A small room can be charming, cosy, and compact, but there’s also a danger of it feeling a bit dark and dingy. If that’s the case, you’ll want to brighten them up the best you can. Well, fear not, because we’ve got a few lighting ideas for small rooms that’ll turn your box room into a well-lit haven.
Wall Sconces
Wall-mounted sconce lights are an excellent way to illuminate any room without eating up floor space. Be sure to install them strategically around your room to create layers of light and create the perfect ambient atmosphere. They work particularly well as bedside lighting or in a hallway. A classy solution that’s sure to add character to your home.
Mirrors
One of the unsung heroes of interior design, mirrors create the illusion of more space, add a focal point to any room, and, well, they’re useful in general. Plus, they bounce light around the room, making them excellent for any space lacking natural light. These qualities make them one of our favourite small living room lighting ideas.
Go Mini
Just because your room is small, doesn’t mean your design ambitions should be. You can easily breathe some new life into your space with your lighting choices. However, it’s important to keep things small. Think miniature table and floor lamps or small pendant lighting. By keeping your lighting fixtures on the smaller side, you’ll add some character to your space without dominating the scene.
Made-To-Measure Shutters
It’s no secret that we love shutters – it’s in the name. But why do we love them? Well, they’re lightweight, stylish, and have a raft of other benefits too. But did you know that they’re also one of the best lighting ideas for small rooms?
With shutter blinds’ movable slats, you can control exactly how much light comes into your home. So, even if you want to maintain your privacy, you can still enjoy plenty of natural light. And if you want to go a step further, you can hinge open your shutter panels for maximum light exposure.
They’re great space savers too. Unlike other window dressings, shutters are fitted flush to your windows, meaning they barely stick out into your room. And even when the panels are opened, they’ll sit neatly against the wall.
