How to Add Natural Lighting & Design Elements

“Be one with nature” is a common mantra that helps many people find balance in their lives. What if you could bring the relaxing elements of the outdoors inside your home? A growing trend in home design, more and more natural components can be found in lighting and furniture showrooms. This summer, bring the outdoors in with natural lighting and home décor from Connecticut Lighting Centers! We offer 3 tips to get you started.

Choose a Focal Point

Natural interior roomIf you’re not quite ready to take the leap to a completely natural-themed room design, consider choosing one central piece to highlight. Many homeowners start with a natural backdrop to bring the organic theme into their rooms, then draw attention to it with strategic accent lighting. For example, a wooden wall panel can add texture and fun, but still pairs well with traditional lighting and furniture.

Pair Lighting Fixtures with Home Accents

This may seem like common sense to some homeowners, but the natural theme works best when all aspects of a room follow the trend. Complete the rustic look with wall décor and accent furniture that add texture and lighting that adds depth.

At Connecticut Lighting Centers, we have pendants with branch detailing etched into stainless steel and wooden wall sconces that give rooms a luxurious lodge feel. Paired with a driftwood glass top cocktail table and silver wall leaflets, you can create the calming ambiance you desire.

Add a Pop of Color

When we think of natural colors, many of us think of tan, dark brown and deep green. However, homeowners have an opportunity to add a pop of color to rooms inspired by natural elements. While these neutral tones provide a good base to begin your redesign, think of bright green grass, crystal blue waters and vibrant coral reefs. When adding nature-inspired décor and furniture that complement your home’s lighting design, don’t be afraid to choose bold colors!

Do you need a room in your home that is relaxing and private? Consider designing your space with natural elements that will add a sense of calm and unique character. Visit a Connecticut Lighting Centers showroom near you to shop lighting and home décor!
