And just like that, summer is pretty much over. There may be a smattering of warmer weather ahead, but the days are definitely getting shorter, and it won’t be long before there’s a chill in the air. But while summer can be lovely, it’s those cosy days that we live for. And cosiness definitely needs to start at home, with soft textures and inviting ambient lighting. Floor lamps are one of the easiest ways to start your autumnal home transformation.

With the end of the school holidays comes the inevitable shopping list. And whether you’re packing your eldest off to uni or prepping your youngest for their first day at secondary school, there’s one piece of equipment they can’t do without: a desk lamp. Reducing the eye strain of reading and essay writing, and improving the ambience of the studying environment, desk lamps are a must have for every student. So, what should you be looking for?

Whether you’re studying, trawling through paperwork, doing the crossword, or diving into a novel, good lighting is integral. It can make or break your reading experience. The right reading lamp not only protects your eyes from strain but also enhances the ambiance of your space. But with so many styles and features available – desk lamps, floor lamps, wall lights, and clip-on options – it’s not always easy to know what kind of reading lamp you should be looking for. So, what do you need to consider when choosing a reading lamp?

Wall lights have always meant hardwiring. Which, for many of us, means they’re totally inaccessible. As lovely as they can be, shedding a soft, ambient glow, installation isn’t always an option. It’s not just the cost of an electrician, it’s the disruption. And if you live in a rental property, there’s no point even going there. Well, there wasn’t… until Nordlux launched their plug in wall light collection.

Too often, home lighting starts and ends with a ceiling fixture. It’s what the majority of newbuilds come with as standard. But while it might be practical, it does little for ambience or aesthetic. So, if you’re looking to add a little extra to your interiors vibe, layered lighting is usually the answer. It doesn’t just illuminate, it adds mood, depth, and function to your space. And one of the most versatile pieces in the layering toolbox is the cluster pendant light. So, how can cluster pendants help you achieve a layered lighting look in any room?

The funny thing about conservatories is that no one ever thinks about what they’re going to do with them at night. When the sun streams in during the day, they’re bright, warm, and welcoming. But unless you get your lighting right, at night, your conservatory can become a wasted space. So, what do you need to consider when choosing conservatory lighting?

The kitchen is arguably the heart of most homes. It’s where you gather and chat, sharing food and making memories. But for that to happen, your kitchen has to be somewhere you want to be. And your choice of lighting can play a big part in that, which is something that Altos Lighting knows all about. Whether you want to brighten your breakfast bar or upgrade the underside of your cabinets, Altos kitchen lighting can bring warmth, elegance, and functionality into your home.

Touches of nature can bring a lot to a home. The colours, textures, and organic forms can offer a sense of calm, grace, and beauty. But while you’re reaching for your floral wallpaper and naturally toned throws, don’t forget the potential of floral lighting. Whether sculptural leaf-inspired chandeliers or flower print shades, floral lights can bring warm, inviting ambiance to any interior.

If you’re looking for a new table lamp the aesthetic matters. Whether you’re redecorating a room or replacing an old favourite, lamps do so much more than provide functional lighting. They're versatile design pieces that can directly influence the look and feel of any space. That’s one of the reasons why we’re such fans of glass table lamps. Bringing elegance, lightness, and character to your space, glass table lamps make a timeless home décor choice.
