Industrial Lighting: Trends and What's New

The industrial style has become a staple of interior design, and industrial lighting plays a key role in creating its distinctive atmosphere. With its mix of raw materials, simple lines and “unfinished” look, this type of lighting gives any room a contemporary, distinctive feel. In this article we explore the latest trends and new developments in industrial lighting.

Trends in industrial lighting

• Raw materials: One of the most important elements of industrial lighting is the use of unprocessed materials such as steel, wood or concrete. Lamps and light fixtures made from these materials bring an authentic, durable feel to a space.
• Minimalist design: Simple lines and geometric shapes are increasingly popular. Simply designed light fixtures such as pendant lights or ceiling spotlights are preferred, steering clear of excessive ornament.
• Vintage lighting: The industrial style is often associated with a retro look inspired by old factories and warehouses. Lamps with exposed bulbs, especially filament bulbs, are a key element of this style.
• Warm, diffused light: To create a cosy atmosphere, industrial lighting relies on warm light that can be adjusted to suit the needs of the space.

What's new in industrial lighting

• LED technology: In recent years, LED technology has revolutionised industrial lighting, allowing far greater energy efficiency and slimmer designs. LED lamps can imitate the look of old-fashioned bulbs while using much less energy.
• Customised lighting: Another new development is the ability to customise lighting so that it fits the interior design perfectly. Adjustable light fixtures, which let you change the direction of the light, are increasingly popular in industrial interiors.
• Smart lighting: Smart lighting is a growing trend, and internet-connected lighting systems are more and more popular. They can be controlled remotely and programmed to create different moods depending on the time of day or what you are doing.

How to bring industrial lighting into your interior design

• Use exposed bulbs: A simple trick for adding an industrial feel to any room is to choose exposed bulbs, especially ones with a visible filament. They are perfect for creating a warm, industrial atmosphere.
• Pair it with rustic furniture: Industrial lighting goes beautifully with furniture in raw wood, metal and other natural materials. Combining industrial light fixtures with more rustic pieces of furniture creates an interesting contrast.
• Open-plan spaces: This type of lighting is ideal for large, open spaces such as lofts or industrial-style kitchens. Pendant lighting or oversized lamps can be used to create a focal point in the room.
