But with the right coffee table decor ideas, it can also be a blank canvas for creativity. It’s the centrepiece of your living room, the star of Instagram flat lays, and the perfect spot to showcase your style. Whether you’re a maximalist enthusiast (like us at Audenza) or a minimalist, your coffee table deserves some love—and we’ve got all the tips to give it some pizazz. From everyday style to festive Christmas magic, let’s dive in!

What Decor Goes on a Coffee Table?

If you’re staring at your coffee table wondering where to start, don’t worry. Here’s our foolproof guide to styling mastery.

Trays: Stylish and Practical

Trays are your secret weapon for a tidy coffee table and styling in general. They keep everything organised and give your vignette a cohesive look. When you’re styling a vignette, using a decorative tray helps to ground the space and provides a base for all of your other decorative items.

The added bonus of using a tray in this situation is that it makes it super easy to clear the table when you need more space (or when unexpected guests show up).

Coffee Table Books: The MVP of Styling

No coffee table is complete without a stack of books. Go for oversized, glossy covers on topics you love—think fashion, travel, or art. Even better, choose something that sparks conversation. We’re maximalists over here at Audenza, so we love to use books as an opportunity to pack some pops of colour into the space! A stack of beautiful coffee table books gives height, texture, and personality to your setup.

Beautiful Everyday Objects

There are certain functional objects we need on our coffee table, so use this as an opportunity to further add a touch of flair to your styling, such as these fabulous Leopard Print Coasters or these stunning black marbled coasters that effortlessly combine functionality with style.

Candles for Ambience and Aroma

Candles are the multitaskers of the decor world. They look gorgeous, set the mood, and make your space smell amazing. Don’t just think of them in terms of plain scented candles either – something like this Artichoke Tealight Holder is perfect for adding the ambience of a candle, with the beauty of a décor item.

Natural Elements: Bring the Outdoors In

The trend for bringing the glories of the outdoors, inside with luscious potted plants gives us endless choices, whether real or faux, so they are a must for adding that essential warmth to a display that greenery brings. And if you’re not green-fingered, this is where faux plants are perfect – no TLC required!

Personal (and Quirky!) Touches

And last but not least, jazz it up and make it personal to you and your style. So, for the final flourish, we recommend adding something quirky and unexpected that brings a smile to your face and brightens up your day. Whether it’s a Gold Rock on Hand or a family heirloom that tells a story, the key is to include something that makes you smile.

How to Style a Coffee Table?

1. Style in threes: ever notice how things look better in threes? It’s science—or at least interior design science! Grouping objects in odd numbers creates a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing look, and prevents your styling from becoming too symmetrical and boring. Group items like books, candles, and a small plant to create a visually pleasing arrangement.
2. Don’t overcrowd it: as die-hard maximalists, you may be surprised to read this one from us, but it’s important not to overcrowd it – your coffee table still needs to function. After all, you do still need space for your morning coffee (or evening vino!). The key is for it to look curated, not cluttered.
3. Think about heights: vary the heights of your objects for visual interest – the eye should wander around the scene. If you have a piece you really want to display but it’s the wrong height, this is where a stack of nice books under the item is great for adding extra height. But just be aware not to block the TV remote with a giant vase for instance!
4. Mix textures and materials: think about combining different materials and textures, such as smooth, shiny, rough, and soft. Balancing different materials such as glass, wood, metal, ceramic, and even plants creates visual interest. A juxtaposition of textures creates that layered, curated look.

How to Make It Christmassy?

‘Tis the season to add some festive magic! But we don’t want to go overboard, so here are a few festive touches to add that all-important Christmas sparkle…

Add Seasonal Touches

Swap out some of your decorative items for a few Christmas touches, like a bowl of gorgeous colourful baubles, or a glass jar filled with twinkly fairy lights. If it glitters or glows, it’s fair game!

Add Some Sparkle

If you don’t add fairy lights to every surface in your house, is it really Christmas?! They are the easiest way to add a gorgeous, warm, Christmas glow to your living room. But be warned, go for ones with a timer function, or you will spend half an hour each day turning them on and off!

Christmas Colour Palette

We love to change up the colours on our coffee table to reflect the holiday season. For us, this means gorgeous deep, rich jewel colours with lashings of gold, but go for whatever colours mean Christmas to you.

Personal Touches

And finally, add something meaningful, like a framed photo of last year’s Christmas memories or a handwritten card. It’s these little details that make your decor feel special and unique.

Conclusion: Style Your Coffee Table Like a Pro

Your coffee table is more than just a functional piece of furniture—it’s a chance to showcase your style and set the tone for your living room. So, we hope these tips on how to style your coffee table have given you some ideas to create your perfect look, now grab your favourite coffee table books, light a candle, and get styling!

So, today we are going to look at some of the key things to consider when choosing your perfect table lamps, to help you brighten up your space! 

Set The Scene 

The most important job of a table lamp is to set the scene and create the perfect ambience. The trend has been steadily moving away from relying on a single central light or a grid of recessed LED spotlights, towards softer, more ambient illumination, and table lamps are perfect for this. 

Table lamps offer a warmth and glow that no other form of light can quite match. And because of their variety of sizes and styles, they are absolutely perfect for lighting up any dark corners. 

To create a cosy and inviting atmosphere, you want to strategically place table lamps around the room, so that the glow of light is balanced and you’ve eliminated any dark spots. The key to success with lighting is to remember to always layer it up, and never to rely on one light source. 

Consider the Purpose 

The next step is to consider what you need the lamp to achieve. Do you want task lighting for reading, for example, if so, you will want a much brighter light, but also potentially one that can be angled. Once you know what you want the lamp to achieve, it’s much easier to choose an appropriate design. 

For instance, a dark lampshade will give a softer glow of light than a paler lampshade. A table lamp with open bulbs will obviously give off a much brighter glow, than a lamp with a shade. A lamp with multiple bulbs will give off more light than one bulb. These all sound like obvious points, but it can be easy to forget the obvious when you’re swayed by a beautiful design! However, the important thing with lighting is to consider function and aesthetics. 

Add a Showstopper Piece 

Table lamps are available in so many styles, colours, sizes, materials…the list goes on! But this is ultimately why they are perfect for adding a show-stopping focal point to your decor, as you can always find the perfect one to add that final pizzazz to your scheme. 

There are so many ways to add a show stopping table lamp, depending on your own tastes. You could go for an oversized table lamp and play on a scale to create an impact, or why not choose a bold-coloured table lamp to add a focal point to your scheme. But what we think is particularly striking, is table lamps with artistic or abstract bases, like this Naked Lady Black Table Lamp with Black Shade. Gracefully sculpted, the side table lamp features an exquisite silhouette of a curved woman who becomes bathed in a soft, alluring glow when you turn on the lamp. 

All these types of table lamps, elevate a functional piece to a centrepiece that enhances the overall aesthetic of a room. 

Size Matters - Selecting the Right Size and Style for Your Home

Think about where you are placing your table lamp. You don’t want it to look out of proportion to the surface it’s on. If you are placing your table lamp on a fireplace or windowsill, make sure the shade diameter isn’t too wide, as you don’t want the shade to overhang the surface it is placed on. 

Another important factor with sizing is to consider the height, as you don’t want to have the lamp at the wrong height and all you see is the inside of the table lamp! If you are using the lamps at the side of the sofa, make sure the top of the lamp is just above eye level from when you are sat on the sofa. 

Now you’ve got those tips fresh in your mind, and you’re ready to brighten up your interior, let’s take a look at some of our favourite styles of lamps. 

Animal Table Lamps 

We can’t get enough of animal table lamps for the quirky touch they add to a scheme. Whether you go for a Cheeky Hiding Hare with Hot Pink Shade, or a slightly more understated and subtle design like the Stalking Panther Lamp with Black Shade, you really can’t go wrong. Animal table lamps add a talking point to a room like no other lamp can! 

Glass Table Lamps 

Glass table lamps add a modern and stylish touch and they can complement various interior design styles, from modern to traditional. With an array of gorgeous colours to choose from, like this Green Glass Table Lamp | Green Velvet Shade, or Plum Glass Table Lamp | Velvet Plum Shade, you can easily add a playful pop of colour to your home. Whichever you choose, these glass table lamps all exude elegance and add a stylish addition to your decor. 

Feather Table Lamps

Nothing says Art Deco elegance quite like a feather table lamp. These lamps are the perfect blend of glamour, sophistication, and a touch of nature, making them ideal for those wanting to introduce a sense of refined luxury into their space. Feather table lamps instantly transform your home with an exotic allure, offering a soft, diffused light that creates a warm and inviting atmosphere. The beautiful feathered exterior gently filters light, casting a delicate glow that can change the ambiance of any room, whether it’s a living area or bedroom.

The White Ostrich Feather Table Lamp is particularly striking with its beautifully evocative ostrich feather fronds, providing a unique, ethereal texture that elevates any interior. The cascading feathers offer a sense of movement, making it not only a source of light but also a statement piece of art in its own right. Combining Art Deco influences with a subtle Eastern vibe, this lamp marries the old-world charm of the Roaring Twenties with contemporary elegance. The contrast between the soft, natural feathers and the sleek, elegant base creates a piece that is both functional and decorative.

Whether you’re looking to enhance your living room, bedroom, or any other space in your home, a Feather Table Lamp adds an undeniable sense of sophistication. Its ability to emit a comforting glow, paired with its intricate design, makes it a conversation starter that enhances the character of any room. Let this lamp be a centrepiece that exudes timeless beauty, combining a luxurious feel with the calming essence of nature.

So, as you can see, lighting is one of the key factors in making an interior design scheme pop. Unlike a decorative piece, like artwork, lighting serves a fundamental purpose, but if it’s used correctly, it can also act as an accent and an additional styling tool. So, we hope we’ve given you enough tips and ideas today, to help you incorporate table lamps expertly into your own home.

An eye-catching hallway light fixture can make a space feel warm, inviting, and spacious. From practical wall lights to stylish hallway pendant lights and cosy hallway lamps, there are countless options to illuminate your hallway.

Narrow hallway lighting ideas are often overlooked, but it’s the perfect opportunity to set the tone for the rest of your home. When done correctly, hallway lighting – much like mirrors – can make a small space appear larger and more welcoming, making it an essential design element to consider.

Choose Pendant Lighting to Define Your Hallway Style

Pendant lights are an excellent choice for adding style to your hallway. They can make a statement, elevate your decor, and express your personal taste. Ideal for narrow hallways, pendant lighting can transform the space into a stylish, well-lit passage. Position hallway pendant lights at a suitable height to avoid obstructing movement while adding a touch of elegance and sophistication.

The Aurora Small Gold Starburst Ceiling Light is perfect for a hallway. This statement piece, with its eight lights, disperses a beautiful, warming glow throughout the room. Its metallic gold finish adds a touch of glamour with a quirky, intergalactic twist.

Create a Warm and Inviting Atmosphere with Table Lamps

When lighting a hallway, consider the atmosphere you want to create. You might want a ceiling light for everyday use and a table lamp for a softer, more intimate feel when hosting. Combining different types of lighting adds depth and interest to your space while maintaining functionality.

Decorating console tables or side tables with stylish hallway lamps is an easy way to introduce ambient lighting to your hallway. A carefully chosen hallway lamp can set a mood of warmth and relaxed happiness, ensuring that the hallway isn’t overly bright.

In addition to providing functional tasks and accent lighting, table lamps can serve as beautiful decorative pieces. Placing one or two hallway table lamps on a console table gives you an opportunity to express your style from the moment visitors step in. The Stalking Panther Table Lamp brings an element of glamorous Art Deco charm, and its slim design is perfect for narrow hallways.

To add a touch of luxury to a dark hallway, opt for a hallway lamp with a brushed brass finish. A classic design with a simple silhouette, like the Elegant Brass Table Lamp with Green Velvet Shade, offering a timeless look. Its slender base and rich, emerald-green shade add warmth and a lovely glow when illuminated.

Opt for Wall Sconces to Add Interest and Dimension

If your hallway is narrow or you simply want to enhance your walls, wall lights or sconces are an excellent option. They add depth and dimension to an entryway while also illuminating a console table and casting light upwards to create the illusion of a larger space.

The Antique Golden Leaf Wall Light is a stunning new addition to the Audenza range, perfect for bringing a sense of vintage grandeur to your interior. Its rustic gold finish and traditional palm leaf design provide a soft, diffused light that enhances any hallway. Sconces are a great alternative to chandeliers or hallway pendant lights in spaces with low ceilings.

Make a Statement with a Stand-Alone Piece

Hallway lighting doesn’t have to be purely functional; it can also serve as a bold design feature. Consider a standout hallway lamp to capture attention upon entry. The Brass Floor Lamp with White Feather Shade is reminiscent of a prima ballerina, combining elegance with a sense of drama. The contrast between its slender tripod legs and voluminous feather shade adds a layer of visual excitement, and the white feathers glow beautifully when lit.

Add a Quirky Touch with Neon Lights

Introduce a playful element to your hallway with a quirky neon light. Perfect for those moments when you’re hunting for keys, neon lights also inject personality into the space. Place one over the doorway or at the end of the hallway for a soft, welcoming glow.

The Gianna LED Neon Canvas Art is an eye-catching piece that brings joy and energy to your home. Its dynamic, hand-painted design in vibrant colours features 3D red neon sunglasses, creating a captivating glow. It’s an ideal choice for anyone who loves a mix of colour and kitsch, adding an exuberant vibe to any interior.

Create a Cosy Ambience with Candlelight

Few things can match the romantic glow of candlelight. Candles can create a warm and cosy atmosphere, perfect for any occasion. The King of the Lizards Candle Holder with four candle holders creates a stunning display in any hallway, its playful design is sure to bring a smile to everyone’s face.

Pair the soft flicker of a candle with a hallway lamp to invite guests in and place it in front of a small mirror to reflect the light. For safety, consider flameless LED candles, which provide all the visual appeal of real candles without the risk of a flickering flame or messy wax drips.

Reflect Light with Stylish Modern Mirrors

Mirrors are a fantastic way to create an illusion of space in a small hallway. Position mirrors strategically on walls or shelves to capture and reflect both natural and artificial light. Experiment with different angles and heights to make the most of your hallway’s light.

Where to Place Hallway Lights for Maximum Impact

For a long hallway, position ceiling lights at either end to emphasise the space’s length and naturally guide guests into the rest of your home. For a more classic look, consider a hall lantern, or choose a single hallway pendant light for a contemporary twist.

Layer your lighting to highlight focal points, such as console tables or artwork. If space is tight, wall lights can draw the eye upward, creating the illusion of higher ceilings. Remember, hallways serve a practical purpose, so include task lighting or brighter bulbs where necessary. There’s nothing worse than struggling to see in a dimly lit hallway.

Gateway to your Home

Your hallway is the gateway to your home, and the right lighting can make all the difference. Whether you’re working with a narrow, small, or dark space, there are plenty of modern hallway lighting ideas to suit every style and need. From hallway pendant lights and table lamps to quirky neon lights and elegant wall sconces, layering your lighting not only enhances functionality but also adds depth and character to the space. By carefully selecting and positioning your hallway lights, you can create a welcoming atmosphere that reflects your personality, adds a touch of luxury, and leaves a lasting impression on anyone who steps through your door.

We hope this has inspired you with plenty of sparkle to make your hallway truly shine.

Frame Size Matters

Frame size and glass size make a big difference to the overall effect you want to achieve. A larger piece of glass will obviously reflect more light and make a space feel larger, whereas a larger frame size will create more of a focal point and look more like a piece of artwork. So, think about what look you want to achieve, before choosing your mirror. Or, go for something like this Handmade Gold Aurora Wall Mirror, which somehow manages to expertly combine the two. With its large round mirrored section, it’s perfect for really maximising light and reflections, but the gorgeous detailing of the gold bobbles really draws your eye and creates a striking statement in a room.

Placement is Key

Deciding where to place your mirror in your living room is a key step. If placed carefully, adding mirrors is the quickest and easiest way to enhance the light in your living room and create an illusion of more space. Try and place them opposite a window to bounce the maximum amount of natural light around the room. Or if you are limited with natural light, try hanging one behind a lamp or light fixture to create a similar effect.

Also, think about what will be reflected in the mirror, when deciding where to hang it. If you have a window to your garden, reflecting that scene back inside will make your space feel open and airy, and give a feeling of bringing the outside in. Or if you don’t have a gorgeous garden to reflect on, what about a striking piece of artwork on the opposite wall.

Consider Shape & Style

Think about the shape and style of the mirror in relation to your own decor. So, for instance, more ornate frames can be great for a more classic style of décor, whereas round, simple wall mirrors are great for a contemporary and clean living room. Similarly, the material of the mirror is important in creating the style you want. Wooden mirrors are great for a more natural, earthy feel, whereas gold mirrors are great for adding that touch of luxury. That’s not to say you can’t go for a contrast though and create a statement by choosing a different style mirror to your current décor.

In terms of shape, square mirrors are great for adding structure and clean lines to your living room, whereas a round mirror will give a softer feel. If your living room has lots of straight lines, we personally think a round mirror makes a great contrast to this, as its curves will soften all the other straight lines around the room and provide a welcome contrast.

And most importantly, don’t be afraid to go big when it comes to your living room mirror. The larger the mirror, the more light and space you’ll reflect into your décor, so it’s worth splashing out and investing in a large mirror if you can.

Create a Focal Point

Mirrors are perfect for creating a focal point within a room, whether that be above a fireplace, above a console table, or behind an occasional chair, they immediately draw your gaze and make a space feel complete. Even the most simple of mirrors can create a striking focal point, like this Round Antique Brass Large Wall Mirror. It’s the perfect mirror for when you don’t want something too overpowering, but you still want a focal piece to finish off the aesthetics of the room. A mirror is also the perfect starting place to build on and add more decorative pieces around it, so choose your mirror and work from there to create your focal point in the room. Try adding candle holders or vases on either side of your fireplace mantle, to frame the mirror and enhance its visual appeal.

Mirrors as Art

By utilising more unusual, shaped wall mirrors, you can really start to play about with mirrors as forms of art, as the focus becomes less on the mirror and more on the frame. So choose frames that stand out and add visual interest, like this Square Sunburst Mirror, with its unique and radiant design, it would create a show-stopping display in any living room. Or how about this Dripping Gold Mirror, it looks like a modern art piece with its fabulous gold dripping effect, and because of its smaller size, it could easily be combined with other wall décor and artwork to create a striking display.

Statement Styling

Mirrors look amazing styled in pairs, this could be either side of a fireplace, or perhaps either side of a large piece of furniture. For this look, we think a mirror that is quite simple and elegant works well, so they don’t completely overshadow the rest of the room. This Gold Moroccan Wall Arch Mirror is absolutely perfect for this, with its iconic scalloped arch, it’s reminiscent of the majestic architecture of Morocco, and it is sure to add an understated elegance and tranquillity to your living room.

Or if you prefer a more maximalist look, why not consider styling multiple mirrors together and mixing them in with artwork and wall décor pieces to create a striking gallery wall. Small mirrors can be perfect for this, as they can be fitted in amongst some of your favourite pieces of art, like this Golden Perching Parrot Mirror.

Mirrors Aren’t Just for Walls

And finally, don’t just think of mirrors as wall mirrors, mirrored furniture is another great way to include their reflective powers. A drinks cabinet with mirrored doors for example, is a stunning way to incorporate the mirrored trend and create an airy and bright feel in your living room. Or how about mirrored side tables to bounce sunlight around the room, like these Faiza Mirrored Nest of Tables, with their mirrored glass teardrop panels in the sides, they will bounce a gorgeous array of colour and pattern around your living room.

So, as you can see, mirrors really are a designer’s best friend, as their power to immediately infuse a room with light, space and charisma, is unrivalled. So, embrace the magic of mirrors and watch your interiors come to life.

Your hallway is the first room you see when you come home from a long day at work, so we want to create a space that feels homely and inviting, so you feel a sense of calm as soon as you step in the door. Not only that, but a lot of your other rooms also often lead off your hallway, so you really need to consider this to create flow and make the rest of your decor pop.

What Furniture & Accessories Should be in a Hallway?

So first off, what furniture and accessories should be in a hallway? We think there are a few universal items that are a must in every hallway, to either improve the functionality of the space or are just essential for aesthetics.

Console Tables – perfect for decoration and storage

For us, no hallway is complete without a console table, as they check both boxes, functionality, and aesthetics. They are generally around the same height as a dining table but are quite often long and narrow, so they work perfectly in most hallways. Not only are console tables the perfect spot for putting keys and posts, but style them with a few of your favourite decorative accessories and a striking table lamp, and you’re already well on your way to creating a statement hallway!

Magnificent Mirrors – the perfect finishing touch

A large, statement wall mirror is also a must, as most hallways tend to be long and narrow, so we want to make them feel larger, and a mirror is perfect for this, to bounce light around the space and open it all up. And of course, a place to touch up your lipstick before you leave the house is always handy! This Round Gold Aurora Mirror is perfect, as it has a very large glass section, so it reflects the maximum amount of light, to really open a space up.

Lighting – a crucial role in setting the vibe

Next up is lighting, and as with lighting in any room in your home, it needs to be layered. So don’t just use one light source but use a combination of several to spread the light more evenly and give a cosy glow. If you are lucky enough to have high ceilings in your hallway, a statement pendant ceiling light is another way to detract from a long corridor-like hallway, as it draws the eye up, instead of just straight down the corridor.

This Sunburst Pendant Ceiling Light would be perfect to create a large focal point and give a feeling of glamour and opulence. Pair this with a table lamp on a console table near the door, for a gorgeous, layered lighting effect. Plus, if you put your table lamp on a timer, you never need to come home to a dark and uninviting house again!

Seating – a useful addition to any hallway

The final piece of furniture to improve the functionality of your hallway, (if you have the space), is a chair or bench, so you always have a spot for putting your shoes on. Here at Audenza, we just love the aesthetics of a velvet chair, as it immediately conveys a sense of luxury, elegance, and sophistication, which is perfect for creating a high-end look.

Create Flow

The next thing to consider when decorating your hallway is what sort of style to go for. For most of us, we don’t spend much time in our hallway, so it’s the perfect space to really experiment and be bold with colour and pattern.

But you do need to consider which of your other rooms lead off it and how the décor will flow from one to the other. So, if your other rooms are already very busy and colourful, you may want to consider keeping the hallway more subdued in a complementary colour, so you don’t overwhelm the space. Just always remember, that you want your hallway to serve as a beautiful connector between your rooms, so you want it to work in harmony with your other rooms, rather than fight and clash.

Make it Inviting

Your hallway is where guests get the first glimpse of your home, so you want to make it inviting and create a warm welcome. So, think about adding cosy touches like a soft rug, so you can sink your feet into it after a long day at work, or add a scented candle, so you immediately get a relaxing smell when you walk through the door.

Fresh flowers or house plants are another great way to give a homely feel, but hallways can often have a lack of natural light which can be trickier for house plants. So, why not go for faux plants instead, that way you don’t have to be limited by which house plants like darker rooms. This Faux Potted Trailing Spanish Moss would create a gorgeous tumbling mass of greenery to soften and enrich your living space.

The final touch is to inject your personality by adding your favourite artwork, or a gallery wall of family photographs, to tell your story and make the space uniquely yours. A hallway is the perfect place for a gallery wall, as you can include everything that’s important to you and holds memories for you, to create a comforting environment as soon as you come home.

Large Hallway Ideas

If you are one of the lucky ones with a large hallway, it can be intimidating knowing how to decorate it. What you don’t want to do is end up with all the furniture around the edge of the room. So why not add a statement round table to the centre of the room that can be styled with a gorgeous large vase, like this stunning Lemon Yellow Vase. Handcrafted and depicting life-size lemons, it’s a statuesque vase for a luscious Mediterranean vibe. A striking, central pendant light above it would really finish off the look.

Think Practically

Ultimately, your hallway must work from a functional standpoint, as is it one of the most used rooms in the house! So, think practically and add storage where you can. If you have a console table that is open at the bottom, why not add a couple of pretty storage baskets, so you have a spot for any essential items like hats and scarves. Or if you have space up high, use a shelf with a few storage baskets on instead.

Think of anything that ends up getting dumped in your hallway, and instead give it a designated home, so you can keep your hallway clutter-free. A magazine rack could be a good place to dump any posts or newspapers that haven’t been sorted yet, like this Side Table with Leopard Print Magazine Holder. It would be perfect for posts and papers, but you could also have a decorative bowl on top, for storing keys.

Narrow Hallway Furniture Ideas

The main thing to consider for narrow hallways is to draw the eye up, so you don’t feel like it’s just a long corridor. So, add a statement pendant light and a striking piece of wall art to draw the eye around. But also consider your furniture carefully, so if you have any nooks and crannies, add built-in storage to really maximise the use of the space for all your storage needs. But if you’re adding extra furniture, go for console tables that are open and airy, so the space doesn’t feel too cluttered, and if possible go for one with a mirrored glass top to reflect light around.

This Deco Fan Gold Console Table, fits the bill perfectly, with its delightful art deco-inspired design and a narrow depth for smaller spaces. The deco fan design is very open for a light and spacious feel that helps small spaces seem larger, and the mirrored top helps to reflect light.

So, there you have it, our top styling tips and hallway furniture ideas. We hope it’s given you lots of inspiration to create a statement hallway of your own.

Nothing screams Art Deco elegance more than your own home bar, and here at Audenza we just can’t get enough of them. When executed well, they are the perfect way to capture the elegance and glamour of the Jazz Age and incorporate it into your own home.

Not only do they serve up serious style, but they also make entertaining friends and family, a breeze, as you have everything to hand for the perfect party. So, whether you want to create the perfect solo night in, or host a bash for friends and family, follow these essential elements and home bar ideas for creating the perfect cocktail corner, and your house will soon be the hottest spot in town.

Location, Location, Location

First and foremost, you need to decide where you want to position your home bar. It should always be in a room you plan on doing the most entertaining, as you don’t want to be constantly walking backward and forward to make your guests another drink! So, whether that be your dining room, living room, or perhaps the kitchen if you have a nice open plan space, it doesn’t matter, so long as it’s convenient for you.

Work with the Space You Have

Now you might think if you have a smaller home, you don’t have room for a home bar, but we think you can always squeeze in a touch of luxury in any home, you just have to be clever about it. If a designated, fully built home bar is the fantasy, what are the other options for smaller homes?

Bar carts and drinks trolleys are perfect for small spaces, as they can slot into little, awkward dead spots in your home, and give that space a function and purpose. And, as they come in all shapes and sizes, you’re sure to find one that works for you.

This Black Metal and Rattan Drinks Trolley , for instance, is elegant and compact and brings a touch of drama to your glassware. Or, if you have slightly more space, this Gold Round Drinks Trolley with three shelves, provides plenty of storage and styling space.

That said you don’t have to just use a conventional drinks trolley, think outside the box with the space you have. For instance, a console table can work brilliantly as a home bar, like this Aziza Gold Console Table.

With its Moroccan-style zigzag design, mirrored glass top, and finished in shiny textured gold, this is the ultimate decadent addition to your home. The only thing to bear in mind with a console table is, that if they are one shelf on a flat level, you will need to work harder to create an interesting display. To keep the scene visually interesting, you need varying heights, so try grouping decorative drink bottles on a raised cake stand or placing a plant on a stack of decorative books to raise some items up.

Even a bookcase, or just a few shelves on your bookcase, can be the perfect styling spot for your home bar, why not gold leaf the back of the shelves to add some serious opulence?! Or, if you have some free wall space, use a couple of open shelves hung on a feature wall of dramatic wallpaper to create the feel of a home bar. You really don’t need much space to make something special!

Glorious Glassware for your Home Bar

Now you can’t have a home bar, without a glorious selection of glassware! Obviously, the type of glasses you choose, will depend on the kind of drinks you like to have, but make sure the glasses you choose are a thing of beauty in themselves. There’s no room for boring glassware here! If you’re a gin guzzler, these gorgeous Gold Rim Gin Glasses are sure to hit the spot. Or perhaps you’re mad for Martinis, then you won’t be able to resist these Pink Martini Gin Glasses. Whatever your tipple of choice, remember it always needs to be drank in style.

Don’t Forget Functionality

Obviously, you want your bar to be a thing of beauty, so, of course, you’ll want to add some gorgeous accessories, like your favourite plant or decorative items. But the key to a successful home bar is to have everything you need to make your fabulous cocktails. Think coasters, drink stirrers, ice buckets, decanters, and cocktail shakers. But again, all these items don’t need to be boring, and they can be styled on your home bar to make it look flawless. These Gold Octopus Drinks Stirrers would add a fun and quirky touch to any setting, or why not add a sexy rock ‘n’ roll vibe with these Beaded Hot Lips Coasters.

Another crucial element in any home bar is a serving tray. Trays make great styling tools, as you can group a selection of items on them to give them a focal point and make them look more intentionally placed. But also, a tray is a must for handing out drinks to all your thirsty guests! This Jazz Age Inspired Black and Gold Tray is just perfect for an Art Deco style home bar.

Add Some Decadence

A home bar is all about decadence, so to make your bar more interesting and stand out from the crowd, add some luxurious finishes like brass planters and velvet cocktail chairs. We love this Curvaceous Burnt Orange Armchair, for its stylish, clean simple lines, but with the additional twist of a ruched texture on the reverse of the chair for added pizazz.

Mirrored and glass surfaces are also great ways to enhance the space and add a touch of glamour. So, incorporate drinks trolleys with mirrored shelves, or add a statement mirror to the wall above. This Square Sunburst Mirror is absolutely perfect for capturing the essence of the Art Deco era and creating a show-stopping, attention-grabbing display. The round mirror bounces light around a room to create a feeling of space, whilst the square golden sunburst frame gives off a glamorous vibe.

And finally, no home bar is complete in our eyes without a touch of neon! And this Sequin Queen Neon Box Light has it all…it’s made from hot pink hand-blown glass neon, with a background of glistening sequins, doesn’t it just make you want to dance the night away.

We hope you enjoyed our round-up of essential elements for the perfect home bar, now invite those guests round and show off your flawless style!

Bedrooms Are a Sanctuary of Calmness

Nowadays, the bedroom has become a personal sanctuary of respite and relaxation. While the bed is the primary focus of any bedroom, secondary features like bedroom chairs help create a personal oasis. From unwinding after a long day at work to providing a space for reading before going to bed to having a nice cup of tea in the morning to rejuvenate yourself, the versatility of the bedroom chair is endless.

Where to Place a Chair in the bedroom?

Certain spots in the bedroom are naturally perfect for a lovely seating area—near a dresser, beside a vanity table or desk, or by the window. Positioning a chair opposite the bed or a few feet away can help define the space and establish clear boundaries within the bedroom. Placing your chair further from your bed helps to disconnect it from the sleep-related associations of the bed, making it feel like a distinct area to use within your bedroom.

How to Style a Bedroom Chair?

Don’t let a small bedroom deter you from adding a chair. Often, a chair can give the illusion of more space, cleverly utilising what might otherwise be unused areas. Decorating around a chair with books, plants, and a reading or table lamp can transform it into a cosy nook, which opens up the room rather than constricting it, unlike bulkier furniture pieces like cabinets or chests of drawers. Additionally, placing a mirror next to or above the chair can further enhance the sense of openness in the space.

Decorating a man’s bedroom can be a tricky one; too many colours and patterns and it can end up looking fussy, too plain, and simple and it can end up looking cold and clinical. It’s all about the balance of bold colours and artwork, mixed with statement furniture and clean lines. So, look at these men’s bedroom decor ideas, and see if you can create a stylish sanctuary.

Add a Feature Wall

Now, we know not everyone is a fan of a feature wall, but we personally think they’re great for when you want a focal point in a room, without making the room too busy or breaking your decor budget.

You could also consider simple wooden panelling, painted in a rich, dark hue, which will immediately add interest and depth to a room. Or if panelling is not your vibe, you could go for a striking wallpaper or mural instead. A simple, textural effect wallpaper would work brilliantly here and add some depth and warmth to the room, whilst keeping it bold and striking. A feature wall is also great for a small bedroom, all-over wallpaper can be imposing in an already small room, but having one standout wall will create a statement.

The plaster wall trend is particularly effective in men’s bedroom decor. The slightly distressed and unfinished appearance of plaster adds texture and intrigue in a subdued manner, unlike wallpaper. This style is ideal for creating a space that feels clean, minimalist, and modern, yet retains a rustic, industrial charm. You can even take on this style as a DIY project. Alternatively, to bypass any potential mishaps, numerous manufacturers now offer chalky, plaster-like paints that simplify achieving this textured effect.

Mix Materials

When you are creating a simpler style of decor with less colour and pattern, it is imperative to mix different materials to keep the room interesting. Think dark woods, with warm metallics, contrasted with hard concrete and soft leather. A mix of materials is what will bring this scheme to life. This Stalking Panther Table Lamp is the perfect example, with it is shiny gold base and matt black fabric shade, it’s perfect for adding that all-important mix of materials.

Choosing bold artwork that you love can help inject some of your personality into your home. For a man’s bedroom abstract art with geometric shapes or minimalist designs, can evoke a masculine vibe. This Gilded Noir Abstract Canvas Art would make a striking focal point in any bedroom. The metallic tones bring a sense of warmth and contrast perfectly with the moody, dark backdrop, and the clean design would work well with a variety of colour palettes.

Don’t be Afraid of Colour

What is the best colour for a man’s bedroom? A lot of men feel more comfortable with fairly neutral colours, but you can still make it bold and exciting by adding some deep, rich hues like navy blue, forest green, or even black. If you don’t want it to feel too dark, use these colours on a feature wall, and balance them out with a crisp white ceiling to reflect lots of light back into the room.

The great thing about navy blue, very dark green and black, is that they work similarly to a neutral, in that they are a great base to add some splashes of colour, like this Red Velvet and Rattan Armchair. With its bold lines, contrasting colours, and an array of textures, it is just perfect for a man’s bedroom. The warming orangey-red cushions and hand-assembled, wooden rattan panels provide a distinct contrast against the black frame, which is sprayed by hand for a luxe finish.

Styling Tip: When decorating with a muted or dark palette, it’s the little details that make a big difference. Consider adding a gentle curve to your bedside table, a subtle feathered edge on the headboard, or a luxuriously tufted rug. These small enhancements can bring vitality to neutral shades.

Choose Bold & Functional Furniture

For furniture choices, think bold and striking pieces, with strong geometric lines, but most importantly look for functionality. For a bedroom, you want a clutter-free space, so look for furniture with clever storage solutions, and prioritise functionality. This is especially true for small bedrooms, and you will want to incorporate as many clever storage solutions as possible, so you don’t overcrowd the space. For instance, you could go for a bed with built-in storage, or why not maximise vertical space with some statement shelving, and don’t forget to hang a few mirrors, to reflect light around the room and make it feel larger.

Add Monochrome into the Mix

For a timeless and failsafe colour combo that pairs beautifully with grey, always looks on trend in the classic black and white. This allows for an easy mix and match of patterns, prints, and solids, all while sharpening the look of neutral tones and adding more impact to a plain bedroom. Consider adding monochrome in elements like cushions, curtains, and artwork to create a more dynamic and appealing aesthetic.

Add Some Cosiness

Don’t be afraid to add some softer touches, like a cosy rug, or a soft, fluffy throw on the bed, as everyone wants their bedroom to be a warm and inviting space! It can also help balance out some of the strong lines and harsh materials that are often prevalent in a man’s interior décor scheme. This Petrol Geometric Rug has been hand tufted to create a deep pile, with a geometric cut design, that gives a fabulously warm texture underfoot, perfect for adding a touch of cosiness!

Bring the outside in

Biophilic design, which taps into the serene essence of nature, works wonders in the bedroom. Incorporating plants significantly transforms any space. Easy-to-care-for options like the fiddle leaf fig tree or some understated succulents are foolproof choices. If you are less confident in your gardening skills, consider realistic artificial plants instead.

Place them in stylish concrete planters, such as the Aslan Majestic Lion Planter to effortlessly breathe life into your room. Additionally, embracing green hues in your decor is currently fashionable, enhancing the room’s tranquillity. A deep, rich green is particularly suited for a man’s bedroom, offering a sophisticated and calming vibe.

So, there you have our top tips for decorating a man’s bedroom, I hope they provided you lots of inspiration! The strategies for decorating a man’s bedroom aren’t all that different from styling any other bedroom, and although dark paint colours and dark wood furniture have long been favoured in men’s bedroom decor, there are truly endless options for creating a space that suits individual tastes and preferences.
 

We have put together some tips to answer some of the questions we are most often asked about large and small dining room lighting ideas, such as – what lighting is best for over dining room ceiling lights and table lamps; how can I light my dining room without a chandelier; is warm or white light better for a dining room; and do you need a hanging light in a dining room?

We hope these dining room lighting ideas will give you the inspiration you need to create a dining room with some serious pizazz!

Layer It Up

The most important thing to remember about lighting is you need to layer it, one hanging pendant lamp is simply not enough. The number of different lights you need in a room will ultimately depend on how large your room is, but a good rule of thumb is to aim for at least three different light sources within a room. These should be a mixture of different types of lights, for instance, table lamps, wall lamps, or hanging lights, as this will give you a balanced glow of light all around the room.

Having multiple light sources makes a room flexible and versatile and becomes a conversational starter. We would recommend opting for a dramatic pendant as your main source of light and pair with bold statement table lamps and floor lamps to create an atmospheric mood. This is where you create character as well as feeling and the amount of light can be adjusted for various times of the day or year.

Our best-selling Gold Sunburst  Pendant Ceiling Light disperses a warm glow while acting as an artistic design piece with its sunburst design, offering a touch of glamour and opulence when poised above a dining table and a stunning alternative to a dining room chandelier. Hanging a single statement pendant light centrally over the dining table helps to create a point of focus, to draw the eye to the main area within the room – the table.

Floor lamps, like this Orelia Golden Parrot Floor Lamp,  are especially useful at lighting dark corners and can be placed behind an armchair to create the perfect, cosy little corner.

You may find a light that you just have to have, which could be the perfect starting point for your dining room scheme. Orelia Golden Parrot is a case in point. She brings a fun element to your interior decor, and a stunning hit of colour with a bright turquoise lampshade, a gorgeous and statuesque floor lamp that blends beautifully with antique pieces and modern furniture.

Do You Need a Hanging Light?

The next critical question you need to ask yourself is, do you want to incorporate a hanging ceiling light? A central hanging light is great for hanging over a dining table and adding a focal point to the centre of the room. But we must admit, most of us at Audenza prefer to use a combination of wall, floor, and table lamps, to create a more even spread of light around the room. So, if you do not have a hanging light in your dining room, fear not, as you can successfully light your dining room without one! If you will not be incorporating a main central light, think carefully about the types of table lamps you use, as you may want one that gives off more light.

For instance, this Antique Bronze Palm Leaf Table Lamp incorporates three bulbs within one light, and as it does not have a shade, it will give off a lot more light than some other table lamps.

We always recommend opting for striking designs with bold, sculptural forms or vibrant hues to create an eye-catching impact, even when the light is turned off. Envision your dining room lamps as pieces of art or serving as a design accent, the Stalking Panther Table Lamp which brings an element of the glamorous Art Deco era aligns with this vision perfectly.

Light up Different Levels

You want to create an even glow of light around your room, so think about adding light sources at different levels. Floor lamps and table lamps are the obvious place to start but think about the more unusual ways of adding light. For instance, this Lips Neon Acrylic Box Light is perfect for styling on a drinks trolley to add a pink glow to your room at a lower level.

Wall lights are great for adding light at a slightly higher level, but if you have already done all your electrics, opt for one that can just be plugged in, rather than wired in, like this Aurielle Golden Parrot Wall Light. Or if you have a small dining room and do not have space for both artwork and wall lights, why not combine the two? This Queen Marilyn Monroe LED Neon Artwork is the perfect small dining room lighting idea, as it combines the feature and focal point of a piece of artwork, with the atmosphere and glow of a wall light, what more could you want.

Floor lamps not only offer excellent ambient and task lighting but also contribute significantly to setting the atmosphere. By strategically placing floor lamps around your living space can evenly distribute light, banishing shadows from dark corners and infusing warmth. In the dining room, a stunning floor lamp can cast a flattering, intimate glow, perfect for those Friday night cocktails or social gatherings. Floor lamps also serve as effective pieces for accentuating specific features or zones within a room. Experiment with placing them in alcoves, alongside fireplaces, or beside seating areas to establish cosy, inviting nooks.

Dining table lights, on the other hand, excel at adding ambiance and generating a softness within a room. Having a selection of table lamps throughout the room fosters a homely atmosphere. These lamps also double as decorative accents, enriching your space with depth, colour, and visual interest.

When considering the ambiance created by lamps, do not overlook the significance of lampshades. Lampshades crafted from semi-translucent silk or linen diffuse light beautifully, emanating a warm, gentle glow. Conversely, opaque materials like velvet direct light upwards and downwards, producing a captivating pooling effect, ideal for accent lighting.

An Easily Way to Introduce Colour

The quickest and easiest way of adding some ‘oh la la’ to your home is by adding colourful dining room lights, lamps, and lampshades, you won’t need an electrician and it is a lot easier and quicker than changing your furniture and wallpaper. Swap your standard drum shade for a colour glass or funky patterned lampshade which will add a fun and decorative element to your decor. With so many gorgeous choices out there, it is easy to feel overwhelmed, but the general rule of thumb is to choose lamps and lampshades with at least one similar feature or colour thread in common, to help bring the look together.

Don’t Forget Candle Holders and Candles

Candlelight adds a touch of romance and warmth to any dining experience, making it an essential element of dining room decor. Invest in stylish candle holders in varying heights and styles to create a captivating centrepiece for your dining table. Mix and match different types of candles, from taper candles to tea lights, to add depth and dimension to your display, like these Bubble Candle Holders, that will help create visual interest. And if you have kids or are just worried about using real flames, then these LED Taper Dining Candle Sticks are the perfect solution! These LED candles mimic the flickering glow of real flames without the risk of fire or wax drips. Whether you are hosting a formal dinner party or enjoying a quiet meal with family, candlelight adds warmth and ambiance to your dining room, creating an inviting and memorable atmosphere that enhances the overall dining experience.

Warm White or Cool White

Our concluding thoughts on lighting your dining room, NEVER use cool white bulbs, we do not want our guests to think they are walking into the dentist’s waiting room! Whether you are enjoying a casual breakfast or hosting a formal dinner party, warm white bulbs set the perfect mood for any occasion in a dining room, creating a comfortable and inviting atmosphere that encourages relaxation and enjoyment.

We hope these dining room lighting ideas have given you the inspiration you need to create a fabulous room. By incorporating these dining room lighting ideas into your decor scheme, you can create a warm, inviting, and visually stunning space that is perfect for entertaining guests or enjoying intimate family dinners. Experiment with different lighting fixtures, placements, and bulb choices to find the perfect combination that suits your style and enhances the ambiance of your dining room. With the right lighting, you can transform your dining room into a haven of comfort and elegance that will be the envy of all who enter.

Happy styling!
