Lighting Style Guides

6 curated style guides touching lighting, pulled from across our whole UK home & garden catalogue.

This section of our Style Guides focuses on lighting solutions designed to elevate your home’s ambience and functionality. We've curated a selection of stylish lamps, sophisticated ceiling lights, and practical task lighting options – all chosen for their quality and design impact. Whether you’re seeking warm, inviting glows or focused illumination for specific activities, you’ll find something here to complement your interior style.

Farmhouse & Rustic Style Home UK

Farmhouse and rustic style leans into warm wood tones, textured finishes and a lived-in, country feel. This hub rounds up genuinely rustic-styled pieces — from mason jar pendant lights to barnwood coat racks — pulled from across our furniture, lighting, storage and home decor ranges.

Minimalist Style Home UK

Minimalist style strips things back to clean lines, quiet colours and function-first design. This hub gathers genuinely minimalist pieces — sleek taps, slimline wardrobes, understated wall art and pared-back lighting — from across our bathroom, storage, decor and lighting ranges.

Industrial Style Home UK

Industrial style borrows from workshops and warehouses — exposed metal, pipework-style legs and dark, utilitarian finishes. This hub collects genuinely industrial-styled furniture, lighting and storage from across our catalogue for anyone furnishing a loft, home office or open-plan living space.

Boho Style Home UK

Boho (bohemian) style layers natural textures, warm patterns and a relaxed, eclectic mix of pieces. This hub gathers genuinely boho-styled decor from across our catalogue — mandala tapestries, textured rugs, rattan-shaded lamps and ceramic vases — so you can bring that laid-back, lived-in look into a room without a full redecoration.

Vintage & Retro Style Home UK

Vintage and retro style brings back mid-century silhouettes, antique-brass finishes and playful 50s-inspired kitchenware. This hub gathers genuinely retro-styled pieces from across our catalogue — a Smeg-style kettle, mid-century furniture, antique brass lighting and typography wall art — for anyone wanting a nostalgic, characterful look rather than a modern minimalist one.

Japandi Style Home UK

Japandi blends Japanese minimalism with Scandinavian warmth — neutral wood tones, natural rattan and simple ceramic tableware over anything ornate. This hub gathers genuinely Japandi-suited pieces from across our furniture, storage, lighting and kitchen ranges, so you can bring that calm, natural-material look into a room without hunting through dozens of categories.
