20 Designs Where Statement Lighting Transformed The Room

Choosing the perfect light fixture is possibly the best part of the creative and artistic aspect of interior design. It’s an opportunity to create a visual piece of art you get to experience each time you enter the room. Designers know this and will go for it if the time is right. Statement lighting is a lighting fixture chosen for large scale, interesting detail or drama it brings and is intended to bring your eye up to add undeniable style to the room. When deciding on lighting fixtures, statement lighting is a great choice for the perfect room.

Here are 20 designs where the time was right to add statement lighting and create a gorgeous design where it made all the difference.

The shape of the fixture can create a beautiful piece of art set against the rest of the design of the room. The use of an interesting light fixture is also a chance to juxtapose a modern element against an otherwise traditional room.

Never underestimate adding scale to a room that can take it. This large sphere fixture was perfect against the dark beams in this grand entryway. Often when adding scale, the color will be a neutral or white to not interfere with the overall design too much.

Texture is another opportunity to add a statement. Adding a rattan or natural paper light fixture brings a natural element to an otherwise clean and crisp or minimalist room. You can immediately feel the earthy and grounding vibe it brings.

The entryway is often a minimalist space, but these designers added drama and intrigue with this dark two light pendant against stark white walls or this gorgeous brass dripping light fixture that showers light all over the room.

A large brass vintage light fixture is always a great idea. This one will reflect light beautifully and pulls the room together.

A touch of shiny brass in an all white room creates a statement anytime and any place. What a perfect addition this vintage pendant is to this gorgeous entryway.

White plaster light fixtures may or may not be considered statement lighting; however, the impression they make cannot be understated. The bright white color is usually brighter than the white wall paint and the heaviness of the texture from the plaster grounds the space. All while creating a seamless and clean look that we believe most certainly creates a statement. We love it.
