ledge, a modern chandelier, and plush accent chairs for additional seating. The more the merrier, right?

Just for the Kids

To give the client’s children a space to hang out away from the family room, we created a wallpaper ceiling chandler arizonaseparate kids’ space featuring a roomy leather sofa, TV, coffee table, and shelving to store toys and games. Lastly, we brought the interest up in this room by wallpapering the ceiling and installing a fun, modern chandelier.

We also brought the same cement tile bathroom chandler azcustom rift cut oak cabinetry and quartz countertops from the primary bathroom into the children’s bathroom, this time with brass hardware to complement the faucets, lighting, and mirrors.
