Statement lighting that makes an impact on any space

Our top lighting picks for instant ambience

Lighting may seem like a simple detail, but it’s far more than a tool for illumination. The right lighting shapes a room’s atmosphere, setting the tone and adding a layer of personality that draws people in. Whether it’s a soft glow or a striking, architectural fixture, impactful lighting has a way of transforming spaces into memorable environments.

With that in mind, we’ve curated a list of standout lighting pieces that bring together style, innovation and practicality. Here are our top choices.

01. ‘Pebbles’ pendant lamp by Boris Kilmek for Bomma

Inspired by natural stone formations, this pendant lamp brings a warm, calming glow to interiors. Designed by Boris Klimek for Bomma, each piece is individually made from hand-blown glass, giving it an organic shape. Available through Anker & Co, the pendants can be clustered in various arrangements, adding a sculptural touch that we find enhances any room with soft, ambient light.

02. ‘Gurunsi’ ceiling lamp by Pet Lamp

This ceiling lamp carries a story rooted in craftsmanship and sustainability. Handmade by artisans from the Gurunsi community in Ghana, it combines recycled PET bottles and local elephant grass, woven with traditional techniques. The result is a practical and artistic light with textures that reflect a cultural heritage. The intricate patterns offer a sculptural and functional lighting option available in different configurations. We adore how the playful flowy and cloud-like design floats overhead. ’Gurunsi’ is available through Dahl Agenturerand comes in both round and linear forms.

03. ’Lederam’ ceiling lamps by Enzo Catellani for Catellani & Smith

Inspired by the precise movements of drawing, these ceiling lamps by Enzo Catellani bring a sleek and artistic presence to a space. Each lamp features slim, curved aluminium discs that seemingly float effortlessly, casting a soft, ambient glow. We find their understated elegance adds a quiet sophistication. Arranged in clusters, the discs become sculptural and turn into a feature. Available through Anker & Co, they’re a versatile choice for adding both light and beauty to interiors.

04. ‘Cirio’ chandelier by Antoni Arola for Santa & Cole

We love and often use the ’Cirio’ chandelier by Antoni Arola for Santa & Cole. It is a versatile and eye-catching piece with a design inspired by traditional mosque lighting. Available through Dahl Agenturer in various configurations, the ’Cirio’ creates an eye-catching focal point while emitting a warm, ambient glow suited for both residential and public spaces. It epitomises a balance of elegant design and functional versatility.

05. ‘Across’ suspended lamp by Pio & Tito Toso for Luceplan

The ‘Across’ suspended lamp by Pio & Tito Toso for Luceplan brings a bold, graphic touch to any space. Designed with three interconnected axes in two distinct lengths, this fixture offers a striking linear composition that can be adapted to various layouts. It’s our go-to when we need a lighting solution that doubles as a design statement, adding dynamic energy and enhancing the overall atmosphere with its clean, modern lines.
