The Architectural Shift Toward Creative Industrial Lighting

Oct 6, 2017

Creative industrial lighting merges contemporary lighting design with a historically rudimentary lighting aesthetic to meet the growing demand for a multi-functional lighting system that is technically engineered and efficient. The Increasing popularity of this style is seeing designers make a shift toward creating lighting that is modular and adjustable to complement and integrate within the architectural space. This type of industrial lighting is increasingly visible in restaurants, retail environments and residential spaces. It offers a sleek and minimal approach that can be seen in both commercial and residential environments.

How to Use Industrial Style at Home

When considering an industrial lighting layout, it is important to understand the purpose of the room or space that you are illuminating, the level of light needed and any areas that need highlighting. By taking a more technical approach to lighting, it is possible to map out your lighting system and how it will interact with the architectural space, furniture and other design elements. Decorative interior lighting will improve the ambience within commercial or residential environments and create an engaging home.

The industrial style works well with functional spaces such as kitchens and bathrooms, where light can be efficiently directed onto work areas and optimised to reduce glare and clutter. It also works well in open living spaces, where a sleek, clean and minimal lighting layout may complement reclaimed materials, wood or metal structures to create a mood for relaxing and entertaining.
