Original lamps in the interior: photo composition by Dana Wolter

Cheryl Burke Interior Design Project

It is hard to imagine an interior without lamps. But the world of lighting is not only diverse, but also amazing. With the help of lamps, you can complete the conceived image of the room, endow it with a certain character, for example, playfulness, dreaminess, romance, add charm, sophistication to it and emphasize the impeccable design style. Original lamps will give the desired effect!

There is a separate direction in design related to light, and every year thousands of delightful and unique chandeliers appear..

In this topic, readers can look at some great ideas for decorating rooms for various purposes, which were created, among other things, thanks to the original tripod lamps. They, despite the prevailing tendency to save space with the help of hanging and wall models, turned out to be in great demand..

At the same time, both lampshades and racks are separately worthy of attention. Each of these details often looks self-sufficient and is a sculptural addition to an elaborate interior..

In many modern living room and bedroom design projects, you can often see stylish and delightful floor lamps that allow you to softly illuminate rooms and focus the flow of light in a specific area..

The variety of existing configurations, materials and shades allows you to inspire new ideas in design.

How many more exciting options can you think of if you replace just one piece of the lamp, an elegant stand, with a rude and seemingly completely unsuitable tripod for residential buildings?.

However, as you can see, this element can be the very connecting link with which you can unite every object in the room into a single whole. For example, it can be used as a contrasting accent highlighting the elegance and lightness of the interior. Or become an indispensable touch in a fashionably designed space.

But it’s not just the configuration of the tripod that plays an important role in creating a particular image. Equally important are the shape, material and the chosen shade of the lampshade. Of course, in most cases, its silhouette resembles a cylinder or a truncated cone, so designers are paying more and more attention to the appearance of its surface..

See how stunning and ultra-modern a plafond decorated with a metal look looks, especially in a group of equally delightful lamps. A felt cap can also look luxurious, especially if it is one of the main elements of home decor, or the only bright accent in a monochrome interior..

Quite interesting is the idea of adding such details to the exquisite design that, at first glance, do not correspond to it. But even a rough-looking tripod and a tabletop, as if hastily hammered out of boards, can look organic and effective..

I would also like to draw attention to the careful selection of each item by the designers, as was done by the Cravotta Interiors studio. Harmony reigns in the living room they created: all forms, textures, textures and shades complement each other.

In particular, the drapery of the lamp shade displayed both the neat folds of the curtains and the beautiful wood pattern. A sleek metal tripod fully matches the furniture fittings.

Proportions and symmetry in the interior

It’s no secret that the interior looks harmonious only when proportions are observed in it. Even the most beautiful and stylish designer furniture will look ridiculous if its size is incommensurate with the dimensions of the room.

So, compact objects in a spacious room with high ceilings look like toys. And big things do not easily occupy all the available space, but also make it uncomfortable, unsuitable for living..

Of course, with the help of disproportion, you can focus on some particularly fashionable accessory, but only in exceptional cases. It should be noted that this rule applies not only to furniture, but also to other interior items..

Therefore, when choosing such a bright and effective lamp model as a lamp on a tripod, you should always remember this..

I would also like to add that symmetry is of no small importance for creating a harmonious and stylish space. Surely many have noticed that the looking glass has a kind of magical effect of paired objects: two armchairs, a pair of pedestals, lamps, etc. The walls of the rooms seem to move apart and create a visual illusion of space and freedom.

One of the fashionable trends in modern interior design for dining rooms and living rooms is the use of large lamps. However, you need to be careful when using models on tripods. Even one massive rack can upset the balance, making the rest of the room’s appeal less visible..

You also need to remember that the lighting devices used for decoration should interact, complement, but not overlap each other’s radiation fluxes. Otherwise, the cut-off effect will distort the space and make it uncomfortable..

Spotlight – effective lighting option

Models such as spotlights, spotlights, which are usually used by photographers when exposing light, bring a special chic to the home interior. Their bright, clearly directed beam literally cuts the space and draws attention not so much to their configuration as to the environment..

At the same time, their specific design looks original, spectacular and very harmonious in any room, be it a delightful country house or a fashionable living room in an industrial style.

Spotlights and spotlights are especially great for penthouses, loft-style rooms and other room options that mimic the sensational Soho style. They seem to be specially created for such interiors..

It is clear that decorating a house using bright lamps on tripods is a rather bold and somewhere glamorous decision that not many are ready to accept..

However, designers are constantly improving their shapes, decorating racks with matte or glossy metal details, vintage patterns, creating stunning and unusual shades that will surely find their place in many projects..

And, of course, these hot, challenging yet stylish models are already setting the stage for a grand comeback by 2014.

Light on a tripod: contrasting accent or harmonious addition?

If you are determined to decorate your house using similar lamp models and have already decided on their size, do not forget to pay attention to the shape and shade of the lampshade, the configuration and material of the stand, as well as the general style of the lamp..

In this case, you can use one of two approaches: either use the light source as an organic element that makes up a kind of compositional group with other objects in the room, or, conversely, use it to place clear, possibly contrasting accents.

For example, you are planning to decorate the living room with a bright panel, a large interesting painting, prints on the wall, etc., but at the same time you do not want to turn it into a rainbow space. Therefore, the interior needs to be balanced with items in neutral colors. In this case, the lamp on the tripod should not attract attention either in shape or color..

If, in your opinion, the room lacks something catchy, optimistic, add graceful and attractive things to it. And, of course, the presented option often provides for the choice of such a lamp model that will complement one or more furnishings.

But no less effective can be called the technique when the lamp makes a certain composition not with individual interior objects, but with a common background. An example is a model of a laconic form, the shade of which matches the tone of the walls. You will probably notice how elegant it looks..

Luminaires on tripods can also be used perfectly for decorating children’s rooms. Designers often come up with interesting home decor designs that help children and teenagers develop a sense of aesthetics and style..

In the work shown in the photo below, you can see a delightful room with a variety of textures, bold color schemes, fashionable lamps (one of them is floor-standing, the second is a tabletop, but outwardly similar to each other).

At first glance, it is impossible to determine which family member owns a beautiful room. And only drawings on the walls and small armchairs reveal this secret..

As noted above, using the configurations and color nuances of floor lamps, you can place accents, balance the space, and emphasize the elegance of the interior. So, a tripod made of wood is not only appropriate in country houses, but also allows you to indicate the environmental friendliness of the project as a whole..

And a black lampshade is not just an extravagant and daring decision. It is a spectacular and integral part of a fashionable and incredibly stylish concept..

If the project of a modern house is based on elegance and lightness, you should choose the appropriate models of lighting devices with almost invisible metal racks, laconic shapes and neutral shades of shades.

Fantastic shapes of the modern world

The design idea is constantly being updated. Talented authors annually offer incredible floor lamp designs, which sometimes dictate modern trends in interior design. Some of them are successfully used for decoration of fashionable theme parties or as scenery for science fiction films..

The most sensational configurations are the subject of discussion by many publications and critics. But even the most inconceivable options, causing delight, bewilderment, admiration, and rejection, are proof of the inexhaustible talent of contemporary artists. And, of course, each of them does not simply have the right to exist, but it is also able to help express your extraordinary personality and worldview..
