FOLLOWING LIGHTING TRENDS
AND OUTDOOR LIVING WITH STYLE
by Glenda Milam
We attended the International Lighting Show in Dallas this January and we spotted these new lighting
trends.
#1 Chrome may seem contemporary, but the simple addition of crystals with traditional shapes or frames
makes a transitional piece.
#2 Bronze finishes, silver/gold leaf and heavy metal accents were the shining stars in chandeliers.
#3 Crystal chandeliers are back and the real winners have clean lines and contemporary crystals.
#4 Rounded and oval shapes are helping to bridge the gap between contemporary and traditional worlds.
#5 LED is becoming much more mainstream and consumers that are willing to invest in green energy are
loving it.
#6 Pendants are still a big favorite with many practical applications. Adding pendants or small chandeliers
together in groups or on either side of a bath mirror can create a very unique look.
#7 Track lighting is making a big comeback. Use it throughout the house with no room off limits.
#8 Lamp shades appear softer on the eyes, but still hold that contemporary edge. Pair the shades with bases
that are vibrant, acrylic, chrome or wood and metal for a modern approach.
OUTDOOR LIVING TRENDS
#1 My favorite trends are industrial based, specifically accent/dining tables and bright, cheerful fabrics.
#2 Sectionals for large, outdoor living spaces are a hot trend to follow. We offer them in slip-covered versions
with fabric selections as stylish as their indoor counterparts, yet able to withstand the elements.
#3 Synthetic wicker and sturdy extruded aluminum provide carefree maintenance and comfort.
#4 Slip-covered outdoor furniture paired with with synthetic wicker creates a trendy, eclectic feel in your
outdoor space.
#5 Indoor/Outdoor rugs are fabulous! They are available from doormats to 8x11. Rugs are especially useful in
merging color palates of a room, tying multiple styles together to create a strong unity.
