Wicker and bamboo are materials widely used in interior decoration. They can be seen in styles that are committed to a natural and carefree philosophy of life and the use of natural resources. Among them are the Rustic style, the Boho Chic style, the Zen style and the Colonial style; in short, those that seek to create relaxed, warm and exotic environments. We have already seen how to decorate with wicker and rattan using it in furniture and how it is also frequently used in terraces and porches in summer season and coastal environments. Today we focus on a decorative complement very explored by the artisans of natural fibers and the different basketry techniques such as wicker and bamboo lamps.
They are characterized by their lightness and the light they radiate, creating beautiful effects in the environment. We can place them on the ceiling of living rooms, dining rooms and kitchens providing the point of freshness or warmth depending on what other decorative elements we combine them with.
Choose pristine whites to create a beach-like atmosphere in your home and freshen up the ambiance, and introduce touches of green in textiles and with some greenery such as kokedamas, cacti or other exotic plants. For a more country or mountain feel, combine them with earth tones, wood floors, knitted blankets and shag rugs.
They also function as a floor lamp or even in the bedroom as a night light suspended over the bedside table. They provide a more or less dim light depending on the level of the interweaving of their fibers.
We can use wicker and bamboo lamps one at a time or in sets and combine different varieties and models, creating a great visual richness in the decoration. They also work especially well in the design of premises, or businesses in the hospitality world, creating a focal point on the ceiling that will attract all eyes. Whether in your home or in your business, the trick is simple: place them in the center of large hallways or on the dining table.
The new trends in constant evolution have opted for the dyeing of wicker and bamboo, evoking the Mayan and Mexican cultures, creating environments full of color and vitality. If you combine them in neutral and luminous spaces you will get that perfect touch for a decoration with a casual air.
