Light up your home with a Decorative Floor lamp

If you decide to go for a beautiful floor lamp, it largely depends on the space you have available. For instance, a tripod floor lamp will definitely work really well in a big empty corner but may take up too much invaluable floor space in a comparatively smaller room.

Whether the lamp is befitting the size of the room

When you are making a decision on a floor lamp, you must consider the scale of your living room specifically the height of the ceiling.

Kind of light in your room

Matching with the decor and design of the room

Floor lamp bases usually come in different varieties like brass, wood, marble, and a variety of colors, while shades can be anything from downplayed linens to brightly colored silk patterns, so there is ample scope for matching your lamp to your living room’s style and decor.

Nonetheless, you can easily use floor lamps to add some character and new elements to your living room. Why not you consider combining a floor lamp with an armchair and side table and create a cushy reading place?

Layering light with multiple lamps

One of the basic principles of Interior design is that in a living room, layering light with multiple lamps is far much better than depending on a single overhead source. Having many lamps of different sizes implies that you can easily use a varied combination according to the mood and situation.

So if you plan to purchase a floor lamp along with table lamps, desk lights, and wall lights, you will definitely have a lot of fun while creating a lighting ‘family’. Artistically mismatched shades and styles can certainly bring a lot of personality to a room.
