Design Your Own Tranquil Respite With These Bedroom Lighting Ideas
An Elegant Bedroom With Sculptural Lighting
Bathed in rich cocoa tones, this bedroom by Christiana Engert pairs clean lines with plush textures for a look that’s grounded yet elevated. The sculptural brass lamp, velvet pillows and warm neutral finishes together craft a serene, quietly luxurious escape.
Grounded In Neutrals
Designer Jordan Carlyle used subtle lighting and tonal textures to create a calming yet artful guest bedroom in this Tribeca pied-à-terre. A sculptural matte black floor lamp by Visual Comfort lends vertical presence beside the bed, while porcelain cluster pendants by Farrah Sit cast a soft glow over the dramatically contoured upholstered wall, turning it into a serene focal point.
Warm Tones Amid A Cozy Glow
A vintage brass sconce casts a soft glow over this primary bedroom's rich textures and warm wood in this cozy Nashville cottage. Paired with a velvet headboard and a sculptural nightstand, the light creates a restful mood grounded in layered elegance.
Refined Light In A Quiet Retreat
A slender floor lamp offers subtle illumination beside the upholstered bed in this Nashville cottage. Paired with tailored bedding and paneled walls, the lighting enhances the room’s crisp composition.
A Layered Look With Playful Symmetry
In Alabama, designer Leigh Misso chose a sculptural pendant by Visual Comfort & Co. to echo this bunk room’s joyful symmetry. The white fixture anchors the patterned ceiling and softens the graphic lines throughout. A rattan table lamp adds warmth beside a vintage chair, inviting quiet moments within a lively shared space.
Soft Radiance In A Stylish Escape
In a luxurious Charlotte residence, sculptural pendants by Hudson Valley Lighting flank the tufted headboard, while the Arden chandelier by Visual Comfort & Co. crowns the space with elegance. The glow from the fireplace adds a gentle flicker, balancing the room’s clean lines and creamy textures.
Twin Table Lamps Add To This Serene Bedroom
Lucy Roland crafts a space that feels both serene and intentional in this modern Oregon bedroom. Textured ceramic lamps by Arteriors bring symmetry to each side of the bed. Their gentle glow enlivens the palette of sandy tones and ocean-inspired blues.
A Sweet Space With A Rosy Glow
Designer Elizabeth Cole chose sculptural pink lamps by Liz Marsh Designs to mirror the rosy wallpaper in this vibrant Houston retreat. The layered palette of blush and ivory is made warmer by the gentle light, creating a space that’s serene with a hint of playfulness.
Head In The Clouds
A whimsical chandelier of clustered globes by Apparatus Studio adds a dose of drama to this streamlined space in Tribeca, its sculptural form pulling the eye upward. The bold fixture plays beautifully against the vertical rhythm of arched windows and floor-length drapery, a balanced touch by Jordan Carlyle.
A Geometric Chandelier Grounds A Serene Bedroom
A geometric chandelier by Thomas O’Brien for Visual Comfort & Co. provides contrast in this otherwise relaxed bedroom retreat in Hudson Valley, New York. Its strong lines echo the black window trim while grounding the room’s layered textures and neutral palette.
Soft Pendant Light Complements This Bedroom
Set against a backdrop of ocean blues and warm wood slats, Pinch’s Anders light adds softness to the bedroom of this Miami condo. The fluttering fixture floats above crisp white linens and sandy-toned accents, echoing the serene views just outside.
