Are you looking for a lampshade? But don’t want to assemble a flat pack?
Like the majority of people these days I like contemporary items of furniture and trendy furnishings in my home. Due to this I`m a big fan of a certain Swedish store that sells great value products that come in funky designs. Therefore when I looked at an IQ light the other day I just had to buy one of these Contemporary Lampshades for my dining room. If you are old enough to remember the original IQ Light way back in the 1970s you might be thinking, how can they suddenly be contemporary items? Retro furnishings are all the rage at the moment and this makes lighting designs taken from the original IQ light extremely modernistic. I love the look of these geometric designs and the fact that they are built up with numerous pieces. I wouldn`t fancy trying to tackle one of the larger types of Contemporary Lampshades on my own but luckily they now come fully assembled. For those folks who like to test their assembly skills they can order the Contemporary Lampshades in flat packs. I`m not that gifted if the truth be known and simply took the shade out of its box to attach to my existing dining room ceiling pendant.
Remember those retro IQ lights from the 1970s that were all the rage at the time? Well now they are back and they are more popular than ever due to the latest interpretations of the original idea. A modern IQ Light can make a real statement inside any room that it is fixed within. You don`t have to be a genius to put one together as they now come fully assembled. Some people might like the challenge of putting the IQ Light together and for them they can have flat packed kits delivered. Perhaps you could send one of the kits to one of your friends if they like piecing together a puzzle. When you look at the detail of one of the IQ lights, it`s hard not to be impressed. Originally their designer Holger Strom made the first light to be used as a Christmas display way back in 1972. The modern variations of that original design are very comprehensive. They look like a real work of art once they have been hung from a standard ceiling rose. A number of retailers sell the IQ Light and customers are faced with quite a choice when it comes to their design.
In 1972 a designer called Holger Strom was commissioned to make a Christmas light. He came up the idea of a geometric shape and little did he realise how popular his design would become. Here we are in the new Millennium and the original design has just gotten a whole lot better. Modern White Designer Lampshades encompass everything that was popular about the original IQ light design but the styles that are now available are simply superb. If you want a work of art hanging from your ceiling then these are the shades to choose. They can be put to good use in business premises and look extremely lavish in private homes. Hang one from your dining room ceiling and people will ‘Wow` in amazement when they enter the room. A number of distributors stock the new versions of the White Designer Lampshades and Smartylamps have a particularly fine collection. Their ‘Elektra` lampshade has to be seen to be believed and it can prove to be quite a focal point in any room. I`ll bet Mr Strom had no idea how popular his lighting design would become over the years. It`s thanks to him that modern White Designer Lampshades look as good as they do.
