How to illuminate a modern interior?

Eco design

The eco style is among the most popular styles - not only in lighting, but also in interior design in 2021. The trend of returning to nature will be very visible with Boho and scandi-chic interiors, filled with natural earth colours and materials such as rattan, wicker and bamboo.This eco style will be dominated by natural materials with lamps made of marble, granite, basalt and terrazzo, and also concrete.

According to Westwing, one of the trends that will dominate 2021 will be modern country life, which seems to be an answer to the events of 2020. It combines the idyllic and familiar atmosphere of the countryside with modern solutions. Warmth and safety with memories of your grandmother's cosy house in the country and the longing for carefree childhood - this is the basis of the modern country life style.

Practical rail lighting

So far, rail lighting has been used mainly in public and commercial spaces. Today, it is becoming more and more popular in houses and flats, as a great alternative to traditional lamps. Due to the convenience of its use, it will certainly be a popular choice in 2021. The biggest advantage of such lighting is the possibility to freely move the lamps and regulate the angle of incidence of light. As a result, they can be pointed in any direction. The solution will work well in the kitchen, in a large living room or in the hallway.

Thanks to rail lighting we can adjust the light to our needs. By fixing the rails on the ceiling, allows you to arrange the light in many interesting ways.

Universal ceiling light fixtures

Ceiling light fixtures are universal lamps that never go out of fashion. This practical solution will work great in the kitchen, bathroom and hallway. The lamp tightly adheres to the ceiling, which makes it convenient for use. In addition, it diffuses the light illuminating every area of the room. Ceiling light fixtures are perfect for minimalist interiors.

Trends in lighting: modern pendant lamps

Minimalist industrial lamps combining metal, wood and a bulb, such as Kanlux ALIN or Kanlux JASMIN, will be popular in 2021. "Spider" chandeliers, such as Kanlux TOKIA are also still relevant in 2021. They suit loft and industrial interiors, the number of which is increasing in Poland. Details, colours and shapes change, but the concept of a modern loft has remained the same for several years. One of the advantages of "spiders" is the fact that even a change of light bulbs can give a new character to the lighting.

The "spider" lamp doesn't suit enclosed and small spaces. Needs to be Installed in the living room and larger open spaces.

Geometric shapes

Lamps with geometric, simple forms, evoking the 1970s and the Art Deco style will be popular in 2021. They are perfect for minimalist interiors as they accentuate there elegance.

Simplicity will reign supreme in 2021.

Gentle shapes of lamps:

After many years, timeless arches and ellipses are back in favour again. Streamlined, harmonious and striking forms will be the central point of many living rooms with the shape and material becoming the new epitome of elegance.

Pantone Colour Institute selected the colours of 2021: These are Ultimate Grey and Illuminating Yellow. The union of grey and yellow expresses the current pandemic situation in the world and the hope for a better tomorrow. Many decorators will choose lamps with bold colours or shades of gold, which go well with the colour grey. We should remember however that lamps in bold colours constitute a dominant element of an interior. This same principle also applies to upholstered furniture. Enthusiasts for soft colours and pastels will also find something for themselves in the new trends for 2021. Lamps in the colour of light pink and mint will bring the atmosphere of spring and lightness into interior design. Current trends should be taken into account when arranging interiors and selecting lighting; Nevertheless, we should remember that the current fashion doesn't have to define the style of your dwelling. You can freely combine decorative elements to create an original space, matching your needs and preferences.
