Why We Love Swing Arm Floor Lamps
Swing arm floor lamps combine portability with adjustability for light fixtures of fantastic convenience. These lamps are perfectly proportioned as reading lights, easily reached and adjusted by someone seated in an easy chair. Most of the swing arm floor lights offered at Lumens are streamlined and modern, but there are also more traditional options as well. So one can do paperwork, hobbies or read with ease in settings of any style.
Where Swing Arm Floor Lamps Work Best
Swing arm floor lamps often find their home in the living room, bedroom or in the home office. This style of floor lamp works particularly well when placed in a favorite reading spot (beside a cushy easy chair or sofa), beside a craft table or next to the desk in a home office. The versatility of an adjustable arm means one can have a wealth of task-oriented and focused light any time and anywhere it's needed, simply by swinging the light source in the desired direction. If one likes carving out some time to catch up on a good book, there's a special appreciation for reading with the plentiful amount of light from a swing arm floor lamp. And in home offices, these lamps can assist with filing paperwork or paying bills, in addition to providing a source of decorative lighting for the space.
Popular Brands of Swing Arm Floor Lamps
A floor lamp with arms seems like somewhat of a classic lighting choice; however, these options are meant to fit in a variety of interior design themes. If the preference leans more toward the transitional side of the decorating spectrum, there's a love for the swing arm lamps from Robert Abbey, including designs that are akin to the familiar shape and style of classic pharmacy lamps. Pablo Lighting takes a purely modern approach to the swing arm lamp with a number of sleek fixtures that stand out in a space. With sharp lines and eye-catching designs, the options offered by Pablo are sure to be appreciated. An LED swing arm floor lamp from Koncept or Modern Forms will be a great source of light in any room, while also being energy-efficient and cost-effective. Lastly, be sure to see the elegant works of art offered in the Visual Comfort floor lamp collection.
How to Choose the Best Swing Arm Floor Lamp
Because floor lamps with arms will facilitate a common task like reading, it is important to thoroughly research a fixture to make sure it is the right fit for the application. A floor lamp with adjustable arms is not noticeably large; however, the swinging arm will require plenty of room to stretch out. When picking out a new floor lamp, be sure to review its sizing dimensions including height, weight and length (how far the arm will reach), as well as its lamping options to know what kind of light bulb will be needed. Consider LED floor lamps, which are more energy-efficient than their incandescent counterparts. If the lamp is intended to facilitate purposes of reading, it's important to review its brightness as well (often referred to as lumen output). If the space is particularly large, consider the addition of an arc floor lamp. Arc floor lamps have extensive silhouettes, but make a statement in the room while providing ample light.
Other Considerations
Most of the lamps featured here serve a purpose of being highly stylish and acting as an effective type of reading light. If one is not in need of a reading lamp per se, there may be an interest in the collection of ambient floor lamps. Ambient lamps offer an abundance of general, warm light that is not always focused or used for certain tasks. Ambient light fixtures are a great choice for those rooms with low light that need just a little extra illumination. Consider a multi-arm floor lamp if there is a need for a fixture that can direct more than one point of light from protruding arms. Multi-arm or multi-bulb floor lamps are often adjustable and are also perfect for reading or task lighting. Also look into LED table lamps or console lamps to accent the interior of a space. Finally, swing arm wall lights provide similarly functional convenience and style, with the added benefit of freeing up usable floor space.
