There were plenty of fresh designs at Lightovation last month as manufacturers experimented with new finishes, natural materials, and created fixtures specifically to meet the requests from customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trend #1: There\u2019s No Such Thing as Too Large<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThat looks great, but can you make it bigger?\u201d For years, new homes in Texas were famously enormous \u2013  with multiple-story foyers and great rooms with soaring ceilings \u2013 but eventually builders nationwide got the memo that new homeowners today are in love with big scale. (Side note: this does not hold true for the Canadian market.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over the past several Lightovations, a typical conversation I had with manufacturers in their showrooms went like this, \u201cSo we brought out a larger version of our XYZ fixture,\u201d and they would point to a style that had  just come out the previous market and had been their largest size to date. I would ask, \u201cWow, what made you go even bigger? It was already huge.\u201d Without exception, the answer was the same, \u201cWell, our showrooms and reps are saying people want their fixtures even larger these days.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The most popular styles are ones with large diameters, but without a heavy silhouette. In other words, wagon wheels on Ozempic. Whether these fixtures have one, two, or three tiers, the frame is incredibly slim so that it appears to float weightlessly below the ceiling while softly casting light below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One category where this supersize mentality has taken hold is the exterior entry, flanking the front door. Both Hubbardton Forge<\/a> and Eurofase<\/a> displayed sculptural fixtures that look distinctly elegant (and completely different from each other in aesthetics) and measured five and six feet high. These entry fixtures clearly make a design statement that is noticeable from quite a distance away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trend #2: Outdoor Lighting Goes Upscale<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking of the outdoors, there were more new exterior lighting choices that provided a feeling of luxury, whether it was through the use of materials such as marble, alabaster, and travertine (as seen on the outdoor lighting intros from new company Alteck<\/a>) or by using sculptural forms and elegant finishes.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I heard the term \u201cDark Sky-friendly\u201d mentioned multiple times in different showrooms, although in each case it was pointed out that the fixtures are not officially Dark Sky-certified because the Dark Sky certification process is both lengthy and costly. There is more awareness among consumers, I was told, regarding limiting light pollution and preserving dark skies for environmental reasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At new lighting company Alteck Lighting, luxury natural materials gave these wet location-listed fixtures an upscale look.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In addition, marine-grade finishes \u2013 once only available on a few select styles from a manufacturer, if at all \u2013 are now more widely available on multiple collections and covered by a five-year warranty. Let\u2019s face it, Mother Nature has been harsh in all parts of the country lately, so finishes that can stand up to the effects of rain and wind are beneficial.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trend # 3: That Sure Doesn\u2019t Look Like a Chandelier<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now that consumers have gotten comfortable with LED as a light source replacement for incandescent, lighting manufacturers have been pushing the boundaries of what lighting fixtures can look like, debuting unique designs that wouldn\u2019t be possible with larger, less-efficient legacy light sources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kuzco<\/a>\u2019s Corda rope-like lighting fixture, which can be dramatically draped from one point on the ceiling to another, is just one example. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"

SATCO\/Nuvo <\/a>presented multiple series of edge-lit wall sconces, ceiling fixtures, and vanity lights with a ghost-like, transparent quality that takes full advantage of LEDs\u2019 properties while offering a unique aesthetic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
These fixtures from SATCO\/Nuvo utilize the unique properties of LED<\/em> to evoke a ghost-like or hologram look.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Hubbardton Forge\u2019s SNAPS collection, created by the design team’s Andy Morter, showcased ingenuity in a truly novel way. The design is distinguished by premium leather straps (enclosing concealed electrical wires) that can be easily fastened together to form ceiling fixtures, floor lamps, and sconces in a variety of shapes and dimensions. Illumination comes from two-sided alabaster spheres lit with LED that are fastened along the straps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Hubbardton Forge’s SNAPS series is a revolutionary way to customize a lighting installation.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Ingenious designs with luxury materials are, not surprisingly, on the high end of the price scale, but the upscale\/luxury market has consistently proven to be one that continues to thrive regardless of the stock market and interest rates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trend #4:  It\u2019s Made of What?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the January edition of Lightovation, attendees saw glass used in intriguing ways with atypical shapes and qualities. Relative newcomer SDQ Lighting presented glass accents that had a swirled, cloud-like appearance, dangling from chandeliers as well as glass orbs with metallic-like etching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
SDQ experimented with different glass treatments on its new fixtures.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

At Hubbardton Forge, glass was draped Salvador Dali-like over metal frames for an almost surreal effect. And at Oxygen<\/a>, textured glass cuffs reminiscent of ice melting hung from the brackets of sconces.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quorum International<\/a> takes a classic shape and design and gives it a fresh twist thanks to the unique glass treatment. <\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Avenue Lighting<\/a>\u2019s vertical ribbed glass pendants and sconces in soft colors have proven so popular that the company debuted linear fixture versions to hang over dining tables and kitchen islands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Avenue Lighting had such a great response to its vertical glass pendants last year that it debuted linear versions, as well as a linear fixture (at right) with concealed wires in the straps.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Among Kalco Lighting<\/a>\u2019s new designs were fixtures featuring porcelain and bone china for a beautifully delicate look that spans coastal and contemporary d\u00e9cor or offers a feminine flourish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bone china and porcelain were among the materials utilized by Kalco for its new collections.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Wood beads, coconut shells, water hyacinth, alabaster, and natural shells are some of the natural materials used on award-winning interior designer and TV host Breegan Jane\u2019s line for Savoy House<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alabaster was the medium of choice for many new introductions at Lightovation from a variety of manufacturers. Instead of the more traditional ways we saw alabaster used in lighting during the 1990s and early 2000s, this time alabaster is showing up in asymmetrical shapes, sometimes with dramatic veining, and other times deliberately with no veining apparent in order to present a very uniform glow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 Spanish alabaster even made an appearance on ceiling fans, as Alex Ostrovsky of Modern Forms pointed out to me. One of the new styles that debuted at Lightovation used alabaster on the light kit for an elegant touch.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Travertine and basalt stone were also focal points on Modern Forms<\/a>\u2019 Caviar cylindrical pendant series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trend #5: Ceiling Fans Get Decorative<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ceiling fans are no longer taking a back seat when it comes to room d\u00e9cor. As evidenced at Lightovation, this category is having a moment and attracting more interior designers than in years past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
At Matthews Fan Company, a new finish (left) was popular with customers as was the Ariella fan in a 64-inch size.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Before Lightovation, Matthews Fan Company<\/a> exhibited its line at BDNY<\/a> in New York City. The BDNY show is a must-see event among interior designers and up until now, ceiling fans were not a category on display as designers prefer installing a lighting fixture instead of a ceiling fan in main living spaces. However, this year was the first time that Matthews Fan decided to exhibit, and the reaction to the ceiling fans (especially one shown in a bold Bordeaux color) was so impressive that president Joel Maldonado realized that designers are finally ready to set aside their past reluctance to use ceiling fans and embrace the latest styles.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maldonado mentioned that the new Ariella fan (named in honor of his daughter) received a great reception at Lightovation, particularly in the 64-inch size, which he says is the sweet spot regarding the perfect size for many rooms.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
An alabaster light kit (left) and new finishes on flushmount fans at Modern Forms are some of the touches that elevated the category to have designer appeal.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n


The new styles that Modern Forms unveiled at Lightovation featured higher-end aesthetics such as carved wood blades, an alabaster light kit, and a more modern silhouette for the flushmount versions.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Fanimation debuted larger light kits in order to provide more ambient light. <\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Fanimation <\/a>appealed to designers and fashionable consumers with its new pleated fan blade style, developed by president Nathan Frampton. Available in several finishes, it\u2019s a fresh take on both Coastal looks and a relaxed tropical theme.  And speaking of tropical, Fanimation customers were thrilled to find that their favorite Islander model (one of the company\u2019s iconic styles) is now offered in a DC motor version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other touches that received raves at Fanimation were CCT-selectable light kits and a larger-diameter light kit to provide more ambient light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
