Having an older property shouldn’t be a bar to style. If your home was built before 1998, there’s a chance that you’ll need to use double insulated lighting. Designed to compensate for the lack of earthing in older electrical systems, double insulated lights protect users against electric shock. But just because it’s an older technology doesn’t mean that it can’t have contemporary style.
As the entryway to your home, your hallway is often what creates the first impression for visitors. But it also has to be functional and appealing for you. And that’s where a ceiling light like the Laura Ashley Beckworth comes in. The antique brass and glass combination is warm and welcoming, while the design blends both old and new, creating a timeless piece that would look at home in almost any space.
Whether you have a separate dining room or a kitchen diner, your lighting can really help to define the space and bring both character and atmosphere. And among the most popular dining room lighting trends is to have a large, low-hanging light above the dining table. The Dar Lighting Exodus was simply made for this. Crafted from polished nickel and high-quality crystal, this stylised starburst immediately grabs the attention. Creating a focal point, while delivering perfect illumination.
If you’re wanting something a little bit different for your living room, double insulated ceiling lights also deliver. One of our favourites is the Dar Lighting Inter. The flush fixture is cool and contemporary, but it’s the beautifully iridised, cylindrical glass shades that really raise this light to another level. The low-profile design makes this the ideal choice for rooms with lower ceiling heights, and it could even work well in a snug. But it would still look fabulous in a taller room, drawing the eye upwards to emphasise the space. Prefer the pendant style? The Dar Lighting Ruben cluster could do the job, bringing your lighting lower. This would work particularly well in rooms with two ceiling lights.
For a classic look in the bedroom, there’s the Laura Ashley Cossington. The marble effect glass is the perfect choice for the bedroom, where you never really want or need super-bright ceiling lights. The antique brass fitting brings warmth to the design, while the overall aesthetic is one of timeless elegance.
Have you ever seen a better light for a space enthusiast than the Dar Lighting Saturn pendant? This beautifully crafted light is made of glass, so you’d want to hang it high to avoid any exuberant accidents. But this is an amazing light fixture that will appeal to all ages. All you need is a little imagination to be off on your own interplanetary adventure! While for children whose interests are more grounded, there’s the Dar Lighting Raul Monkey wall light. Finished with gold leaf, this light is as lovely as it is fun. And it would light up a nursery beautifully.
The need for double insulated lights needn’t prevent you from expressing your personal style at home. With a little bit of browsing, you can find the perfect lights to bring your home to life.
