At Iberian, we've noticed a delightful trend in lighting: the shift towards cosier homes. For years, minimalism reigned supreme. White, cream, and grey dominated, with smooth surfaces and clean lines. Function and form were paramount, leaving no room for distractions or frivolity.
Gradually, this minimalist look faded, making way for colour and softness. People began expressing their personalities more through fashion, reflecting their individuality in the spaces around them.
Recent years have brought significant changes, with many of us spending more time at home. Whether it is working remotely or simply having less money or time for outside activities, we've found ourselves indoors more often.
As we spent more time at home, cold minimalism lost its charm. We craved welcoming spaces – places we genuinely wanted to be, not just somewhere to store our clothes and sleep. This desire sparked a revival of bespoke Traditional Lamp Shades, soft shapes, warm textures, patterns, and colours.
That's precisely what we're witnessing. Typically, we only produce a few traditional light shades weekly, but we have seen a surge in orders that we've had to reorganise our workshop and train more staff to meet our lampshades made to order demands.
These hand-pleated and handmade lampshades exemplify what we mean by a return to soft, homely colours, creating a space you'll love spending time in. From table lamp shades to ceiling light shades, gold lamp shades to black lamp shades, we're seeing a resurgence in all styles and sizes of lampshades made in the UK.
It's time to let our traditional lampshades in various shapes and sizes do the talking – and the lighting! While you're at it, check out some handmade lampshades and lighting products designed to brighten your room. Or customise your lampshade to suit your unique style and personality. To start, choose from our essential shapes; Empire Lampshade, French Drums, Oval Lampshade, Square Lampshades or Rectangle Lampshades. Then choose your size, fabric, diffuser and trim, it is that simple.
For more bespoke orders, get in touch and let's make it happen.
