Floor lamps are great for so many reasons. Both versatile and practical, these lighting fixtures can literally be used in all the rooms throughout your home – it just depends on their placement!
Living and common rooms
For example, try placing a couple modern floor lamps beside your sofa or near a chair to add some layers of lighting to the room. This will bring warmth to your space, making it a great way to offer a space for relaxation and socializing.
If you’re a big reader, adding a floor lamp with an adjustable arm to your nook will make you never want to leave. Add a cosy throw blanket to your favourite chair and voila! The rest is book-heaven history.
Bedrooms
As for the boudoir, a floor lamp can serve as an alternative to traditional bedside table lamps. Not only can it free up space on your nightstand – or even eliminate the need for one to begin with – it is the perfect way to set the tone for the evening. Cue soft, ambient light for reading or winding down.
And whether you’ve got a walk-in closet or a single wardrobe, placing a floor lamp near your closet or dressing area will help to add the proper lighting when choosing your outfit for the day. Say hello to cute clothes and bye-bye to outfit regret.
Entryways, hallways, and sunrooms
Try placing a floor lamp near your entrance to create a welcoming glow for you and others coming in from the cold. You can take advantage of this placement to serve it as a fashion statement, making a great first impression as guests enter into your home through the entrance and hallway.
As for the sunroom, try positioning a floor lamp near your indoor plants to ensure they receive enough light during the darker months. This is especially useful in rooms with limited natural light.
