As the days grow shorter and the evenings grow longer, we’re finding ourselves spending more time indoors under the glow of our homes’ lighting. In the world of luxury interior design, lighting is so much more than a functional necessity. It’s an opportunity to set the mood, make a statement, and make a space truly feel like your own. From dramatic colors to elegant chandeliers, join us as we shine a light on some of our favorite projects featuring statement-making lighting.

Nature-Inspired

Nature-inspired pendants are the perfect way to bring a touch of the outdoors inside, and they’re right at home in coastal interior design. Take this Kiawah Island home, where two pendants adorned with oyster shells add a bit of flair to a fun craft room. 

Or the woven cane pendant in this Charleston breakfast nook, creating a focal point in a cozy space.

Create unexpected drama in a small space with an oversized coastal-inspired pendant, like the one in a Kiawah Island powder room.

Industrial Chic

We love how the industrial chic lighting brings a cool, modern edge to each of these otherwise calm and neutral dining rooms. Rustic dark metals, classic geometric shapes, and exposed bulbs work together to create a look that is simultaneously timeless and modern. Geometric shapes, like the globe-inspired pendant, are classic yet bold, while a sputnik style creates interest over a Kiawah Island dining table. 

And we couldn’t resist installing this exposed bulb piece as the perfect backdrop in this moody Kiawah dining room!

Whimsical & Dainty

For a softer, more classic look, dainty and whimsical lighting brings all the elegance and charm. Crystals, glass beads, and tassels all contribute to create a look that is both interesting and calming. Spice up a hallway with a fun chandelier, like this Arteriors piece.  

Or pair a beaded chandelier with soft-colored curtains for a look that is bespoke and inviting, like this dining room.

A Fortuny chandelier perfectly balances out all the creams and browns in this Kiawah Island living space.

Bold & Playful

Sometimes, lighting is designed to bring a little fun to a space- and these bold and playful fixtures certainly deliver! The modern, multi-tiered pendant in this Kiawah media room makes a statement while adding an unexpected pop of color, and we love the lighthearted quirkiness of the bedroom bauble chandelier. 

And for the ultimate showstopper, this massive blue and white glass fixture commands attention upon entry into this Fripp Island foyer. 

Whether you’re drawn to nature-inspired designs, edgy industrial pieces, or soft and whimsical details, never underestimate the way lighting truly transforms a space. For more statement lighting design inspiration, check out our portfolio!
