The IKEA Lamp Series That Brings A Room Together With Warmth And Sophistication

If you're on the lookout for ways to make your home more inviting and interesting, one place to start is with your lighting. Many homes lack sufficient natural lighting, or perhaps the layout of the house simply doesn't allow illumination to flood from one side of a room to another. Whatever the case may be, an inadvertently dark space can result in a limited feeling when inside. Fortunately, however, improving the lighting in your space while tying your aesthetic together is easy to do with IKEA's budget-friendly and popular lamp series SIMRISHAMN.

The SIMRISHAMN lineup is affordable and versatile in its application, with chrome-plated metal features alongside spherical frosted glass that is unlike your typical lighting options. You'll appreciate the affordability of these showstopping products, which range from $39.99 for the smallest table/wall lamp to $159.99 for a seven-arm chandelier.

If you're a reviews person, these lamps will offer you peace of mind in that realm, with high ratings and plentiful feedback on the various models. Nearly all reviews praise the lamps for their quirky and stylistic design, with negative comments mostly coming in the form of assembly criticism. One happy customer who purchased the floor lamp writes, "This lamp gives a modern feel. Nice size, not too small or tall. Gives off [the] right amount of light, if you use the bulbs recommend[ed] with this product. ... Exactly what I was looking for!"

If you're more classically inclined in your interior decor, you might not be instantly attracted to these lamps, whose globes offer an element of whimsy to any interior. If you like being a little quirky with your home's design, however, there are practically limitless options to style with this lamp lineup. The small table/wall lamp makes a great wall sconce option for an entryway or hallway (consider purchasing an adhesive cord hider to paint the color of your wall to conceal the obvious black cord that will dangle from the fixture). A particularly fun way to implement more lighting over a kitchen bar is with the SIMRISHAMN pendant fixture ($89.99), and of course you can't resist adding one of the floor lamps ($109.99) to your living room or bedroom.

Looking to the internet can be another great source of inspiration if you're trying to envision how to pull it off in your space. One TikTok video by @alyssabriannee8 shows the IKEA floor lamp sitting gracefully in the corner of a bedroom. The clip demonstrates the warm glow that you can achieve by purchasing this item, and comments on the video seem to love the way it ties the room together. 

Another short video by @gehtdichnichtsanna demonstrates the easy unboxing and assembly of a table lamp, which from the looks of it will require only a few minutes to put together. Easily within reach of most budgets and versatile enough for many interior styles, the SIMRISHAMN could be the perfect addition to your home's lighting game.
