There’s something quietly transformative about good lighting. The right shade doesn’t just brighten a room — it softens it, defines it, and brings it to life.
At Lumiere Shades, we design artisan linen lighting that’s handcrafted using natural fabrics and timeless forms. Every piece is made to feel calm, tactile, and considered — designed to travel lightly across styles, spaces, and cultures.
Over the years, we’ve been lucky to see our pieces find their way into beautiful homes around the world. From tropical villas in Bali to New York brownstones, here’s how our customers are styling Lumiere in their own spaces — each one a reflection of place, personality, and purpose.
Bali: Natural Light, Textured Spaces
In Bali, our linen pendant lights and natural fabric lamp shades feel instantly at home. They’re often used to complement textured interiors — think polished concrete, teak wood, and open living that spills into the garden. These homes embrace slow living and warm, organic materials.
Most loved: Wide dome pendants over dining tables, in off-white or taupe linen fabrics and natural jute cord kits.
New York: Mid-Century Warmth with a Subtle Japanese Influence
Many of our US customers are drawn to mid-century interiors with a calm, curated edge — think sculptural furniture, timber accents, and a focus on form and function. There’s often a quiet nod to Japanese design principles in these spaces: simplicity, balance, and a reverence for natural materials.
Our round empire shade in tightly woven rattan fits seamlessly into this aesthetic — offering warmth and texture while remaining understated. Suspended above a dining table, the shadeadds softness to the clean lines and muted palettes often found in both mid-century and Japanese-influenced interiors.
Most loved: Rattan & linen shades on low, timber sideboards; off-white linen pendants above dining areas, Oversized linen shades.
London: Subtle Warmth in Compact Spaces
In London’s compact homes, lighting is everything. Our sustainable linen lighting is often used to warm smaller rooms and create gentle ambience — from reading nooks to hallway corners. Interiors here often mix classic architecture with modern simplicity, and our shades adapt effortlessly to both.
Most loved: Small pendants with linen cords over reading corners, and linen sconces in narrow entryways.
Byron Bay & Sydney: Calm, Coastal Living
Australian homes celebrate light and connection to the outdoors. In Byron Bay and along the coast, our natural linen lighting is styled with a sense of ease — wide, open rooms, breezy curtains, and timber tones. These interiors feel relaxed but intentional.
Most loved: Oversized linen fringed shades in living spaces, and clusters of pendant lights over timber dining tables.
Tokyo & Seoul: Minimalism with Soul
In Tokyo and Seoul, our customers are drawn to simplicity — but with depth and texture. Our wabi-sabi-inspired lighting works beautifully here, offering soft illumination in compact, curated homes that favour natural materials and clean lines.
Most loved: Small linen table lamps in taupe or ivory linen, styled on low cabinetry or beside the bed.
Wherever they’re placed, our artisan linen shades have a way of settling in quietly — not demanding attention, but gently lifting the atmosphere of a room. They reflect your style, your palette, and your sense of home.
