All That Shines

All that shines (or glows) is sometimes gold. You know that at Beyond Interior Design, we love a good light fixture moment. We boasted about some of our favorite lighting designers in a this post that you can check out. Aside from the glimmer and shine, statement light fixtures are so much more versatile than we all expect them to be. Sure, they help light up a space. However, the dimension, depth and texture that a light fixture adds to a room cannot be understated. They act like conversation starters and as design elements that anchor the room. We have gathered some of our favorite and most stunning light fixtures around. Lights… action!
