Be the light for your buyers this fall by casting a warm and welcoming glow on your home’s interior spaces with thoughtfully placed and strategically planned lighting. The arrival of fall brings dusk and darkness to the forefront. But, easing into fall and shorter days doesn’t have to pull gloomy interiors along with it.
House Dressings has flipped the switch to find sophisticated budget-friendly (yes - those two words go together!) trending lighting to help brighten interiors. As we often tell our sellers, well-lit rooms look bigger and are more inviting to buyers. No need to hide your light this season — find the power of selling by illuminating your key spaces!
House Dressings sheds light on inspiring lighting trends for Fall 2021 – including:
Tone on Tone.
Looking to add some glow power to your living room without bringing in the blow torch?! Timeless white never goes out of style. Subtle neutral-toned table lamps in whites and ivories (both lamp base and matching shade) look amazing in rooms painted in warm whites.
Bonus tip: We love Sherwin Williams Neutral Ground and Alabaster for walls this year.
Go Natural.
We’re still crushin’ on rattan this season! Fun dome and globe-shaped woven rattan pendants over kitchen islands and dining tables whisper “showstopper.” No volume control needed as rattan blends seamlessly with other room textures including wood and metals.
Bonus Tip: See West Elm’s 26” Wicker Globe Pendant for inspiration when budget shopping.
Industrial style.
Oh yes! If you like to combine contemporary and classic styles, industrial might just be your vibe. We’re seeing artfully distressed wall sconces popping up more and more in bathrooms. Fixtures inspired by pipes, nuts and bolts add interest to vanities while blending well with stone, brick and natural wood finishes.
Bonus tip: Overstock.com has a great selection of affordable industrial style bath vanity lighting options.
A Touch of Modern.
Are you a fan of Mid-Century Modern?! Simple sculpted chandelier designs influenced by modern art-mobiles in gold finishes that float above living rooms and dining rooms give just the right hint of sophistication while also making a semi-bold statement about style and trend.
Bonus Tip: Check out Pottery Barn’s Maise Glass Globe Round Chandelier for an easy entry into the Mid-Century Modern Mobile Chandelier genre.
