It would seem, how difficult is the choice of various attributes in the bedroom? For example, choosing a bedside lamp. A small lamp designed to light up the bed a little at night. However, she is capable of so much! Properly matched to the interior of the bedroom, a bedside lamp can not only illuminate the space, but also gracefully decorate, and also deftly separate the bedside space from the space of the whole room.
Types of bedside lamps
In order to illuminate the entire bed or just its headboard, there are many types of lamps. Of these, most often distinguished:
- hanging (chandeliers, spotlights);
- modular designs;
- wall (sconces), and
- bedside floor lamps and mini lamps.
Hanging structures made of fixed or modular lamps can be quite bulky and difficult to install. This solution is suitable for the initial repair and decoration of the bedroom. Bedside floor lamps and mini-lamps located on the bedside table, despite the ease of connection and mobility, cannot always illuminate the head of the bed directly.
They will create only a slight twilight, and, therefore, reading before going to bed will be impossible. In this regard, wall sconces located locally above the headboard remain the best solution today. They can provide spot lighting without causing eye strain. It is best to install sconces in pairs, that is, equidistant over two beds. This will allow everyone to use the light at their discretion, without interfering with the sleep of the spouse.
Graceful sconce
The wall sconce for the bedroom not only perfectly performs the function of lighting the head of the bed, but also brings a certain touch to the interior design. Depending on the model of the sconce, it can perfectly emphasize both a modern loft style with a wooden or metal headboard, or add coziness to a classic design with soft upholstery or a beautiful wrought iron pattern.
How to choose a sconce for the bedroom
Wall sconces have one thing in common - they are all installed above the head of the bed using a bracket. Otherwise, they are completely different. The difference between sconces is not only the style and design in which they are made, but also their size and layout. For example, for a loft style, it is better to install several (5-6) lamps - sconces located along the entire length of the headboard.In turn, for the classic "soft" style, only 2 medium-sized sconces are suitable.
The next step in choosing a wall sconce is to determine the shape and design of the lampshade. It can be as an even classical form, tightly adhering to the wall, or it can be an unusual, elegant form of a flower, glass or ball, located a short distance from the wall itself. Wall bedside lamps are a great solution for those who want to emphasize the design of the bedroom and at the same time have good headboard lighting even at night.
