The LIGHT touch in interior design

Lighting is an integral part of interior design, and exterior design, as is the case in a photo below. It not only adds to the space colour scheme and mood, but also can be the only one accent piece with which to change the whole impression.

The new chalice-shaped Leimu lamps by London designer Magnus Pettersen, presented at  Clerkenwell Design Week this year is the perfect accent piece.

 Pod Lens Outdoor Pendant by Luceplan - a 1998 Ross Lovegrove design, provides festive patio lighting with its UV-resistant, polycarbonate diffuser and waterproof body. 

Transitional Tech Lighting Soleil Bronze 6 1/2-Inch-H MonoRail Pendant - bronze finish, amber glass. Beautiful.
Sometimes lighting can have additional functions in interior design - like this beautiful solution below:

Luceplan’s Synapse system (above) is a great illuminating solution for open-plan interiors. It is based on repetition of a three-lobe module composed of shells in polycarbonate and RGB LEDs

And finally, another great idea - lighting within the furniture - not new as an idea, but new as a way of applying it in a very elegant and modern way:
