The Power of Textured Lighting in Interior Design

A lot of us will think of the physical look and feel of fabrics and other materials when we hear the word texture. 

However, in lighting design, texture also refers to the way in which light is used to create visual interesting surfaces and depth in a material, especially in decorative lighting fixtures. Texture can interact with the light itself in many different ways to create special light effects when lid." Said Simone.  

"Texture can have a very fine structure like a brushed surface finish, or it can have a bigger structure and then it becomes like a pattern. You can express different aesthetic styles with texture, such as natural, luxury or modern depending on the qualities of the texture.” 

In Mathijs’s opinion, texture in lighting design offers the possibility to change the way lights travels through the luminaires. "For example, we designed this crushed glass texture using our 3D printing technology; the light shines through the irregular lines and creates gentle sparkles through the texture, which is perfect for adding a cozy ambiance to your interior." 

We have several textures which are designed to fit different interior styles. For example if you have a Scandinavian or natural interior the open weave and the natural line texture would work very well. By contrast if you have an industrial styled interior the crushed glass texture on the Lusenna pendants complete the urban atmosphere.
