Longer days and lighter eves ahead, it's time to think about brighter, softer tones and textures not only for our decor but our lighting schemes too.

“It’s all about creating that magical atmosphere of little glowing pools of light dotted around the room.”
Creating an Atmosphere
Lighting is an integral component in any living space, setting the tone and creating pools of glow that highlight your surfaces and add a revitalised pop of intrigue to unloved corners. AA recommends at least 8 in any living space! That may sound a lot, but the subtle touch of magic that they add is game changing to the look and feel of your room.

Lighter Vibes
Have you booked your summer getaway? or do you get carried away drooling over faraway fincas? Smatter lamps around your pad that are made of natural materials and mid tone to lighter hues to harness those holiday vibes and introduce that same getaway feel to your home decor.
All about the Base
The perfect way to add in some extra texture. One of AA's essential layers in every home, you can't overdose on it and the more you add to your decor the more intriguing and stylish it becomes. Rough textures or smooth and glossy, the base adds another dimension, bouncing or absorbing the downward glow.
“These little glowing pockets of light create atmospheric, cosy, intimate spaces. As you enter a beautifully lit room you immediately get that feeling of squishy contentment”

“The biggest most game-changing trick I find is with
table lamps. Plop them all over, think kitchen counters, console tables, side tables & coffee tables even.”

Extra Glow & Show
Lighting candles and tea lights around your home adds another dimension, although rather subtle, it doesn't fail to give your room oodles of ambience, even better if the candle is scented too. AA is a huge fan of candles and intriguing candle holders that have an interesting and sculptural form. You can use them to add height to a mantle and a little extra style to your tablescapes, whether you choose to pop a candle in or not. It's another hard working decorative accessory that mimics a piece of sculpture that will in turn add an arty vibe. Win win.
