A few easy ways to light up your life
Different activities call for different types of lighting, so make sure your space is designed to fit your unique needs. Here’s how to light the way.
Picture lights
A stylish picture light will put some extra focus on your artwork while setting the mood at the same time.
Reading lamps
Place a dimmable bulb in your reading lamp to seamlessly switch between direct, bright light and more subtle mood lighting.
Cabinet lighting
Beloved books add a ton of character, so give them the attention they deserve by highlighting them with cabinet lighting. As a bonus, this low lighting also sets a mellow mood.
Dimmable dining pendant lamps
We like to place our pendant lamps 60 cm above the dining table to keep the light out of your eyes. An opal white bulb gives a soft, even glow.
Portable task lights
Light your way wherever you go, with a small and convenient LED lamp. Its sculptural design adds a cool touch to any space.
Decorative lamps
Sometimes light sources function more as decorative touches. We love the cosy, comforting ambience this lamp gives.
Mood lighting
Feeling a little old school? Opt for less-expected but totally traditional light sources, like this dimmable lantern. It really brings the charm.
Festive touches
String lights aren’t just for your outdoor space. Bring them inside to dress up your home for special occasions (or any old day, really).
We love to see our customers get creative with our products. Go for it! But please note that altering or modifying IKEA products so they can no longer be re-sold or used for their original purpose, means the IKEA commercial guarantees and your right to return the products will be lost.
