DESIGN TRENDS

Night Light The Night Light is an essential element to make any space harmonious and cozy. This light not only brings soft, beautiful illumination to an environment, but also lends efficiency and functionality to both residential and commercial projects. When installing the Night Light below a piece of furniture, a decorative piece, or a corner of the wall, the light source will be hidden, causing the light to diffuse throughout the room. The glow from the Night Light is both aesthetically pleasing and practical. When navigating a room or hallway in the dark, the gentle ambient light will direct you in safety and comfort, with no need to turn on a blinding overhead fixture. This is a very modern look that is increasingly popular in today’s projects. The energy-efficient trend has transformed the thought process behind interior spatial lighting design.

“The intention is not only to give rooms an extra touch of elegance, but also to help the residents move from place to place in the middle of the night without disturbing others or getting blinded by overhead or wall-mounted fixtures.”
