As ubiquitous as lighting is to modern living, it’s easy to overlook how important it is to have the right type in your space. This is especially true of new homes with recessed LED lights that cast a cool glow – they have a great lifespan but aren’t always easy on the eyes.
Enter the table lamp. Lamps offer tons of flexibility while directing light to specific areas in ways that traditional lighting can’t. And, choosing an aesthetic lamp has the added bonus of enhancing the overall look and feel of a room.
Here are 5 of our favorite table lamps that transform your space into a cozy and stylish environment:
1. Mushroom Table Lamp in Blush Pink
Why we love it
The mushroom shape adds a playful, nostalgic vibe perfect for mid-century modern and retro decor. While there are a ton of colors to choose from, we love how the soft matte finish of the pink table lamp accentuates the slender design. It gives off a soft, downcast glow that’s great for shining light directly over a desk or creating a laid-back ambiance.
2. Curvy Metal Table Lamp
Why we love it
If you’re new to decorating with lamps, this is an easy one to start with. The curvy silhouette and solid color is versatile enough to complement tons of different design styles.
3. Face Table Lamp
Why we love it
The combination of the subtly chiseled face and textured finish on this table lamp, along with the linen shade adds an organic feel that looks great on any tabletop or nightstand – especially when turned on. It’s also LED compatible for added energy efficiency. Try using this lamp with a soft white or vintage bulb for an extra cozy effect!
4. Textured Arch Table Lamp
Why we love it
While the combination of ridges with the archway shape gives us the warm and cheerful feeling of discovering a rainbow, the neutral cream color adds a touch of sophistication great for modern spaces.
5. Abstract Column Table Lamp
Why we love it
The curved top and bottom, along with the speckled cement look of the lamp base adds a distinctive look and feel that goes well with mid-century modern decor. Pairing this with a color changing bulb plays up the shadows that this angular lamp casts, making it a cool decorative accent piece.
