This Treasure Trove of Trendy Lighting Just Dropped the Chicest Outdoor Lamp Collab
You’ve probably gotten your patio ready for warm weather by now. Maybe you’ve invested in a comfortable conversation set, and hosed down any cobwebs that might’ve formed in corners. But even with these basic tasks accomplished, your outdoor space isn’t complete without proper lighting. If you’re ready to ditch the flood lights and spring for something a little more sophisticated, you’re in luck.
Pooky, one of our editors’ favorite lighting brands, just released a collection of outdoor lamps in collaboration with The Novogratz. Not only are the lamps rechargeable and easy to use, but they’re also beautiful, so they practically double as decor. (Once patio season is over, you can even use some of them inside!) A couple of items from the new collection are especially great for small spaces, including this stylish lantern and this eclectic table lamp. No matter which style you choose, your new lighting will take your summer hosting to the next level.
What Is the Pooky x Novogratz Collection?
This collection has 14 rechargeable lighting pieces designed to instantly upgrade your outdoor space, as well as other delightfully kitschy accessories, like a mirror and various sconces. Pooky, the cult-favorite United Kingdom lighting brand, is known for its bold, out-of-the-box lamp and pendant designs. For this collab, it partnered with lifestyle and design duo The Novogratz to make its bestselling products even more practical.
The cordless offerings are mostly floor and table lamps, but there’s also a rechargeable seagrass and jute pendant that’s one of the most innovative outdoor lighting solutions I’ve seen. The cordless pieces are compatible with Pooky’s rechargeable Genesis light cell, which has a battery life of up to 17 hours depending on your lamp’s brightness.
As for the small-space lamps, the Stefan Cordless Lantern instantly caught my eye. Even in the largest size, which measures 23.5 inches tall and 13.5 inches wide, it would make a great source of ambient light for a tiny terrace. If you’re after something you can place on a side table, though, the Stefan also comes in a small and medium size. I also love the Holleder Cordless Table Lamp, which features a striking ribbed base. You also get to choose from over 200 shade options, so it’s pretty customizable, too.
Why You’ll Love the Pooky x Novogratz Collection
These lamps and pendants not only come in multiple summery colors, but most styles are also available in a few different sizes, as I just highlighted. So you can mix and match and play with both color and proportion to achieve a thoughtfully curated outdoor lighting setup. And it goes without saying that the lamps’ cordless nature is so much more convenient than having to plug in multiple fixtures and dodge cords that stretch across the ground.
If you stock up on any of the small lamps, you can move them around on a whim, too, which is handy for task lighting if you like to work or read outside in the evenings. Or, if you want to create an intimate environment while dining al fresco, placing a lamp in the center of the table will work wonders.
No matter which lamp or combination of lamps you buy, your outdoor hangouts will be 100 times more stylish and seamless as a result. And when summer ends, you can continue using them indoors. After all, they’re so chic, you’ll never want to put them away!
