Anyone who has long craved more nature within their own four walls will especially appreciate this indoor trend: the so-called mushroom lamps are making our hearts beat faster right now. What makes these lights so special? Since the lampshade is round and reminiscent of a mushroom, the designers took inspiration from the forms of nature in the creation process. Natural shapes like this are pleasing to the eye and create a relaxed atmosphere.
Cork lamps aren’t necessarily a new trend—our grandparents kept them at home—but they’re a re-emerging hit with their retro appeal that recaptures dressers and desks.
Dust catcher or inner darling?
Practical-minded people who don’t like to have too many decorations around might curse desk lamps. Of course they can trap dust, but above all they bring light into the rooms and create a cozy atmosphere. Light is a warm thing that feels good and can also affect our mood.
Shape and color are ultimately purely a matter of taste. But #mushroomlamp proves it: Mushroom lamps are very popular right now. More than 23,000 posts can be found on Instagram. It doesn’t matter if proximity to nature in terms of shape is a permanent trend or a temporary phenomenon – small decorative lights look absolutely fantastic.
Tinted Murano glass
Especially popular are those made of Italian Murano glass. But they also create a beautiful figure in other materials. With a colorful design, they look upbeat and bring a breath of fresh air to rooms that are normally furnished in soft colours. With a light pattern, cork lamps become a special eye-catcher – after all, what you choose for a model is always in the eye of the beholder.
