Lighting is, of course, a practical component of any home, but it's also a way to really express your personality and solidify your design style. If you're wondering what types of lighting trends we can expect to see making a splash in 2023, you'll want to read on for insight from the pros. Whether you're in the market for a new chandelier or are just looking to add visual interest with some table lamps, there are plenty of new looks that we can expect to see reign supreme.
Over-Scaled Chandeliers
Chandeliers are already known for making a major impact in any space, but why not really add some visual interest to a room by going extra big? "We love the dramatic impact that an over-scaled, multi-tiered chandelier makes, especially in the work of lighting designer Lindsey Adelman," Jason Bell, of Blackberry Farm Design, says. "The popularity of these huge pieces has really grown, even for use in smaller spaces, and we think that this trend will continue well past 2023."

Kate Davidson, of Kate + Co, agrees that oversized lighting as a whole will reign supreme next year. "Bigger is most often better— we encourage oversized lighting in most spaces," she notes.
Plaster Lighting
Plaster lighting will be everywhere next year, says lighting designer Julie Neill. “It’s a natural material and its chalky white color is clean and fresh," Neill comments. And plaster pieces look wonderful in a range of spaces, she adds. "It can be applied to both traditional and more modern frames, so the look can be versatile. Light fixtures made of plaster are at home in a variety of spaces, from formal living rooms to outdoor porches."
Layered Lighting
"In 2023, we will be seeing more layering of lights in interior spaces that offer more daily function and can create different moods within our interiors," Amanda Shields, of Amanda Shields Interiors, says.
Particularly, this will be the case in the bathroom, where we will see "more layers of different lighting throughout along with adding in back-lit mirrors," she adds.

Pendant Lighting
We will see more pendant lighting next year and in new places, such as above the dining table— not just over the kitchen island— says Hannah Rasa of InSite Builders & Remodeling. A few styles, in particular, will be having a moment.
"Glass pendants are popular for their translucence, airiness, and ability to coordinate with any style from contemporary to farmhouse," Rasa explains. "Statement pendants in a variety of colors, shapes, and textures provide an overall impact, mainly by integrating finish accents and decor."
Multiple Types of Lighting in a Space
If you love to mix and match lamps with pendants and more, you're in luck. "Designing a space with a variety of styles and heights of light sources is now on trend," says Sydney Marcus of Anthony Wilder Design/Build.
"A collection of lighting solutions—mixing floor lamps with table lamps, recessed lights, and sconces—in a space can bring an added dimension."

Special Table Lamps
Table lamps in particular are having a moment. "Statement lighting with can be achieved through custom lamps," Marcus adds. "In a recent project, we used custom-painted lamps and they became the jewels of the space." This news is great for renters, too, who may not be able to alter overhead fixtures as easily but can have plenty of fun with more portable pieces.
Outdoor Lighting
Think beyond your home's interior when it comes to lighting in the new year. "Outdoor lighting is going to start making a big statement in 2023," Linda Hayslett, of LH.Designs, says. "People will be wanting to create a mood outside with multiple hanging lights that will make a space feel magical and more interesting."
Rattan and Rope Lighting
Love rattan? You're not alone! "People have been gravitating towards more natural materials," Hayslett notes.
"We'll see more lighting that reflects a more of a neutral, modern, boho style feel with materials like rattan, rope, cane, and wicker in bathrooms and kitchens with pendant lights and sconces."
Charles Pavarini III, of Pavarini Design, agrees. Natural materials such as ceramics, rattan, and blown glass reflect a more casual aesthetic with a departure from formality. "These elements—which are part of the popular Coastal Grandmother aesthetic, too—are going to remain in vogue in 2023."
Desiree Burns Interiors
LED Lighting
Many designers cite LED lighting as something we will see more of in 2023. "Indirect lighting sources with integral LEDs are finally taking hold," Pavarini says. "Gone is the allure of the visible Edison bulb and glowing filaments."
Zulma Puhl of TriVistaUSA echoes his sentiments, noting, "The lighting trend I see for 2023 is the continued use of LED lighting, not only because it continues to be energy efficient, but also because it gives designers the flexibility to creatively design a space.

Chandeliers and Lamps 2023 | TOP-20 Best (55 photos)
The right choice of chandelier can transform your home, turn it into a romantic old castle or a cozy romantic corner. For example, a crystal chandelier will make your living room rich and chic, and a well-chosen floor lamp will change the whole style of the room in one direction or another. However, I would like to choose not only lighting fixtures that are appropriate for the chosen style of interior, but also very beautiful, corresponding to the realities of our time. Fashionable chandeliers of 2023 (photos of which are presented in the article) will be an excellent help for making the right choice, and the advice of experienced designers is to determine the best preferences in favor of the ideal interior design of a house or apartment.
Chandeliers in the house - fashion trends of 2023
One chandelier in a large room, even if it is very beautiful, is no longer yesterday, and not even the day before yesterday, these days are long gone. Due to the fact that today the zoning of residential premises is more relevant than ever, lighting helps to divide the available space into parts.
In particular, all kinds of sconces and floor lamps are in trend, they are selected in accordance with the general style of the interior, but the combination of simple glass and metal is especially popular.
Tip! If you have one very spacious room, it is best to hang two identical stylish chandeliers on the ceiling. This will ensure full illumination and at the same time maintain a stylish look of the room.

Perfect organization of lighting in a large room
Design trends for chandeliers and lamps in 2023 include the use of geometry in their decor. This trend was also observed a year earlier, but this year a separate emphasis has been placed on it. This should be taken into account, especially if the wallpaper has a geometric ornament.
Choosing the right chandelier for your interior is always very important.
The most notorious novelties in the lighting industry are hexagonal lamps, vaguely reminiscent of a honeycomb. Polygons made of colored, transparent or white frosted glass and decorative plastic (metal) are fixed on the ceiling or wall in the very center. Frosted glass will give the structure softness due to diffused light.
Stylish wall arrangement with hexagonal lamps
Horizontal chandeliers are in trend. They strongly pressed lamps with traditional vertical lighting. Horizontal chandeliers have simple, clean lines, and large projecting shades. The direction of the light flux they have is very diverse, it is good if it can be changed periodically.
You can create a trendy interior design by focusing some kind of mosaic on the ceiling. To implement this idea, you can pick up flat lamps. It is good if the mosaic is of the same geometric shape. Fixtures can be placed on the ceiling in accordance with a strict order, or randomly.
Decorative lighting
Separately, I would like to mention the use of light forms as decorative elements. Sconces designed for artistic illumination of interior details are very relevant. They themselves may well be barely noticeable, but if there are several of them, and they successfully attract attention to paintings and other objects of arts and crafts, then the effect will be wonderful.
Original chandelier with an interesting geometric shape in the form of cubes
In the event that your room, especially in the living room, has very low ceilings, it is good to place such small lamps strictly around the perimeter. Thus, they visually stretch the entire room, it will visually appear much higher.

Chandeliers, sconces, various table lamps and floor lamps made of colored glass can be very elegant in their execution. They are able to create original soft lighting, and emphasize the chosen style of the interior.

Sculptural elements in the design of chandeliers are also in trend today. The forms of such lamps can be different: abstract clouds and bubbles or full-fledged artistic images.
Such decorative elements in lighting fittings give the dwelling a "zest", a pronounced individuality. A particularly fashionable solution is figures made of white frosted glass, which is the center of attention of the lamp.

In addition, wood and beaded lamps are in fashion today. Beaded chandeliers always look a little out of the ordinary in a room, but lighting fixtures made from wooden beads that show the grain of the wood are now especially popular.
How to choose the right color
Color design is one of the most important elements in creating a competent interior design. In a room, he can make the dwelling colder or warmer, larger or smaller. Beige and cream, as well as ivory and ecru color, coffee color and chocolate color - such a palette of colors is, in principle, noble, appropriate in many styles, but it is especially good in the classics.
Tip! Lighting fittings should always be in a strong alliance with accessories in color, then it will be more appropriate.
Trendy lamps 2023 of the new collection
Bright lamps with contrasting colors
Not so long ago, fashion lamps 2023 in black appeared, they were offered by the most fashionable interior designers. Today they are in trend and are considered trendy. Such original options are best used when there are other light sources in the room. Black lamps or a chandelier will fit perfectly into a loft or minimalism.
Note! Matte sconces and chandeliers in graphite shades are especially good, they create a fashionable space around themselves and fit into many modern interior styles.

Lavender, pink, blue, mint shades are still considered the most beautiful and noble in vintage styles. Crystal chandeliers never lose their value, they look good in any color options, this is one of the reasons why they are not considered hopelessly backward, however, they look most beautiful against a background of white and black.
Trendy chandeliers 2023 – what to look for
When choosing the right chandelier, consider the style of the room. Moreover, nowadays there are no problems with the assortment of chandeliers in stores: you can find everything from a chic classic large chandelier to spotlights and a cute garden lantern.

Design tricks turn even a simple lighting fixture into a decorative piece of furniture. And it will fit almost any style, you can't go wrong.
Transparent pendants are very fashionable this season. They are a perfect combination of rural and industrial design. Add an element of your own creativity to this trendy mix by hanging three identical lamps at once, but at different heights.

A creative idea for a wall lamp
Handmade lighting items always look very interesting space. If your room has a low ceiling, you should not buy long hanging chandeliers, and vice versa, if the ceilings are high, you should not choose "plates" adjacent to the ceiling.

If your room is decorated in the English style, neoclassical, then again, you should pay attention to the crystal chandeliers mentioned above.
If you decide to surround yourself with the atmosphere of a real noble castle, using chandeliers with forged elements in your design is one of the best options for solving this issue.
Hi-tech and minimalism
- For the style of minimalism, in addition to the above, trendy chandeliers 2023 in the form of several spherical lamps, but suspended side by side and at different levels, are perfect.
- When choosing lighting fixtures for a high-tech room, one must remember that the correct lighting design of a living space is only one side of the issue. When creating this or that lighting concept, it is necessary to understand that in its design it must correspond to the nature of this style.
Important! Lamps in high-tech style are not only modern and concise, this direction also involves the use of various modern materials, mostly of an innovative nature.
Interior design with soft and pleasant lighting
High-tech chandeliers and lamps should be concise in form, discreet and even strict colors, made of innovative modern materials. In this case, metal and chrome, hanging elements, a new design are appropriate.
Note! Well-known world brands at the moment also offer chandeliers that are made in the form of cones or parallelepipeds. A similar theme is also appropriate in high-tech style, especially if it is glass and shiny metal.
Eco style and country
The use of natural materials in interior design continues to expand. This trend is also relevant in the manufacture of lamps.
A perfect idea for a table lamp
A table lamp that can be placed in any position
This year, apparently, new, bold solutions will be offered. In the trend of the season, a mixture of several materials in one product. For example: a decorative ceiling made of natural fabric is attached to a metal chain. It can be not only rattan, which has traditionally been used earlier for the manufacture of lighting fixtures, but also twine, ordinary burlap.
Beautiful classic floor lamp on a wooden leg
Strict adherence to style is no longer as relevant as before, which means that a chandelier, sconce or floor lamp made of coarse fabric can get along in minimalism, and even more so in a loft.
