The classic: smoked glass

Warm, shimmering and mysterious: smoked glass has a firm place in the world of retro design and is celebrating a stylish comeback with New Retro.

Especially in combination with filigree metal frames in brass or black, smoked glass looks both luxurious and inviting. Whether as a table lamp, pendant light or impressive ceiling installation - smoked glass is and remains a luminous classic.

Elegant retro vibes with metallic surfaces

Metallic accents are at the heart of the New Retro style. Brass, copper or brushed stainless steel surfaces bring a glamorous elegance into play and lend a sophisticated retro touch to any room. The soft sheen of these materials harmonizes perfectly with the warm light colours of modern LEDs and creates an incomparably homely atmosphere. Lampenwelt.de shows how metallic retro vibes can be stylishly implemented in any home - from minimalist designs to opulent eye-catchers.

Colorful retro feeling to fall in love with

Colors make the difference! Whether dusky pink, mustard yellow, turquoise or baby blue - the iconic tones of the 60s and 70s are enjoying a renaissance in the new retro style. These pastel colors bring lightness and a good mood into your home without being overpowering. Combined with clear shapes and modern materials, the result is lights that enhance any interior.

Must-haves: typical retro shapes

Spheres, cones, cylinders - the clear, iconic shapes of the mid-century era are an integral part of the New Retro style. These geometric designs bring structure and harmony to any room. Thanks to modern technology, lights in classic shapes are now not only visually appealing, but also functional. Particularly popular: adjustable joints and dimmable LED bulbs that combine the comfort of today with the aesthetics of yesteryear. Simply timelessly beautiful!
