Edison bulbs are bad

I like all of them except for the rectangular piece.

Some would call those minimalist. I think they all just look lazy as fuck.

Abount $3 wholesale from China, $20 if you buy them from a designer lighting shop.

First one needs more spikes so I can skewer the bodies of my enemies on it. For ambiance.

I like the wall sconces and the wall paneling, that is about it. The rest of the lighting package can GTFAC. I hope your client likes it, I would have gone more fancy or modern.

Yes. And fake LED Edison bulbs are worse

Why?

I may or may not have them...

For Sweden > CarsofFortLangley - Oppo Forever

Because they don’t light up a room very well

I think they look fine and within current trends but they will look dated fairly quickly. Then again people who have houses like that can usually afford to redecorate.

Do you want glare?

Because this is how we get glare!

They look great, though. I like them for decorative lamps and things where the lighting isn’t as important.

Also because they make you look like a hipster pop-up bar.

Victorian-era styling on lighting

in what appears to be a modern home...

um.

no thanks.

I’ll take none of the above.

the pendants are pretty pedestrian, builder’s grade-lookin’ HGTV stuff, but the rest could be pretty good in a contextual setting. i also don’t like edison bulbs much, but i think trying to put a standard bulb in those sconces would look atrocious.

I like the soft yellow glow of incandescent lights, but don’t like the heat they put off or their power consumption.

The chandeliers are ugly, hard “no”. The others (#2 & #4) I like.

Mind you, I prefer LEDs that are used in a creative manner to light without proper fixtures. I like the strips on top of ledges near the ceiling that reflect down on a room, avoiding a traditional light fixture entirely.

I also despise that wall paneling garbage in #2. Goddamned HGTV bullshit. This one lady in Waco TX is obsessed with the crap (and doesn’t even know the right name for it), so everyone is slapping it on walls everywhere. All it reminds me of are 1970s single-wide mobile homes.

Neither do candles. but they are nice!

I disagree. Probably because I have 11 in my kitchen.

Light fixtures, switches, and molding are the ultimate in disposable design. I’m glad that wallpaper (the devil) isn’t cool, I just wish they’d stop with this paneling garbage.

I want to burn down the HGTV headquarters for keeping us stuck in this 2005 time warp forever.

cool. We should fight.

It’s the only sensible choice. Like my light bulbs.
