Find the Perfect Lampshade for Your Living Room
Consider the size, shape, material, and texture to find the perfect lampshade for your living room.
Why Lampshades Matter in Interior Design
Lampshades can play a significant role in interior design as they can influence the overall ambiance of a room.
One of their primary purposes is to soften and diffuse light, allowing them to create a warm glow that makes your space feel cozy and welcoming.
Additionally, depending on the type of lampshade you choose, it can add character and a certain feeling to your overall decor. It can also serve as a focal point or accent that reflects your style.
Choosing the Right Size and Shape
When choosing the right lampshade size and shape, consider whether it complements and enhances your living room decor.
Fortunately, we offer living room lampshades in various shapes and sizes to suit your needs and preferences.
Materials and Textures for Every Style
Additional factors to consider are the lampshade's material and texture, which can significantly affect the overall feel of your living room.
Choosing the right fabric can help create the desired atmosphere, whether you prefer burlap's rustic charm, silk's elegance, or paper's minimal profile.
Types of Lampshades for Your Living Room
When choosing a lampshade for your living room, there are three types of lampshades that may lend themselves best:
Drum Lampshades
Drum lamp shades are a popular choice for many modern interiors. Thanks to their clean lines and cylindrical shape, drum lampshades can create a contemporary look that pairs well with various lamp bases. Given their shape, with wide openings at both the top and bottom, they also let out a substantial amount of light, making them suitable for larger spaces.
Available in an array of colors and fabrics, this type of lampshade allows for great flexibility in terms of design.
Empire Lampshades
If you want a more traditional feel in your living room, consider one of our empire lamp shades. Their tapered shape and classic design can work beautifully in a variety of casual settings.
While they aren’t quite as open as drum shades, they still have relatively wide openings at both the top and bottom of the shade, allowing for ample light to shine through and making them conducive for larger spaces just like their drum counterparts.
Bell Lampshades
Bell lamp shades are ideal for people trying to achieve a more vintage or classic aesthetic.
Their gently flared shape and soft curves create a graceful silhouette. While they are often not as open at the top compared with the empire and drum lampshades, the flare at the bottom provides adequate light to come through.
These shades typically pair well with a range of lamp bases and can add a touch of charm to your living room.
Match Your Lampshade with Your Living Room Decor
To ensure that your new living room lampshade complements your decor, there are a few key considerations to keep in mind:
Complementing Your Living Room’s Color Palette
Our living room collection includes lampshades in a variety of colors and designs. This allows you to choose a shade you love and one that can enhance your living room’s color scheme.
Whether you prefer neutral tones for a subtle touch or a bold shade for contrast, the right color can effortlessly tie the room together.
Pairing Lampshades With Different Lamp Bases
The lampshade you choose should also complement the base of your lamp. A sleek drum shade can be paired beautifully with a modern metal base, while a bell or empire shade can enhance the elegance of a traditional ceramic or wooden base.
Layering Lighting for a Cozy Atmosphere
Layering your lighting with multiple lampshades can create depth and warmth in your living room. Combining table lamps, standing lamps, and overhead lights with complementary shades can help diffuse light evenly and set a welcoming and cozy mood.
