Regardless of whether your house is a masterpiece work of art or a modest representation of treasure trove of eccentric classical fortunes, it's totally fundamental to locate the correct lighting for your stylistic pad. Here I will be bringing for my readers an article depicting the change in lighting style from vintage to contemporary.
According to me the contemporary light is about sleek lines and innovative concepts and the old vintage light is about casting captivating patterns which is traditional in nature. Here's showing an example of a lighting brand on the left from Giopato & Coombes depicting the magical moment of soap bubbles. The collection is called Bolle in transparent glass, where the illuminating brass bulb is suspended between the spheres, lighting not only the space but also the curved surfaces, multiplying reflections and amplifying the magical effect. Isn't it magical?
Lantern is an old world charm which has been given a new shape by Bomma. I am considering this design as the new version of an old and vintage style of light. Combining an ancient shape with crystal, this Lantern seems ephemeral. Almost invisible, yet strong in design, it is simultaneously traditional and contemporary in nature.
As light as it looks, the forms of Cercle & trait rub together and hold together in a cleverly measured balance. A graphic pendant, available in different finishes, is just held by one small wire. Such is the beauty of contemporary light from CVL Luminaries as you can see a strong connection of geometry and straight lines. Truly bedazzling moment for me to even present this light for you.
Rock Crystal collection from Hammerton Studio captures the raw beauty of natural rock quartz in LED illuminated artisan blown glass. The juxtaposition of symmetric and asymmetric elements lends visual drama to this intriguing design which can be easily called vintage in nature with a modern twist. I truly believe in the magic of old world charm and this light does that in totality.
Calicem, the collection of light from Art Glass is like Indian summer, is inspired by a cascade of water. Fan-shaped layered chains are reminiscent of delicate cobwebs glittering in the light of an Indian summer. The light source is hidden at the core of the lighting fixture, behind chains in the golden colours of autumn leaves. A trendy representation of the change in weather conditions. Everyday phenomena captured through contemporary technique.
I seriously feel that in today's context there is a thin line between modern and vintage lighting as the old vintage style is adapted beautifully giving it a modern twist. Even a chandelier which use to be the captivating centrepiece is being reproduced using modern sleek and trendy touch. Hope you have liked reading this blog.
