Home Ideology

If you enjoy decorating and creating a glamorous sanctuary within the home, choosing the perfect lighting that encapsulate the space and set a sophisticated tone, can be the most enjoyable part of the entire process.

To create a sophisticated yet glamorous bedroom there are some careful decisions that need to be made so the space doesn’t become too busy or full of a certain theme that can create an overkill of the space.

Lighting is one of the most important elements when translating a certain style into a room. A glamorous space deserves a truly show stopping light fitting that draws the eye in as soon as you walk into a room.

My master bedroom is so light and airy, from a decoration perspective it could handle any colour, bold or subtle. I chose to keep the palette light and fresh, making the room feel welcoming and warm.

I wanted to create a space that I couldn’t wait to cozy down in to of a night, a place that felt warm and luxurious, inviting and magical. My main light fitting had to have a contemporary edge with a classic feel, chrome with an element of decadence.

I chose the Laura Ashley Southwell 5 Arm Chandelier because it has all the elements of a glamorous light fitting with a contemporary feel. It works perfectly with the tone and style of the rest of the room I’ve decorated.

It was so easy to fit (by an electrician) and shorten to my desired height above the bed. It’s perfect and so luxury! Laura Ashley has so much beautiful lighting it was so hard to decide but I’m glad I went for this one. This 5 armed Southwell light fitting is the perfect balance.

The bedroom shouldn’t feel too closed in, but it should feel cosy. The mind should have the space to recharge and rest in comfort. It’s quite easy to accomplish a glamorous look without an overload of decretive décor. Choosing larger statement pieces rather than lots of little décor helps towards the feeling of clear open space, yet still thoughtfully considered with specially selected pieces.

Lighting makes all the difference when creating the perfect ambiance in a room. Different levels of light create a unique space that leads the eye around the room. Floor lamps in corners are also great to make a space feel more inviting and the use of warm bulbs promotes the feeling of warmth and comfort.
