Top Lighting Trends for 2025: Layered, Eco & Sculptural Elegance

Jul 10, 2025

Lighting is no longer just about brightness — it’s about atmosphere, character, and storytelling. As we move into 2025, lighting design takes bold new directions, helping you create a space that is not only functional but also emotionally resonant.

Here are the 3 major lighting trends that will dominate 2025 — and how you can apply them at home.

1. Layered Lighting – Create Depth and Warmth

Gone are the days of relying on a single overhead light. In 2025, layered lighting takes center stage — blending ambient, task, and accent lights to add warmth, dimension, and purpose to each room.

Why it matters:

  • Creates a cozy, dynamic atmosphere

  • Supports different functions (reading, cooking, relaxing)

  • Allows mood flexibility throughout the day

How to start: Anchor your space with a strong ceiling light, then build layers using floor lamps, sconces, and subtle backlighting.

Editor's Pick:

👉 CALLIE Chandelier – A sleek, romantic chandelier with soft glass and metal tones that bring calm and cohesion to your lighting layers.


2. Sustainable Materials & Natural Aesthetics

Sustainability isn’t just a trend — it’s becoming a design standard. In 2025, lighting design embraces eco-conscious practices and natural materials like hand-finished wood, organic linen, recycled glass, and energy-efficient LEDs.

What to look for:

  • LED compatibility

  • Locally sourced or natural materials

  • Packaging with minimal waste

  • Timeless shapes that outlast trends

Why it works: These lights bring calm, warmth, and intentional beauty into your home — while minimizing environmental impact.

Try this:
👉 OKA Wabi-Sabi Pendant Light – Inspired by the Japanese Wabi-Sabi philosophy, this piece highlights natural imperfections with elegance and authenticity.

3. Sculptural Statement Fixtures

Lighting is evolving into something more expressive — a form of art. In 2025, statement chandeliers and abstract silhouettes turn ordinary ceilings into curated design moments.

Signature details to look for:

  • Asymmetrical or floating forms

  • Sculpted glass or hand-crafted metal

  • Reflective finishes that bounce light beautifully

  • Bold size or contrast within a minimal space

Why it works: These pieces double as focal points, creating mood and memorability with one dramatic touch.

Our pick:
👉 CORE Glass and Gold Pendant – Floating globes and brushed gold create a celestial centerpiece that captures attention from every angle.
