I’ve always had an affinity for unique lighting ideas. Office lighting has been near and dear to my heart since, for the most of my working career, I had to simulate natural light in my workspace.
I typically wasn’t afforded an office with natural light streaming in but that wasn’t always the case. I was fortunate to work in a cubicle that was alongside a wall of windows but that didn’t last long enough.
A windowless office or a windowless room can become bright and cozy with the proper lighting. My wife and I moved to a mountain home a number of years ago so I’ve been looking around for creative and unique lighting ideas for a mountain home.
We have implemented unique lighting in our home and I’ve made it a point to snap photos of other creative lighting options found in our local area. This article will highlight some of those stylish and unique lighting ideas I have come across.
So let’s get to it!
1. Frosted Globe Chandelier

This elegant light fixture softens the look of exposed wood ceilings while adding a warm glow to the room. The curved metal arms and frosted light shades make it a timeless option for wooden lighting ideas in a cozy and stylish mountain retreat.
2. Industrial Ceiling Fan with Edison Light

This ceiling fan with built-in Edison light blends airflow and style with a bold industrial look that fits perfectly in rustic interiors such as the cabin seen here. The mix of metal and wood lighting design adds character while keeping the space comfortable year-round.
