Sustainable Design, Sustainable Living, Sustainable Everything
Looking for modern farmhouse light fixtures? These five lights are a little bit rustic, a little bit industrial – and all beautiful. Reclaimed barn wood. Metal pipes. Exposed wires. Edison bulbs. Will the modern farmhouse decor style ever fall out
Lighting is one of my favourite aspects of home design and decor. Even before I had a home to decorate, I would always end up in the lighting aisle every time I went to a big box store. Like a bug to a flame – or to a wrought-iron chandelier, the lights just called to me.
I’ve also always been really sensitive to lighting levels and associate certain lights with certain tasks only. I’m constantly going around the house at night turning specific lights on and off depending on what I’m doing and how I’m feeling and have even found myself adjusting lights while in the homes of others because it’s too bright/not bright enough/a certain light is really getting under my skin. (As an aside, I recently found out that being ultra sensitive to light is a characteristic of a highly sensitive person – which is actually a thing and I very much am one.)
