Matali Crasse, the guru of decor and design, is convinced - “design is not so much a profession as an attitude to life.” Adding to this the words of Giorgio Saporiti, who is called “the father of Italian minimalism”, that “in a good design, functionality is always primary, regardless of form, but it should not depress emotions”, you can get a universal formula for perfect lighting. Only the interior will be comfortable, the lamps in which combine functionality and display of the inner world of its owner.
Stylish and practical solutions for summer terraces and verandas
Open summer spaces can be conditionally divided into two types: with and without a roof. Depending on this, lighting sources are selected. Although in both cases the products should be protected from moisture as much as possible, in the first case the choice is wider and there are more opportunities for installing massive overhead lighting and built-in products.
Upper light
The style of light sources directly depends on the design of the house itself and the site.
Forged chandeliers will support the classic monumental direction, additional light sources can be built-in - so they will not distract attention.
The Art Nouveau exterior requires other forms, but the materials chosen are no less durable.
The main roof makes it possible to mark the lamps built into the fans, which is undoubtedly very convenient in the hot months.
Pendant lamps also include mobile systems that are easily placed on the roofs of pergolas and are just as easily removed if necessary.
It is possible to organize overhead lighting in spaces without a canopy. So, lamps placed on tree branches look spectacular.
A rooftop terrace will undoubtedly be decorated with garlands of light bulbs.
Middle and low light
Very popular options for lighting terraces and gazebos are floor lamps and floor lamps. They are easily installed on the site and cleaned in inclement weather, they can be transferred, creating the necessary lighting intensity in specific areas. The built-in low-light sources look no less impressive, but require serious installation work.
A high floor lamp on a flexible leg is quite capable of replacing the upper light.
High lamps on a wooden base ideally support the "natural" component of the site.
Glowing balls - not only a way to illuminate the space, but also the original decor.
Separately, it is worth highlighting table lamps that create a special atmosphere of privacy. For example, Armani's Blossom lamp, made of metal, wood and glass, will support the current trend of conciseness and at the same time provide soft light.
Loft Lights
Lofts can be called internal terraces - there is also a lot of space and air. However, if open areas allow zoned illumination, then for the inside it is necessary to provide the opportunity to illuminate all corners. All known types are used for this: chandeliers, recessed lamps, sconces, floor lamps, floor models. And often they harmoniously complement each other.
Choosing chandeliers, you can focus on urban models that fully support the industrial orientation of the style.
However, luxurious pendant lights for lofts with an abundance of glass pendants or faces will look no less impressive, especially since the height of the premises often allows this. It is such massive chandeliers that emphasize the volume of space and bring a touch of eclecticism. For example, the MONTGOLFIÈRE model from Labyrinthe Interiors, which is offered by the manufacturer in various sizes up to 152 cm in height, will not only illuminate the space and fill it with shimmering highlights, but will also become a central detail of the interior.
To create comfortable lighting for certain areas will help floor lamps, sconces and table lamps.
So, the Andrew Crystal Bryston Giant floor lamp with the ability to flexibly adjust the height of the light source (up to 212 cm) will provide almost the usual overhead light above the sitting area or work table.
A softer version is offered by Armani - the Aladino floor lamp is not flexible, but its shape will soften the sharpness of the loft.
It is important to remember that the style does not require harsh forms. His only rule is to be comfortable and bring joy. Therefore, if you want something unusual and bright, you can safely complement the interior with such things.
For example, a bright Ernest lamp by Andrew Martin will help to revive the essentially industrial loft and at the same time illuminate the space.
Le Corbusier - one of the pioneers of architectural functionalism and modernism - argued: “Space, light and orderliness. A man needs these three things as much as he needs food and overnight. ” The space is given by nature and the amazing style of the loft, the best designers will provide light, and orderliness - their competent combination.
