The current trend is for clear lines, pure geometric shapes and a neutral colour palette. Contemporary lighting blends harmoniously into the d\u00e9cor, adding a touch of modernity and sophistication. We also love the vintage style of floor lamps created by the greatest designers of the 1960s and 1970s. If we loved them yesterday, then we idolise them today. These lights have not aged a bit and are the new &#8220;classics&#8221; of interior design. One visionary, Philippe Starck not least, even asserts that, in the future, we will no longer be designing chandeliers, sconces or ceiling lights, but designing clarity, in other words, lighting that tends so much towards abstraction that it becomes an architectural luminous feature that takes precedence over the actual object. What he has doubtlessly forgotten is that, without a support, light is naked. So why not simply pick out lamps that are also beautiful objects in their own right?<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1301\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-17352\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/INGO-MAURER_Floatation-Suspension-en-metal-et-papier-washi.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/INGO-MAURER_Floatation-Suspension-en-metal-et-papier-washi.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/INGO-MAURER_Floatation-Suspension-en-metal-et-papier-washi-768x520.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/INGO-MAURER_Floatation-Suspension-en-metal-et-papier-washi-1536x1041.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Bright_suspensions\"><\/span>Bright suspensions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Suspended luminaires light up our interiors.

That is what many interior designers will tell you, vying with each other in terms of ideas and ingenuity to fit out our homes with the right lighting, i.e. exactly the right light for the right purpose. Does this mean that light is the whole point of architecture? Its essential component? Of course, there&#8217;s the sense of wonder triggered by beautiful lighting and the emotion that sculptural lighting arouses when approached in an artistic as well as technical manner. Nonetheless, the role of good lighting is first and foremost to blend in with a setting. The mistake to avoid is choosing a lighting fixture that is too present and &#8220;cannibalizes&#8221; the space. In architecture, as in decoration, it is the accessory that must be chosen with the greatest care. A lamp chosen for its artistic value may be an eye-catcher, but it also means that the rest of the room needs to be more discreet to preserve the balance.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1552\" height=\"2560\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-17364\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/STEPHANE-DAVIDTS_Tokyo-detail-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/STEPHANE-DAVIDTS_Tokyo-detail-scaled.jpg 1552w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/STEPHANE-DAVIDTS_Tokyo-detail-768x1267.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/STEPHANE-DAVIDTS_Tokyo-detail-931x1536.jpg 931w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/STEPHANE-DAVIDTS_Tokyo-detail-1241x2048.jpg 1241w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1552px) 100vw, 1552px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1708\" height=\"2560\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-17361\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/OCCHIO_Sento-Sospeso-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/OCCHIO_Sento-Sospeso-scaled.jpg 1708w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/OCCHIO_Sento-Sospeso-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/OCCHIO_Sento-Sospeso-1025x1536.jpg 1025w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/OCCHIO_Sento-Sospeso-1366x2048.jpg 1366w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1708px) 100vw, 1708px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Free-standing_lamps\"><\/span>Free-standing lamps<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>With table lamps (often overlooked in favour of more imposing lighting solutions), you can have light wherever you want it.

Available in a variety of materials &#8211; glass, opaline, anodized metal or high-performance opal acrylic &#8211; these floor lamps are not only in demand as functional light sources but make a style statement. A word of advice? Opt for a solid colour and a sleek look. And don&#8217;t forget that a reading lamp on a bedside table requires more focused light, while a lamp artfully placed on a piece of furniture can play a more decorative role.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"976\" height=\"1476\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-17376\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/BAHNE_Mushroom-lampes-a-poser.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/BAHNE_Mushroom-lampes-a-poser.jpg 976w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/BAHNE_Mushroom-lampes-a-poser-768x1161.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 976px) 100vw, 976px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1837\" height=\"2500\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-17379\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/KARTELL_Teresa-Lamp-design-by-Ferrucio-Laviani.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/KARTELL_Teresa-Lamp-design-by-Ferrucio-Laviani.jpg 1837w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/KARTELL_Teresa-Lamp-design-by-Ferrucio-Laviani-768x1045.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/KARTELL_Teresa-Lamp-design-by-Ferrucio-Laviani-1129x1536.jpg 1129w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/KARTELL_Teresa-Lamp-design-by-Ferrucio-Laviani-1505x2048.jpg 1505w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1837px) 100vw, 1837px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1707\" height=\"2560\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-17382\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/VERPAN_Pantop-Metal-lampes-a-poser-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/VERPAN_Pantop-Metal-lampes-a-poser-scaled.jpg 1707w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/VERPAN_Pantop-Metal-lampes-a-poser-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/VERPAN_Pantop-Metal-lampes-a-poser-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/VERPAN_Pantop-Metal-lampes-a-poser-1365x2048.jpg 1365w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1707px) 100vw, 1707px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Lighting a room is just as important as decorating it.

Some particularly imposing lighting systems are custom-built or produced in (very) limited editions. A case in point is the spectacular vertical luminaire (20 metres long) created three years ago by Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec for La Bourse de Commerce in Paris (Fondation Pinault), based on the Flos &#8220;Vertical Light&#8221;, a modular lighting fixture for wall installation.

Made of white methacrylate with a telescopic base in steel, stainless steel and black lacquer, it is now also available in gilded chrome and in a mini version.
