Designer Lighting Ideas

Lighting is key for making the most out of your home. What good is collecting stunning designer furniture if it’s hidden away in the shadows your current lighting can’t reach? Finding the perfect designer lighting for your rooms can sometimes be a little difficult, and though you could walk up and down the aisles of home decoration stores trying to find something for you, it might be easier to have a look at some of The Longest Stay’s gorgeous lighting pieces. We’ve selected a range of lighting products from our eclectic collection for you browse through, all from the comfort of your own warm home! 

Lighting is often neglected and deemed as merely a functional piece in the home, rather than one that can add beauty, charm and character. Of course, a light’s functionality is incredibly important, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t have a little fun with lighting in your home too. We have a range of lighting products that are unusual, innovative and quirky - they are ideal for adding a unique touch to your home.

Take, for instance, the Mineheart Eye Doll Lampshade which is stunningly simplistic in design with a distinctive feature – Audrey Hepburn’s eyes. From one angle this ceiling lamp could seem like a stylish but plain white lamp, however, upon closer inspection, this lamp oozes glamour and sophistication with its gorgeous fringe and pop art feel. This lamp takes inspiration from one of the 20th Century’s most iconic Hollywood movie stars, and is also available with another famous pair of eyes - Marilyn Monroe’s.

Introducing colour into your home this season is a must, whether as an accent piece or to complement other colourful furniture. On these cold and miserable January days our homes could definitely use brightening up, both with colour and with light, so why not combine these two trends and install bold designer lighting in your home? We have lighting products available in a variety of different colour options so you’re sure to find one that will suit your existing décor!

The gorgeous Malabar Brillo Floor Lamp, for example, flaunts a unique look, with a colourful stained glass design that has been hand painted by expert craftsmen in Porto. The contrast of the vibrant blues, greens, reds and yellows makes for a floor lamp sure to brighten any room with its warm glow, as well as catching the eye. Its stunning curved structure that holds up the glass shade is made of caviuna, a timber that produces a heavy, hard and dark coloured wood, and makes for a stunning aesthetic.

For owners of more simplistically elegant homes, a minimalist approach to lighting could be for you. The Longest Stay has an array of lighting products that exude a subtle yet luxurious style, enabling you to find the ideal lamp for your room that will light it stunningly, without altering with its overall look.

The Mullan Kigoma Pendant Lamp is a fantastic example of a minimalist design that will bring an air of sophistication into your home with its subtle glow. Its stunning yet stripped back design is intended to showcase the lovely Edison-style bulbs, making for a piece that will become an interesting feature in any room, without overpowering your existing furniture. The lamp’s flat brass saucer reflects the light from the bulb, delicately transferring the warm glow to the space around it.

Installing a more extravagant light will most definitely bring a little glamour into your home for this season, transforming your rooms into sophisticated spaces exuding charm and opulence. Here at The Longest Stay, we love contemporary glamour, and so our lighting range is filled with products that exemplify just that.

The luxurious Linea Verdace X-Light Oval Pendant Light is an elegant creation that is specially designed with its delicate hanging silver balls reflecting both the glow from the light source and natural light during the day. The beautiful chrome holder is another alluring feature, helping to create a piece that will be sure to attract attention wherever you place it.
