Statement lighting adds a wow factor and in the case of pendant lights, helps to draw the eye up to create a feeling of space and luxury,' says Helen Pett, design ambassador at Arteriors Home. 'This season we’ve seen a growing trend for oversized fixtures and fittings, particularly pendants and lamps. In this scheme a bespoke Lohja pendant light by Cameron Design House forms a piece of functional art which pops against the white walls, while a curvaceous sofa and shapely 637 Utrecht chairs create sculptural focal points beneath. White living rooms are also wonderful spaces to furnish with sculptural pieces. Not only will this draw the eye up, but it'll help to ground the space whilst adding that all-important balance and a sense of scale to the room.' 'For rooms with very high ceilings, try hanging portrait format works, ideally as a pair or even a triptych. 'If you have a large sofa with a blank wall behind it, then think about hanging a large landscape artwork as this can add height, depth and a focal point to the room,' suggests Helen Armon-Jones, founder, The Art Buyer. As spaces in frequent use and in which we entertain guests, living and family room ideas make a brilliant place for decorating with art, and keeping the foundation white is a great way to showcase colorful, statement pieces.
