8. Vintage and Retro Influences: Antique, vintage, and retro designs reemerge, adding a touch of nostalgia and character to modern spaces. Look for classic shapes and finishes.
9. Curvaceous Forms Over Angular Shapes: Soft, rounded lines and organic shapes dominate lighting design, creating a more inviting and calming atmosphere.

These pieces are not just sources of light but artistic statements. The brass angular art piece used in her design is a prime example.
