Modern Ceiling Lights

Modern ceiling lights add style and grace to many different styles of room. Contemporary ceiling lights achieve the same result but tend to be ‘of the moment’ and of more unusual designs.

Thankfully the days of a lamp shade hanging from ceiling flex are a thing of the past, and you can let your design flair run wild when choosing a ceiling light to match your modern or contemporary space.

Lighting for the home has come a long way in the past 10 years or so. There has never been so much choice as there is today. At one time, contemporary lighting was only available to the select few who could afford the exclusive designs.

Those days are long gone with major manufacturers employing in house designers, so keeping the cost down. Modern and contemporary fittings are now available in a huge variety of styles at a price to suit everyone.

Contemporary Ceiling Light Fittings

Ceiling light fittings should be part of your overall design scheme, and modern fittings are no exception. Careful thought and consideration at an early stage can ensure that whatever you choose is in keeping with and will greatly enhance the overall look of your home.

Modern light fittings play a pivotal role in achieving the desired effects in the more modern or contemporary setting. A feature polished chrome ceiling light will look fantastic in any modern environment and will reflect borrowed light into the room, even when switched off. When lit, the reflections from the chrome body will create a fantastic effect.

Crystal is making a comeback and looks fantastic in any modern or contemporary setting. Combined with pastel shades, crystal can create a myriad of colours throughout your room as the light refracts through the crystal prisms. Consider using a multicoloured crystal as accent colours in a minimalist space.

Many modern designs use either dedicated LED’s or LED light bulbs to give a crisp white light that can, in many cases be dimmed. Whatever you decide, the only limit on the design is your own imagination.
