Lamps

With the right lamps, you not only make a room brighter, but also more comfortable to live in. In this collection, you’ll find lighting for different places in the home, from the dining table to a side table or an empty corner in the living room. That way, you can easily choose a lamp that suits both your interior and how you use the space.

Lamps for every place in the home

Good lighting brings balance to your interior. A pendant lamp provides focused light above the table, while a table lamp or floor lamp helps add warmth and depth. So think not only about the design, but also about where the lamp will stand and how much light you need there.

Are you looking for a lamp for above the table or kitchen island? Then take a look at our pendant lamps and practical dining room lamps. For a sideboard, bedside table or desk, table lamps are often a great choice. If you want to fill a dark corner without adding extra furniture, floor lamps are ideal.

Selection guide: which lighting suits your space?

Choose by function

First ask yourself what the lamp needs to do. Are you looking for general lighting for the whole room, reading light next to the sofa, or mood lighting for the evening? For overall light, a pendant lamp often works well. For a softer effect, combine it with a table lamp or wall lamp.

Pay attention to size and proportions

A lamp that is too small will disappear, while an overly large model can feel cluttered. Above a dining table, a lamp may stand out clearly, but make sure there is still enough free space around it. On a narrow cabinet or windowsill, a compact model often works better, such as a small table lamp. In a large living room, you can instead choose a taller lamp with more presence.

Consider the light source and direction

Directional light is useful next to an armchair or workspace. If you want a calm and diffuse light effect, choose a shade or glass that softens the light. Wall lamps are also great if you have limited space on a table or floor.

Tips for combining lamps well

An interior often feels more polished when you use multiple light sources. For example, combine a pendant lamp with a table lamp on a sideboard and a floor lamp next to the sofa. This creates more depth and allows you to adjust the lighting to suit the time of day.

Also look at material and colour. Metal often creates a cleaner look, while glass or a fabric shade makes the light feel more inviting. Subtly repeat a colour or finish in other home accessories so everything ties together more beautifully. If you choose mood lighting, make sure the light feels warm and isn’t too bright for the room.

Practical tips for use and placement

Hang a lamp above the dining table at a height where you can still easily see each other. A table lamp is better placed slightly away from the edge of a corner, a little freer on the furniture for a better light effect. With a floor lamp, it’s useful to pay attention to walking space and the position of the cord. If you use multiple lamps in one room, try to vary the height and function. That looks calmer than everything being at the same level.

Frequently asked questions about lamps

Which lamp is suitable for above the dining table?

A pendant lamp is usually the best choice for above the dining table. Pay attention to the length of the table and choose a model that is in proportion. For a long table, multiple light sources or an elongated model often work well.

How do I choose the right lamp size?

Look at the size of the room and the furniture the lamp will be used with. A compact model works better on a small table, while a tall corner in the living room may call for a larger floor lamp.

How do I combine different types of lighting?

Work in layers. Start with general lighting, then add a lamp for focused light and finish with mood lighting. That way, the space is both practical and pleasant to use.

What should I pay attention to with a table lamp?

Pay attention to the height, the width of the shade and the position of the switch. A table lamp should fit well on the piece of furniture and provide enough light for what you do there, such as reading or adding extra light in the evening.

Are lamps only meant for indoors?

Not every lamp is suitable for outdoors. So always check whether a model is intended for outdoor use if you’re looking for lighting for the garden, balcony or veranda.
