Designing with Fall Colors

We're rapidly approaching the Fall season...the temperature is cooling, leaves are falling to the ground, and nature begins to erupt in a symphony of warm colors. The change in season also ushers in a shift in home decor and interior design. At Kenroy Home, we selected our favorite elements of the fall season and matched them to lamps, mirrors, lanterns, and even fountains that mirror the color pallet of fall. So...put away those cool summer colors and get cozy with these suggestions;

Get Hooked on Fly Rod

Kenroy Home's "Fly Rod" Table Lamp

Inspired by the need for more gentlemen like "man cave" lighting - the Kenroy Home research team grew tired of internet search queries for "Man Cave Lamps" returning illuminated beer signs, plastic car lamps, and ahem..."risque silhouettes" fashioned into table lamps. Out of the rubble came the Kenroy Home "Fly Rod" Table Lamp - a fitting tribute to the time honored sport of fly fishing.  

Standing 28 inches in height, this lamp...or should I say "fishing pole with a shade" is the perfect companion lighting piece for man caves and fishing lodges alike. The oil rubbed bronze finish and fiber textured shade add just the right amount of detail to compliment the nuances of this wonderful past time.

Solar Lanterns - Hitting Shelves Soon...

Kenroy Home's new line of Solar Lanterns will be hitting both the shelves of showrooms and the servers of websites in just a few short weeks. The collection of products features four unique entries; "Leaves" - constructed of durable ceramic and finished in bright, shimmering colors; red and blue. The ten inch swirled frame of each lantern makes an exceptional table conversation piece, or a whimsical addition to a garden. Each Solar Lantern features a removable solar disc with a .3 watt LED light...it may seem small on paper, but the light creates a dynamic glow when the sun sets.

Equally impressive are "Coil" and "Tangle", both constructed of high quality rattan - registering in at a lower weight than their ceramic counterparts, these lanterns are more adapt to being suspended from a tree or garden structure. For more information about these new introductions; please see the video below...additionally, you can download the high resolution image pack from the link above my signature.

India Inspiration



Returning visitors to the Kenroy Home showroom this past Dallas Lighting Market would have noticed a dramatic departure from Kenroy Home’s typical collection of introductions. Straying away from their string of contemporary and transitional design releases, the designers at Kenroy Home drew inspiration from the classic and rich cultural heritage of India.

Detail One Light Pendant
Not only are these stunning fixtures inspired by Indian design culture, they were also manufactured directly from the source of inspiration – “In order to achieve the look we were after, it seemed only fitting that we’d manufacture using the materials and skill of India” says product designer Michael Miler-Riley. This is of course a stark departure from recent industry manufacturing methods where products that are decisively western in appearance are created in far east countries such China. Kenroy Home’s recent introductions are produced where they were inspired.

Focusing on the rich heritage of metalwork and craftsmanship found in India, Kenroy Home’s design team focused on rich copper tones and texture techniques such as hammered metal. The “Detail One Light Pendant”is an exceptional representation of a Kenroy Home design piece crafted in precise detail to go far and above a simply mimicked piece of Indian metal craft work. This pendant features a wide 16" diameter shell constructed of warm toned copper - an exceptional piece for the kitchen or dining room.
Dervish 1 Light Sconce

In addition to a new line of pendants and mini-pendants manufactured in India, Kenroy Home has also released a series of complimentary sconces - notably the "Dervish One Light Sconce", featuring a polished nickel body with striking brass accents. The over sized 13" frame creates a shimmering focal point for both contemporary and earth toned home decor themes.
Seville 1 Light Pendant

Rounding out the collection of unique Indian inspired pieces is the "Seville  1 Light Mini-Pendant"; designed as a companion piece to the best selling Seville Table Lamp - Seville features a sought after Moorish design theme. The pressed filigree metal introduces an interesting array of light leaks - this effect is increasingly noticed when suspended closer to the ceiling height.
