Looking for a quick way to transform your new apartment or townhome into an inviting space you can call home? One word: lighting. Lighting may seem like a natural addition to a room, but more often than not, it is overlooked as a splurge or a non-essential item in a new home. Sure, recessed lights and built-in vanity sconces might work in a pinch, but taking your space from builder-grade to dream design involves a little more finesse. Designers who shop our site flock to brands like Worlds Away, Currey and Company and Jamie Young for their vast catalogues of quality lighting. These incredible vendors feature classic designs and materials like brass and nickel pendants and marble-accented floor lamps, as well as chic chandeliers and table lamps made from unexpected materials including natural khaki-finished rattan and buffalo horn. Don't limit your design dreams to what you can simply plug into the wall yourself. In under an hour, a licensed electrician can install a set of pendants above your kitchen island or hang a chandelier in a breakfast nook. Trust us: you'll be so happy you did!
