The Charisma of Chic City Lighting

The fun of being dramatic in your decor is allowing your bold spirit to exude into every corner. As a dramatic decorator you are not fearful of doing things differently. Instead, you are drawn to the unexpected. In fact, you thrive on being expressive and dynamic—even a trendsetter.

Lighting creates energy

Close your eyes and picture this: you are enveloped by a cool, still darkness where nothing can be distinguished; then, suddenly someone lifts a shade, letting in brilliant sunlight. Didn’t you automatically breathe more deeply? Didn’t your mood instantly brighten?

That is the effect of light on our moods. Light or the lack of it causes our biological rhythms to fluctuate. Light can move us from doldrums to enthusiasm. In fact, some people suffer from Seasonal Affective Disorder, a depressive condition that improves with light therapy. Consider, too, that animals and birds spark in the spring.

It’s only natural, then, to be excited by the vibrancy of this pendant lighting fixture. The geometric pattern and well-proportioned pomegranate shade parallel the graphic nature of the room: the chair-backs, the bordered rug, the proportioned shelves of the hutch and corner cabinet displaying white or complementary-colored accents.

Even the contrast of the table runner and plates on the deep chocolate table echo the design of the light shade. Just as a black matt expertly exposes the artwork it frames, so the mysterious background of dark furnishings frame this dining table. The center of the room virtually pops to life with the drama of this pendant, lending the whole room a feeling of ultra-modern urban chic. After all, lighting should be another form of self-expression. With this pendant, it is.
