An ancient Greek philosopher once said: “Everything flows, everything changes”. The world of lighting design is no exception. It is reacting to the changes in society – the desire for comfort, freedom, multidimensionality, and functionality. These trends are reflected in the lighting fixtures created by the world’s best designers in 2020.
Lighting Trends 2020
Speaking of modern lighting fixtures, there are a number of trends that are clearly visible today.
Minimalism
This is the main trend in the world of lighting design. A person seeks to get rid of unnecessary things and focus on the main ones. Following these aspirations, the designers create luminaires of strict shapes, wide functionality, and stylistic brightness.
Natural materials
Wood, ceramics, glass, and even paper – eco-style is more popular than ever, and lighting designers understand this well.
Matte coating
There is no need to talk about a complete replacement of gloss, and yet the most popular are matte textures. The restraint, muteness, even delicacy, characteristic of such a lamps’ decoration are in demand among consumers.
Geometry plus the freedom of shape
The fondness for lamps in the geometric shapes, noted last year, continues. These devices look very stylish and can neatly decorate any interior. In addition, the laconicism and simplicity of geometric lines are ideally combined with minimalism.
Black color
Yes, it was black that became the trend in 2020. And one has only to look at the lamps in this seemingly uncharacteristic color to see how stylish they look.
Among the main trends in lighting design of the current year are brass products, retrospective lighting, track lighting, and a number of others. Let’s see how famous lighting designers have embodied these ideas in specific models.
