Looking for a creative way to illuminate the bedroom? If you don't want to use the traditional bedside lighting, then try the same style of lighting that works hard all day at your desk!
Long, flexible construction allows you to direct a spotlight onto that novel you're reading, and a wide range of silhouettes and materials suit any interior.
Remodelista demonstrates what an impact a matched pair of task lighting can be by the bed, while a subtle grey hue plays down the the oversized scale of an architect's lamp on My Paradissi.
Meanwhile, Cassandra Ellis' black task lamp contrasts with the soft sensibility of a vintage-inspired bedroom, and a brushed nickel finish nicely accents the grey paint spotted on The Style Files.
Finally, you can't go wrong with a clean, classic white lamp as part of a modern rustic mix like this one from Klikk.
Whatever bedside table lamp you choose, select a bulb with a lower wattage to cast a soft, sleep-inducing glow.
1. The raw industrial vibe of this bronze task lamp makes it perfect for urban and rustic settings alike.
2. Complement a modern interior with the strong lines of an architect's lamp.
3. A traditional bedroom is the perfect home for this handsome black and brass table lamp.
4. You can't go wrong with the simple sophistication of a pharmacy table lamp in polished nickel.
5. A gooseneck lamp with a space-aged shape in white sets a retro mood.
Sweet dreams!
