Light is utterly important when it comes to interior design. The ambiance created by lighting effects changes the appearance of a room and the way it is perceived by us, as well enhancing whichever piece of art or piece of decor we desire. It can express warmth, coziness, happiness, romance or the opposite, sterility, coldness, strictness. The last set of atmospheres is usually obtained through cold lighting fixtures such as steel chandeliers or concrete, modern pieces. For a home however, we should be thinking more in therms of natural warm materials such as the classical wood. Combined with whatever material, it can sweeten it, make it more mellow and likable. And because we talk about home aesthetics, we have searched for a variety of DIY wood lamps and chandeliers projects which are easy enough to be made by anyone and still look stylish and edgy enough to look like bought from a designer’s shop.
Drift wood and old metallic steam punk lamps are usually combined for a vintage, industrial effect which has its uniqueness and degree of personalization we love. You will encounter among the pieces from the gallery below simple, yet very visually pleasant pieces and dramatic branch chandeliers perfect for over the dinning room table, pieces that will remark themselves by the shape and texture of the wood used and by the impressive effect they can have over a room.
