If you like clean lines, neutral tones, and designs inspired by nature, you can’t do much better than looking to Scandinavia. And in lighting, Nordlux leads the way. Sleek and minimal, with the occasional industrial twist, Nordlux are the masters of Scandi lighting, embracing natural materials and muted shades for maximum minimalist effect. And they do this nowhere better than in the bathroom. So, why does the Scandi look work so well for bathroom lighting?
Reimagine Your Bathroom Lighting with Nordlux
Form meets function
The defining feature of Scandinavian design is that it’s always prioritised functionality, but it does so without compromising on beauty. And in the bathroom, where there’s often no room for fripperies, that’s especially important. With lights like the Nordlux Aludra collection – which also make great outdoor lights – you gain stripped-back lights that are still visually appealing while delivering the perfect balance of light. Aludra are particular favourites, the design being reminiscent of sunlight filtering through trees, delivering a serene and uncluttered aesthetic. But you can go even simpler, with lights like the Aleria or Canto for clean, clear elegance.
Natural light, even when there isn’t any
Bathroom lighting can be particularly important because they’re often windowless or low-light spaces. Scandi lighting can help with this by mimicking natural light. Designs featuring frosted glass, matte finishes, and indirect light sources, like the Nordlux Hester, help to gently diffuse the light through the room. This can reduce the likelihood of sharp shadows and bright spots. And creates a more natural, flattering illumination.
Stylish, yet subtle
Minimalism can sometimes be boring. With Nordlux, that’s never the case. Whether it’s unusual shapes, the choice of materials, or subtle details, Nordlux can bring interest even when keeping things simple. Take the Nordlux Canto Maxi Kubi wall light, for example. It looks like a small metal box. But with both up and down lighting, it brings a room to life, adding interest, light, and shadow. And then there’s the grain of the metal, faintly drawing the eye. It adds detail, warmth, and character to a space that can sometimes feel bland.
Perfect for small spaces
Bathrooms are often the smallest rooms in the home, and Scandi lighting is designed with this in mind. Whether you have a low ceiling or a small footprint, the slim profiles of lights, like the Nordlux Foam collection, make them compatible with any space.
Timelessness
Because of its simplicity, most Scandi-inspired lighting doesn’t really get old. Whether you go for simple recessed downlights, like the Femont, or strips, like the Malaika, you have a look that will last. So, you can forget about trend-chasing and endlessly tedious upgrades, and enjoy a style that will last as long as you need it to.
Nordlux lighting works so well in the bathroom because it brings calm, clarity, and character to a space that is often neglected. It’s not bold or chintzy, or screaming for attention. But rather, clean, simple, and effortlessly stylish, helping you to make the most of the space, thoughtfully, considerately and beautifully. And that is why we love Nordlux.
