Lighting
CURVES ARE BACK in vogue. Swooping shaped lighting fixtures are bringing a soft edge to retail and restaurant interiors this year, creating balance in relation to angular and digital features. Globe and bubble clusters are popping onto the scene too, inspiring cascading pendants and round-topped floor lamps. When it comes to colors, organic shades and pastels abound. Milky glass is becoming a mainstay, allowing light to glow through the glass. Pairing this with a contrasting material, such as burnt steel or mirrored brass, is elevating retail environments.
Recessed LEDs are also having their moment, allowing product to shine – whether that’s on a store shelf or behind a bar. Subtle, tasteful, elegant lighting as art is the overarching trend heading in 2023 … setting the scene rather than stealing the limelight.
