How To Decorate With Colored Crystal - A New Trend In Home Lighting
Starting from ancient times a human being always tried to make his shelter look nice and cozy. While people had fresh and brilliant ideas in interior decoration, they faced the reality of the lack of technology and materials to fulfill their dreams. In the 21st century everybody has a different problem – with a huge variety of goods and ideas on the market, how to make the right choice and not to make a mistake that will cost not only the money, but also so valuable time and efforts. With every passing year we spend more time on work and travel and less at home with our families, that’s why it’s so important to convert a house into the source of the positive energy and relaxation.
Some of the best items that unquestionably change the atmosphere in your house are the lighting fixtures of different styles and functions. Just one wall sconce can add the feeling of coziness to a completely bold and ascetic interior.
Generally, this is a huge theme, and probably there are tons of articles written about it, that’s why I would like to highlight a very small sub-theme and talk about colored crystal and glass in lighting fixtures.
Contemporary interior design is quite conservative in the choice of colors that should dominate in the house interior color palette. It’s all explainable and easy to understand – bright and dark colors are tiring for our eyes and nervous system, while neutral “off-white” colors are highly recommended not only by designers by also by doctors, psychologists and psychiatrists. On the other side it’s easy to get bored with such a plain interior, which won’t be healthy as well. Here come the accessories – lamps, cushions, vases, pictures that reflect your tastes and individuality. Recently the use of unexpected colors in lighting fixtures became a real hit in interior design mekkas, such as Milano, Paris, and New York. The designers are now not afraid to experiment with bright topaz, cobalt, amethyst and other colors for their crystal and glass chandeliers. One of the most innovative company in this sphere Schonbek created a modern line of lighting fixtures Geometrix® that comes in 37 different crystal colors in different unique combinations. Swarovski specifically created some of the colors for this company. Another manufacturer De Majo – a famous Italian company offers bright red and black chandeliers in Venetian style, which they suggest to combine with minimalist modern furniture.
Before adding a certain color to your interior, think about it attentively. Is it the color that you usually choose for other things like clothes, shoes, kitchen dishes and cups, because these are the colors that you really like and feel comfortable with? Also do not forget that the colors influence our mood, some are energizing, while the others are depressing. Even with the accessories like lighting fixtures it’s very important. It’s even more important when you are choosing colored crystal as this is the material that from the ancient times is considered as the one that attracts and concentrates good energy coming with the sunlight to our houses. Using crystal pendant or wall sconce you are creating a small subspace of a larger room with its own aura, so think twice before making any decision.
Interior decoration can become a real fun if you use your creativity and try to follow your instincts. Do not hesitate to start right now!!!
