Modern Staircase Lighting
Choose Modern Stair Lights for a Contemporary Design
Step or stair lights illuminate your staircase, providing visibility and enhancing safety for both indoor and outdoor spaces. A step light or overhead light does more than ensure safety, it provides a sophisticated focal point for a specialized space.
A beautiful staircase is key to the architecture of your home. It is crafted for both function and style. Illumination of your staircase should ensure safety, lighting every step. Step lights and staircase lighting should also serve to highlight the architectural features of the staircase. Use shading to showcase the beauty, shape, and elegance of your stairway, turning it into an interior focal point.
This is also true of light sources that illuminate stairs in outdoor spaces as well. These stairs often function as stylish additions to a garden path or deck. Subtly highlighting specific shapes or features can enhance the ambiance, creating a warm feeling outdoors, especially at night. Dinner parties will feel more chic, and your decor will be more attractive when you create integrated illumination in your outdoor space.
Frequently Asked Questions about Modern Staircase Lighting
Choosing the right kind of lighting for the design of your staircase is important for safety as well as aesthetics. Here are some things to consider when choosing modern stair lights both indoors and outdoors.
- Lighting Type: Determine what type of lighting you need for a specific space. Is it a place where you need bright light, or would a warmer, ambient light be preferred? Make sure to find the right type of step light or other light sources for those specific needs. You may also choose LED lighting over traditional light sources because of the improved energy consumption. If going the energy-efficient route is important to you, keep in mind that you can still choose from brighter LED stair lights or ones with warmer shades.
- Shape: The shape of your stairs, as well as the shape of the lights, will impact how well your lighting functions and the elegance of the staircase. Typically, stairs and stair lights are either square or round, so choosing lights that have a shape that fits with your stairs is key. This will allow you to highlight architectural sophistication and avoid dark walls or glare. You may also choose to go with a chandelier. Make sure it is large enough to light the full staircase.
- Style: Match the style of your stair lights or other staircase lighting to the existing style of the rest of your home or yard. If you're going for a modern look, find lights with a sleek design for your stairwell or staircases.
- Color: Picking your lighting color is about more than illumination. Choosing the color of your fixture is important to style-matching as well. Our collection includes lights finished with aluminum, gold, stainless steel, and more, so you can pick the perfect blend of fixture color and lighting color to match the style of your room.
- Weather Resistance (for outside lights): While it can be tempting to choose modern staircase lighting based on how sophisticated and sleek the fixtures look, if you're purchasing outside lights, you should also take the elements into account. They'll likely be exposed to rain, snow, and ice, depending on your climate.
