When it comes to transforming a space from simple to stunning, feature lighting is your best-kept secret. This finishing touch elevates a room by adding warmth, personality, and a designer’s flair. As my go-to lighting supplier, Lighterior offers a range of global styles that bring elegance and functionality to any space. But, like any good design element, using feature lighting effectively requires a balanced approach to ensure a sophisticated, cohesive look.

Don’t Overdo It

Think of feature lighting as the statement accessory of a room. It draws attention, but too much can overwhelm the space. Rather than placing bold fixtures in every corner, consider how each light serves the room. For instance, a wall light by the bed can provide task lighting for reading while creating a warm, inviting glow as you enter.

In Tully’s bedroom, we chose the Mini Adjustable Wall Light in Aged Brass from Lighterior. This fixture combines function with form, adding ambient light without overpowering the room. Its timeless design completes the space, providing just the right amount of elegance.

Mix Up the Styles

Diversity in lighting styles is key to a designer look. Australia often sees pendants as a go-to, but wall lights and lamps can add depth and layers, making a room feel thoughtfully curated.

From table lamps to floor lamps, mixing up your fixtures gives each area a unique character while maintaining a cohesive feel.

In the living room of The Maybe Forever, we used the Girasoli Spot Lights in Aged Brass from Lighterior for both style and versatility. Their warm brass finish and adjustable design allow us to create various moods, adding drama or focus wherever needed. In the walk-in robe, the Nonna Bice Ceramic Pendant Light brings elegance and unique charm, softening the space with its artisanal look.

Experiment with Different Looks

A designer space benefits from a mix of lighting styles rather than a matchy-matchy approach. Using various fixture styles creates a curated, intentional look that feels dynamic. In the outdoor room, for example, we chose rattan pendant lights to bring a fun, natural vibe. Meanwhile, in the ground-floor living area, linen lantern pendants add softness, balanced by the Mini Spot Double Ceiling Light that adds a subtle, modern touch.

Let Lighterior Feature Lighting Be Your Finishing Touch

When thoughtfully integrated, feature lighting becomes your secret weapon in achieving that designer feel. It brings a welcoming warmth, a sense of style, and that essential “wow” factor to every room. With pieces like Lighterior’s Mini Adjustable Wall Light, Girasoli Spot Lights, and Nonna Bice Pendant, you can create a space that’s as inviting as it is polished.
