Classic Warehouse Shades As Seen On Design Sponge

How-To, Style Guides Betty Leave a Comment on Classic Warehouse Shades As Seen On Design Sponge

Many warehouse shades similar to the barn pendants sold at Barn Light Electric Co.® are featured on Design Sponge – an interior design blog.

The first example comes from a Design Sponge post showcasing the new home of Lisi and Alex, a young family in Barcelona, Spain. With a baby on the way, the couple sought a home with “a soul, a story and a history.” Once they found the house of their dreams, they collaborated with a designer who refurbished the house who respected the old construction, while making the new design changes look contemporary and organic to the home’s original style at the same time. At Barn Light Electric Co.®, we apply the same design philosophy to our vintage inspired light fixtures. Our barn pendants are based on the RLM warehouse shades that were originally popular around 1930.
