An indoor floor lamp, both decorative and functional, optimizes room lighting. Mounted on a straight pole, a curved pole, or a tripod, adjustable or not, it can be installed in the living room as well as in the dining room.
The available floor lamps differ in their shape and base:
- straight models are mounted on a straight pole with a base that allows them to balance;
- tripod models naturally balance;
- curved models can be offset to provide direct lighting (above a coffee table or dining table, for example) without taking up too much space;
- some models resembling tubes (without a pole) are placed directly on the floor.
The offered models also differ by their light fixture.
- Versions with a fabric shade are the most classic. They allow to illuminate the entire surrounding area.
- Some models are equipped with an adjustable or fixed reading lamp. They are placed above a sofa or an armchair.
- Others are equipped with a spotlight which can be directed to illuminate a specific area of the room.
- Models with indirect lighting have a light fixture directed towards the ceiling.
- Some modern design versions are equipped with a LED lamp without a shade.
Various materials are used for the manufacture of this indoor light fixture.
- Wood is appreciated for its natural aspect.
- Metal is valued for its strength and lightness. Various finishes are available (chrome, painted, rust, etc.).
- Some models have a marble or stone base for aesthetic reasons, but also to enable them to balance.
Some parameters should be considered when choosing the light fixture:
- straight or tripod models can be adjusted in height for optimal lighting;
- some devices are equipped with an articulated pole similar to desk lamps;
- some versions are equipped with a motion detector and automatically turn on in the presence of an individual;
- powerful models can serve as the main lighting source;
- light fixtures equipped with a dimmer offer the possibility to dim the light for a romantic atmosphere.
Regardless of the chosen indoor floor lamp, it must match the style of the room's decor. The choice also depends on the use of the equipment (to light up the whole room or a dark area, facilitate reading, etc.).
