This new lamp is an IKEA classic

When designing the new TRETTIOEN pendant lamp, we copied ourselves. You see, the TRETTIOEN pendant lamp is a timeless classic loved by millions of our customers. So, why re-invent the wheel? The updated version is made from steel and gives the same pleasant direct light as its predecessor.

Choosing the perfect lamp for your space

Know your options

A lamp can help elevate the interiors of your room. But that’s only possible when you choose the right type of lamp for your space. So, before you set out to purchase a room lamp, you must know all your options! Here are a few popular types of lamps and their uses. 

Pendant lamps: These ceiling lights can help create a focal point in the room and are often used over kitchen countertops, living rooms and dinner tables. They can also be used as hall lamps.

  • Ceiling lamps: Unlike pendant lights, ceiling lamps are not suspended through a chord but fixed to the ceiling. These can be used in the kitchen, bathroom, study area, corridor or as hall lamps.
  • Table lamps: Available in a variety of styles, shapes and sizes, table lamps are usually kept on bedside tables in the bedroom. 
  • Study Lamps: Study lamps are a must-have for any study desk or workstation. They provide concentrated light, making it easier for you to focus on your work. 
  • Floor lamps: These tall lamps with supportive bases come in various designs like  tripod, straight or arched. They are usually placed next to the seating area in the living room. Floor work lamps can be kept beside your work or study desks. 
  • Wall lamps and wall spotlights: Fixed on walls, these lamp lights are a great option for the kitchen, study area, dressing room, hallways and bathroom.
  • Ceiling and wall spotlights: These work well for any area where you need focus lighting. 

Consider the room decor

Whether you are choosing a lamp for your bedside table or a floor lamp for your living room, make sure the option you choose goes well with the decor of that particular room. For example, a clay lamp or a rustic lamp light may look out of place if your room has a more contemporary theme. The style and colours of the lamp should complement the design style of the space you plan to keep them at. 

Choose the right size

The size of the room lamp you choose should be in sync with the furnishings around it. If you are buying a table lamp, make sure that it doesn't take up all the surface space. Whether it's your work desk or a bedside table, you still need some space to keep your things. You can find a variety of sleek work lamps and compact table lamp designs at IKEA. 

While choosing a floor lamp, make sure to consider the size of your room. If you have a big room with a lot of floor area, floor lamps with a larger base or a tripod base can give it a luxurious vibe. For small and cosy rooms, stick to sleek floor lamps or space-saving arched lamps. 

Pendant lamps and chandeliers are the right choices for your space if you have a high ceiling. If your ceiling is particularly low, choose LED spotlights, ceiling lights and recessed room lamp lights instead. 

Select the right material

Lamps come in a variety of materials including ceramic, stone, wood, paper, fabric, metal, plastic and glass. To choose the right material, take a look at your interiors. Is your  furniture mostly metal? Or is wood the most common material used throughout the interior? The lamp you choose should complement the theme of your room. Also, ensure that the option you pick features high-quality construction and finish. 

Another way to choose the right lamp material is according to the usage of the space you’ll be keeping it at. For quiet spaces, you can choose a clay, glass, ceramic or crystal lamp. For busier parts of the house, it is best to stick with materials that aren’t easy to damage or break. 

Fun and quirky lamps for your lil’ one!

Elegant and sophisticated lamp lighting is perfect for your bedroom, living room, dining area etc. But when it comes to the children's room, you’d probably want to pick something fun, whimsical and colourful. At IKEA, you’ll find a range of fun and functional lighting solutions for your child’s bedroom. 

Help them overcome their fear of the dark with our LED wall lamp lightings and night lights available in various playful shapes like animals, flowers and soccer balls! Our collection also includes a variety of super cool table lamps for your kid’s study table. 

Safety and quality are two things that you’ll never have to worry about while buying an IKEA lamp or light. Our children’s lighting solutions are completely child safe.
