Effective lighting is often the difference between a drab, dingy space and a space that truly shines. Fritz Fryer is a specialist lighting company offering a unique range of bespoke lighting designs to suit any space, whether in a home or in a commercial building. The team’s sought-after designs mainly draw inspiration from the dazzling antique and vintage light fittings and chandeliers that they have restored since the 1980s.
Tips for making bespoke lighting work for you
The team at Fritz Fryer have decades of experience in designing, making, restoring and selling bespoke lighting products, both contemporary and antique. Their top 3 tips for using bespoke lighting to create the perfect space are:
- Think about the ambiance you wish to achieve
- You can create the perfect atmosphere in your space by paying attention to details like the finish on your lighting (Fritz Fryer has 4 different finishing styles – polished brass, antique brass, nickel and bronze – to suit whichever vibe you’re going for).
- Experimenting with colour temperature using LED bulbs can also have a huge effect on the ambience of a space.
- Familiarise yourself with different types of bespoke lighting to find your perfect style
- Different people have different tastes when it comes to lighting, and it’s important that you know your likes and dislikes.
- Do you love cluster chandeliers? How do you feel about staggered pendants? Maybe you’re more of a lantern bar kind of person? Think about which lighting style matches your personality, design aesthetic and furnishings.
- Consider where to place your custom-made lights for the greatest effect
- Do you want a drop pendant over your kitchen island? A cluster chandelier over your coffee table? A dome table lamp by your bed?
- The location of your bespoke lights can have a big impact on the way your rooms look and feel, as well as influencing how you use the space.
