Lighting is no longer just a basic necessity in the home; it’s a way to express personality and style. Every year, new lighting trends emerge showcasing new materials, shapes, and designs, giving homeowners many options to choose from. In 2023, here are the lighting trends you can expect to take center stage.
Over-scaled chandeliers
Chandeliers have been reimagined with a modern twist: over-scaled and multi-tiered. Large chandeliers are being used to make a statement in a variety of spaces by adding visual interest. Oversized lighting in general is becoming more popular.
Plaster lighting
Plaster lighting can find a home in traditional and modern spaces, formal living rooms and outdoor porches — making it a very versatile option. The chalky white color appears clean and fresh, automatically lightening the look and feel of a room.
Layered lighting
Rather than designating one lighting option per room, homeowners should consider the possibilities of layered lighting. This trend offers more daily function and can be used to create multiple different moods within a space. Bathrooms in particular will benefit from layered lighting, such as back-lit mirrors, wall lights, exposed bulbs, and brass pendants.
Pendant lighting
Pendant lighting has been growing steadily in popularity over the past few years and will expand to new places this year, such as the dining table, kitchen island, and bathtub. Glass pendants are especially popular due to their translucence, airiness, and style versatility.
Mixed lighting
Mix and match lamps with pendants, floor lamps, recessed lights, and sconces to add dimension to a space. Varying styles and heights of lighting can be used in one room to create a trendy look.
Rattan and rope lighting
As eco-consciousness grows among consumers, more and more people are choosing lighting with natural materials, like rattan, ceramics, and blown glass. These materials create a more casual and down-to-earth aesthetic that will remain popular for years to come.
LED lighting
The countertrend to exposed lighting, indirect lighting that uses LED bulbs provides greater flexibility when designing the look and feel of a room.
