“Lamps can be a piece of a room’s art,” says Maria Kramer, gallery director for Troy-based lighting store City Lights Detroit. These days, she says, customers are looking for sculptural lamps that are uniquely shaped or feature colorful ceramics. Table and desk lamps made with mixed materials are also an easy way to elevate your space. “With so many people working from home, functional desk lamps have also been on trend, but they don’t have to be boring,” Kramer says.

Here, we’ve chosen some unconventional lamps to brighten up your space.
