Hallways are stepping out of the shadows as homeowners use statement glass lighting to create a stylish first impression.
According to the experts at British Lighting brand Glow Lighting, hallways are no longer being treated as purely practical pass-through spaces. Instead, homeowners are utilising beautiful lighting to set the tone from the moment someone walks through the door.
Emily Butterill, Founder and Creative Director of Glow Lighting, said: “Hallway lighting is far more than a practical necessity. Homeowners are increasingly seeing it as an opportunity to make a strong first impression and bring personality into a space that can often be overlooked.
“A statement light fixture will completely change the feel of a hallway, adding drama, warmth and a glimpse of what is to come throughout the rest of the home.
“It is a simple way to elevate the entrance to the home and turn a transitional area into a space with real impact.”
Glow Lighting’s handblown glass chandeliers, which feature three or five beautiful pendants hung in clusters, have been created to brighten dark corners and create a welcoming atmosphere. Designed with hallway spaces in mind, these stunning pieces add character and visual interest without taking up precious floor space in this hardworking area.
Each pendant is handblown in Yorkshire by Glow Lighting’s artisan craftspeople, and is available in clear or coloured glass, as well as a range of textured finishes.
Fixtures can be further customised by choosing from four metallic finishes and coloured cables.
Emily said: “Clear glass can help keep a hallway feeling bright and airy, while coloured glass introduces a more expressive element and can add depth, mood and character.
“The texture of the glass can have a surprisingly big impact on how a hallway looks and feels, and adds another layer of detail. It is not just about the light itself, but the atmosphere it creates and the way it helps turn a practical entrance into a much more considered part of the home.”
Glow Lighting’s range of chandelier lights are available now, with prices starting at £540.
