Decorating in Pairs: Matching Lamps

We don't always go for the matchy-matchy look, but we do love a good pair of lamps. Next to the bed or on top of a console table, a set of lamps can bring balance to a spot that needs some structure...

  • 1 Two lamps in Amy's living room help to define a transitional space.
  • 2 In Amy's bedroom, another set of lamps reinforces the clean, clutter-free look.
  • 3 Heidi & Kirk's offbeat aesthetic is anchored by the symmetry of their living room.
  • 4 Matching pendant lamps look great hung just a little off-center.
  • 5 Alex's bar looks oh-so-chic with a silver tray and pair of console lamps.

Ha! I have the same lamps as in Amy's space - they're from IKEA... Very steakhouse cool, though.

Kristin, do you know the name of that lamp? I love the amoeba-y base and am looking for a lamp.

I so want those end tables in the second picture - though maybe in not such a bright white. I'd love the lamps in the last picture.

You know, I don't know the name - I bought them years ago. Let me see if I can find it on the bottom of them (I'm at work now so I'll do it when I get home.)
