We spend more than 50% of our time at our homes in artificial lighting. So, it is important to understand how you like to live and entertain groups of people and select lighting that reflects that lifestyle. Decorative fixtures can be used for technical or ambient purposes giving out clients that flexibility.
Sustainability in lighting is being addressed through energy-efficient technologies, such as integrated LEDs, and the use of durable, recyclable, or responsibly sourced materials. Many brands are focusing on longevity—designing pieces that are timeless and built to last, thereby reducing consumption. BROKIS emphasizes sustainable practices in its production chain—highlighting material innovation, glass-as-art, and craftsmanship. For example, many of its fixtures feature recycled glass materials.
Each space deserves a distinct lighting mood.
- Living areas benefit from statement floor lamps or dramatic ceiling pieces that become focal points.
- Bedrooms need softer, layered lighting—think bedside wall sconces or table lamps with diffusers.
- Dining spaces call for warmth—brass or ceramic chandeliers that cast a welcoming glow.
- Entryways and corridors are perfect for showcasing sculptural wall lights.
Lighting is emotional—it should evolve with the space and the people in it.
Technology is becoming seamless in modern lighting. The integration of smart LEDs, tunable white (adjustable colour temperature), and dimmable controls has made it easier to personalize ambiance for different times of day or moods. Lighting is increasingly designed to support human-centric experiences, with circadian-friendly settings that align with natural rhythms and well-being. Statement lighting doesn’t always have to shout. Sometimes, the most powerful designs whisper. They quietly elevate a space, touch people emotionally, and stay with them long after they’ve left the room. Lighting that lingers.
