Designer bedside lamp

The designer bedside lamp often evokes several modern aspects. Whether you want lighting suitable for reading while adding a stylish decorative touch, or general touch lighting close to you, the term design is very broad when it comes to lighting fixtures. 

That is why in this article, we will focus on the different crucial points and thus help you choose your designer bedside lamp.

The term "design" refers to an aesthetic applied to the search for new shapes adapted to the function of objects. 

Regarding bedside lamps, design means the choice of materials, contemporary aesthetics as well as functionality.

The choice of materials: designer lighting fixtures for a bedroom table serve above all to create a warm atmosphere while enhancing the decorative atmosphere of the room. 

Among the different materials found on a decorative lamp, they could be classified into two categories. Vintage materials, and materials of contemporary inspiration.

- Porcelain: very classic from the 40s and 50s, porcelain is often adorned with patterns and serves to decorate the body of the lamp. Ceramic lamps and lighting fixtures create a cozy atmosphere in every room, and especially in the bedroom. Nowadays, seeing this type of floor lamp instantly evokes the vintage imagination, the French joie de vivre of yesteryear.

- Aged metal: sublime with a characteristic patina or rust, it creates a rather rustic atmosphere within a room. A lamp base to place made of aged metal such as bronze or brass creates an industrial style full of history. We often find this type of atmosphere in the living room but in a bedroom, it can look very good if the surrounding decoration is also suitable. For example, a black metal TV stand as well as a bronze chair, an aluminum headboard... all these decorative elements go very well with a vintage style designer bedside lamp.

The wood: Small wooden bedside lamps are very designer. It doesn't matter if the wood is aged, new and with curved lines... it is a material that always looks good on a nightstand. The design of the wood depending on whether it is recent or old will vary the period style and therefore the atmosphere in the room. The driftwood lamp will express an old character, while natural and varnished wood will make you think of modern Scandinavian decoration.

Glass: The glass lampshade is classic on a designer bedside lamp. Flexible in its arrangement, it can be placed anywhere! Although we often find this material as a typical chandelier of the baroque era, table lamps made of glass have also managed to make their place in a child's as well as an adult's bedroom. They also emit a variable brightness depending on the type of glass chosen! It can be smoked or transparent, with or without an internal dimmer in the LED bulb.

As for more modern materials, we can mention plastic (especially polycarbonate which is used to create beautiful designer lamps on a bedside table) but also bamboo, to create the Japanese style. Rattan is used to enhance a Nordic decoration and also create beautiful openwork lampshades... all these options are available in our range.

Unlike previous decades, the comfort brought by innovation has allowed the appearance of a whole lot of features allowing to adjust the light intensity remotely, increase or lower the color temperature... but also vary the color of the lamp for example. 

Smart and connected bulbs are one of the most practical designer lighting fixtures and above all, among the most popular in our time. But it is not only functionality that counts! 

Among the popular bedside lamps (industrial bedside lamp or contemporary), the wall lamp next to the bed has made its appearance. The wall sconce in particular, with its directional general lighting as well as its very practical switch because it is wireless is one of the most popular models. Both in hotels and private establishments. 

The table lamp remains, meanwhile, timeless. But we give it beautiful arched and flexible shapes nowadays, in which beautiful light spots are integrated.
