Decorate on a budget with Lampmasters.co.uk's many Value for Money lights!
Imagine you've just bought your dream home and now you have to decorate it with designer lights from top to bottom. Now you might be thinking that sounds expensive - but it doesn't have to be. In Lampmasters.co.uk's Value for Money range, you'll find everything from small recessed spotlights to large impressive chandeliers - and we've tried to cover an entire home's lighting needs exclusively with lights from this segment. Join us for a fantasy tour of an imaginary home. We're sure you'll find inspiration for your next interior design project!
The driveway:
You approach the house and the gravel road crackles under the tyres of your car - a corridor of lights comes on along the driveway and you are greeted by the first lamp on the grand tour of our fantasy home. Jiada LED Outdoor Lamp w/Spike Graphite from Lucande welcomes you warmly. The beautiful industrial and minimalist form stands confidently, rigorously and heavily at regular intervals, spreading light in the bright green leaves of the avenue trees along the driveway.
Pull the handbrake and step out - a sea of Haukur solar lights from Lindby ensure you don't step into a puddle, as ambient light from the small opalised spear lights spreads throughout the courtyard. Your gaze is directed towards the door, and in a corridor of small round luminous spheres you walk up to the door. As you step on the tiles in front of the door, you activate one last sensor light and the elegant little Yolena LED lamp from Arcchio switches on and the downward light cone lands on the doormat, whose existence you are subtly reminded of.

Entrance: With freshly dried shoes, you step over the door frame - and your hand with dangling car keys naturally finds its way to the Josefin floor lamp. The Lindby floor lamp is switched on and gives the entrance hall a soft, cosy light - it's warm and gives the whole room a warm, inviting aura. You hang your jacket and hat on the coat rack before looking up and discovering the exciting skylight combination.
A lit Juliven from Lindby hangs from the ceiling, emphasising the diffuse and pleasant light used in the entrance hall - but slightly behind the Juliven hangs a Brinja 2, aimed at the coat rack and door. Curiosity gets the better of you and you press the power switch - a cold and practical light fills the entrance hall and a little bit of dirt is revealed. You can't help but think about how smart the spotlight is for cleaning - and that you should probably take your shoes off before you step inside.
Aisles: The entrance leads you into the hallway, from where you are now faced with a sea of possibilities. Kitchen, living room, bedroom? The hallway is elongated and an elegant glow from the Arcan wall light from Lucande, hanging on the right wall in a row along the length of the room, makes the hallway feel longer than it might be.
You notice the warm lighting and the thin line that hangs over the images, casting a soft but precise light down the surface of the colourful art. This is a Thibaud wall light in nickel from Lucande that, in its unmistakable pure elegance, can be pointed both towards the artwork below and upwards to give the room ambient light. You decide on the first door on the right.

Stay:
You enter the living room. The circus ring in which the circus of everyday life is parked outside the door, and the cosiness must come in. The room is furnished with two sofas in the centre of the room on either side of the coffee table, with an armchair at one end and a TV at the other. Along the back wall is a low chest of drawers, possibly a second-hand find - in solid oiled oak with four or five fixed knick-knacks - and behind the cabinet doors are books, pictures and a single bottle of vintage schnapps on display.
The first thing that catches the eye are five luminous balls hanging at eye level in the corner of the room. The Hayley 5 from Lucande catches the eye, and the way they hang at varying heights creates excitement and atmosphere in an otherwise calm room characterised by cosy lighting.
There's no shortage of reading light either - the beautiful Viskan floor lamp in black from Lindby leans over the back of the sofa, inviting you to find a book in the bookcase and sit down with a cup of tea. The soft diffused light becomes the baseline in the room and is only supported by the other cosy lamps we find on the dresser - because hidden next to the wooden figurines, knick-knacks and a single clay art piece from art class is a Jinda table lamp with blue shade in wood from Lucande and a Shivanja table lamp in ash wood from Lindby.
The kitchen: During the tour, you'll be embarrassed, and of course you'll move to the kitchen where you can chat over a cup of coffee, do homework with the kids and of course cook. Here, one or more Joffrey pendants from Lindby can create an inviting and cosy atmosphere throughout the kitchen.
Whether you're cooking, helping with homework or just chatting, the lighting in your kitchen is essential. The Marla Pendant Smoke from Lindby is an obvious choice. The lamp is dimmable, so you can adjust the light intensity to suit your needs, and here the light is dispersed through the transparent smoke-coloured glass spheres that beautifully reflect the surroundings. Marla is also a highly aesthetic design that looks great in your kitchen.
Flexible lighting is also a nice perk in your kitchen with the Bronwyn ceiling light from Lucande is a perfect choice. The lamp has a modern and exclusive look that will look great above your kitchen island, where you can also enjoy the flexibility of being able to raise and lower it as needed for bright, comfortable and glare-free lighting. The light is also dimmable, so you can adjust the delicious light beams for cosiness, homework and cooking.

Dining room/dining table: Continuing from the kitchen, you enter the dining room where you are instantly struck by visions of gathering the family after a long day over a meal, where you switch on your Valentina pendant light from Lindby, which with its coloured glass creates an atmospheric glow that exudes warmth, cosiness and comfort, making it the perfect gathering point for you and your family. At the same time, its light intensity is efficient and direct, so children can also do their homework at the dining table.
So whether you're gathering with your family or friends over a nice meal, for a cosy board game night or in a more festive setting, the lighting above your dining table is essential. The Mairia pendant from Lucande can also help set the right mood and lighting in your dining room. The lamp is highly decorative and is sure to catch the attention of your guests.
The bathroom: Not to mention, of course, you're in the bathroom during the day for various reasons, and whether it's morning, noon or night, it's important that you have the right lighting. If you want clear and pleasant lighting, the Gesina Ceiling Light Alu from Arcchio is a good choice. It contains two light sources that, in addition to being adjustable, are also dimmable, so you can adjust the light intensity and, depending on whether you need cosy and relaxed or direct and bright lighting, you can definitely find the right brightness. It's also worth its weight in gold when you wake up in the night to go to the toilet, so you don't get completely attacked by the bright light.
If you want efficient and bright lighting distributed throughout the bathroom, you can use a range of Katerin Recessed Spot White from Arcchio. The unassuming spotlight can be dimmed to create the perfect lighting. It has a temperature range of 3000 to 5700 Kelvin, so it alternates between warmer and cooler light - so depending on whether it's morning, noon or night, you can definitely find the perfect setting.

Staircase lighting: On the tour, you'll encounter some stairs - and stairs are dangerous, which is why your stair lighting is extremely important for your safety. Indoors, LED panels or spotlights on rails can be a good solution, where outdoor staircase lighting can be in the form of outdoor lights with sensor or bed lights.
For the small steps in the garden or at the entrance, the Jaano Outdoor Recessed Wall Light in anthracite from Lucande is an obvious choice as it spreads a downward, warm white light that creates an inviting and cosy atmosphere and beautifully illuminates the individual steps so you can set foot with confidence.
A number of Emina Wall lights in gold have been used for the staircase inside, exuding warmth and cosiness thanks to the golden surface and warm lighting. The lamp emits a diffused and pleasant light that spreads to the entire staircase as the light shines from the top and bottom of the lamp. It is also highly aesthetic and has a magical effect in the room.
The nursery: When darkness falls and it's time to put the kids to bed, it's important to have a reading light for bedtime stories. Fortunately, we've thought of that, and you can use the Idaline table lamp from Lucande to read fairy tales to the little ones. The lamp has a colourful and playful design that is both eye-catching and cheerful, making it perfect for children's rooms where it brings joy to children and adults alike.
Hours can pass while the children play - and here we have chosen a ceiling light so that the children can play freely without the risk of knocking over a light source. Here is Umma Ceiling Light White from Lindby, which is a great addition to the children's room. Its simple design effortlessly becomes part of the ceiling, emitting a soft, comfortable and glare-free light that can illuminate the entire room while being dimmable so you can continuously turn the light intensity up or down depending on whether it's morning, noon or night.

The bedroom: You walk into your bedroom and can easily imagine the alarm clock going off early in the morning - you're tired and struggling to wake up - and you definitely need a nice, soft and glare-free light to wake you up. With a Sebatin Ceiling light Grey/White/Nickel from Lindby with a Kelvin of 3000, you are guaranteed a gentle and pleasant awakening and a good start to your day.
Once you've rolled out of bed and are making your way towards the wardrobe, it can be beneficial for you to have a more focused and clear light so you have a better overview of what items you need to grab and so you don't swap clothes between you and your partner. Here Lowie LED Spot White from Lindby is an obvious choice! Lowie comes in different versions with either one, two or three spots, which also have a Kelvin of 3000 and therefore emit a warm white light that creates a cosy and comfortable atmosphere - not bad when you haven't had your morning coffee yet. Lowie fits into any environment, emitting bright, direct and soft beams of light that you can adjust in different directions depending on your needs thanks to the flexible lamp head.
After darkness has fallen over your home, you need a nice and soft light to fall asleep to - maybe you're reading, relaxing or processing the day's experiences. The Benjiro Table Lamp White/Chrome from the Lindby brand is a perfect choice! In addition to looking great on the bedside table, it is also highly functional and flexible as it has two light sources. The large fabric-covered lampshade spreads a soft and cosy light, perfect for when you need to slow down. However, if you're reading a good book, the extra light source is highly optimal as it has a more direct and focussed light that you can adjust in the direction you want.
The office: You enter the office and switch on your classic desk lamp; Selea desk lamp from Lindby. The lamp is a classic and beautiful combination of brass with a green glass lampshade, giving it a traditional and exclusive look that can adorn your office for many years. The coloured glass lampshade also emits a soft and warm light that is easy on the eyes when working long hours at your desk.
If you alternate between cosy reading and focused work - then the Eleni Table Lamp White from Lindby is definitely the ideal choice. The lamp has high functionality as you can set the light in four levels, ranging from a Kelvin of 3000 to 6200, so you go from warmer to cooler light. You can also control the light intensity in a dimmer or brighter direction, so you can get exactly the lighting that suits your changing needs. In addition, the lamp head and lamp arm can also be tilted and swivelled in the direction you want the light, making it extremely practical to have on your desk.

Brewers: Practical, purposeful and sensible. The utility room is the backstage for the daily life that takes place in the home. There's a washer-dryer column, four huge built-in cabinets and a kitchen-like counter with sink. On the utility room table is an invitation to a flea market organised by the local volunteer sports club, a cardboard box with some freshly picked apples from the back garden.
There's a vacuum cleaner, ironing board, a couple of boxes of retired stuff in the cupboard - and you'll be surprised how easy it is to see what's on the shelves inside the cupboard. An "aha" feeling seeps through your body as you look up and discover the beautiful spotlight lamp from Lindby called Filiz. Again, concrete is used in the design of the lamp - and you can really feel how the designer behind this home has put a lot of thought into it. You can't find the screwdriver set - and decide that the little Phillips screwdriver has officially left home, as you place it back on the worktop. You walk up to the back door with the glass window and anti-theft sticker, switch off the many Milaine recessed spotlights you've only just discovered and head out into the backyard.
Rear harbour: The backyard consists of a long lawn with fruit trees, a gas barbecue, and a terrace hidden behind a brick half-wall with a wooden back wall where wine grows.
In the dark, the beautiful fruit trees light up. Each is illuminated by the beautiful Galina spear lamps from Lucande that are pointed up into the treetops, and apples and pears glow like jewellery hanging from the large branches.
Along the wall of the house hangs a row of Cassian outdoor lamps from Lucande, imitating classic lanterns but in a new, modern and minimalist design. The black silhouette is almost hanging from a hook - but fear not, it won't blow down. The lamp is fixed to the hook, so you don't have to worry about losing a Cassian during the next storm.
