Soft shapes with the Cozy Lights
What are soft shapes? They are generally understood to be round, curved and natural shapes . Shapes that are comfortable and make you feel good. But why is this actually so important? Like cozy lights, they are part of our everyday lives and have an effect on our subconscious.
Everything we perceive has a shape. So do the pieces of furniture in our four walls that we see every day. In order to feel comfortable, the individual components should fit together. In other words, an elongated or several pendant lights often fit well above a large dining table. In the living room, a discreet ceiling light, perhaps a s.luce ring?
Warm colors
Once you have decided on a shape, you come to the next important question: what color? The answer is very simple in fall. Warm colors. Like Wine red, fir green, midnight blue.
Lighter colors, such as beige, cream or grey, are of course also allowed to combine. It should be calm and harmonizing. Tone-on-tone looks are very popular for the Cozy Lights.
But the most important thing is that you feel comfortable. In modern lamps, however, the colors mentioned above are rarely used. Dark tones such as black or anthracite or calm designs in gold or copper are the most popular. The radiating Cozy Light is in warm white is best in the Cozy Living period.
Where do you place your Cozy Lights?

In which direction should the light shine? The light source of a floor lamp should point towards the wall so that the light is reflected by it and does not appear obtrusive or excessively bright.
As a pendant lamp or pendant light, the s.luce ring can be used directly or indirectly is recommended. Because when the Cozy Living period comes to an end, you can remount the lamp and turn it from indirect to direct light. We recommend that you consult an electrician for this.
Indirect light with LED strips
