“These days; designers are returning to the minimalist and modernist sensibilities of designers from the past, and the Axiom collection from Hudson Valley Lighting is true to this form. The simple, opaque glass sphere, with its beautiful metallic band, appeals to the design purist, while the mirrored backplate adds the touches of refinement and elegance Hudson Valley is known for.”

“The mania for brass has been raging for a good while, and it’s surfacing with bold pairings. Layering brass in with lighting, accessories and hardware creates a look that is timeless, warm and inviting. I’ve paired Hudson Valley’s brass lighting in my kitchen with brass switch plate covers, champagne bronze faucets, powder-coated bar stools and brass hardware. It creates a cohesive yet relaxingly beautiful space. If I had to pick one style, I would go with Clarke. The mix of white with brass and the nice clean lines of this style is gorgeous.”

Lighting Tip from Lynne: “When deciding on a bulb, chose a warm white light and avoid blue hues. Don’t forget about the dimmer! Dim those lights for dinner parties or entertaining. It’ll make everyone look 30 years younger.”
