How to Brighten Up 2021: The Year of Chandeliers’ Renaissance
Everyone spent the last few weeks of 2020 looking forward to 2021 as a year that would be so much brighter than 2020 had been. Sadly, we seem to have got off to a rather bleak start. However, whilst the world still seems a dark place, you can certainly illuminate your home in 2021.
All of the extra time that everyone is spending at home is shining a light on those areas that have been on people’s ‘must finish’ list for months, or even years. Lighting can be an overlooked aspect of a person’s home. By the time, you have decorated, bought carpet and bought furniture, your budget has been eaten up. However, interior decorating should be approached quite differently to this. Lighting and lighting arrangements should be at the top of your list when you sit down to furnish your new home, or to redecorate a property. Read on to find out how to brighten up your home in 2021 and why 2021 will be the year of the chandelier’s renaissance. Investing in gorgeous, high-quality lighting is a brilliant decision that you will never regret. Chandeliers are timeless classics that do not go out of style. That is a truism for chandeliers of all sorts of styles, classic and contemporary. That’s because
Chandeliers are versatile
Investing in a statement chandelier, or lighting arrangement for any room is a great way to add drama and a touch of your unique style and personality. And because chandeliers are versatile, there is a chandelier to suit your individual taste and the style of your room out there with your name on it. Whether you have a super modern, minimalist home or a Georgian-inspired period property, choosing a chandelier to suit your home will be a process that you will thoroughly enjoy due to all of the choices and variations. From different colour metal finishes to different colours of glass, to the actual shape and size of the chandelier, Regency Chandeliers and Interiors can find a chandelier for your home, or we can have something made to match your unique vision. Get in touch to discuss your ideas.
Lighter homes make happier homes
SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder) is a condition that is much more well-known today than it was a decade ago. This means that SAD lamps can be purchased far more easily and at a far more wallet-friendly price. We now know the impact that having a well-lit home has on our consciousness. “Natural light is important for our immune system, boosts our vitamin D intake and gives us healthier bones”. This is true, but save from having new, much larger windows added on to your home, it is rather difficult to increase the amount of natural light in your property. No matter how much you spend on paint, curtains and blinds, and furniture, “it’s actually the light that shows off a space to its best advantage”. Great lighting will make your home feel more spacious and welcoming and will even reduce headaches, eye strain and your likelihood of suffering with depression. In short, lighter homes make happier homes.
Make working from home that much brighter
2020 was the year that the world started working from home. This isn’t going to change anytime soon in 2021. With everyone spending so much time at home, we are all seeing our homes in the cold light of day. This is why scores of the population have picked up their hammers and saws and have developed a double dose of the DIY bug. In the first lockdown in spring 2021, a third of people asked by the BBC in a survey said that they were spending their extra time at home doing DIY. If like me, you like the effects of a lick of fresh paint but don’t like all the time-consuming prep work and the mess that comes with tidying up afterwards then doing DIY might not be your ideal way to spend lockdown 3.0. That’s why ordering a new chandelier or lighting arrangement for your home, is the ideal way to breathe fresh life into your home. This is why we know that 2021 will be the year that see chandeliers have a huge renaissance.
