The AW26 lighting collection: Form, texture and atmosphere

A considered approach to lighting can transform the way an interior looks, feels and functions. Our AW26 collection explores the relationship between light, material and atmosphere.

BoConcept's new AW26 lighting collection

Lighting plays a defining role in how we experience an interior. It influences our perception of space, draws attention to architectural details and establishes the atmosphere of a room. For residential, hospitality and Build-to-Rent environments, getting the balance right is essential to creating spaces that feel welcoming, considered and comfortable.

At BoConcept, we approach lighting as an integral part of interior design, rather than a finishing touch. Our AW26 lighting collection explores how considered forms, tactile materials and softer illumination can bring greater depth and warmth to contemporary spaces.

Inspired by the Scandinavian approach to living, the collection embraces layered lighting, using multiple sources to create a more nuanced atmosphere. Rather than relying solely on overhead lighting, combining table lamps, floor lamps and pendants allows different areas of a room to serve distinct purposes, while creating a cohesive overall environment.

Balancing form and material

A successful lighting scheme considers both the quality of the light and the presence of the fitting itself. The AW26 collection brings together architectural silhouettes and softer, tactile finishes, balancing materials such as marble, ceramic and chrome with fabric shades and diffused illumination.

This interplay is particularly relevant to contemporary interiors, where lighting needs to complement architectural finishes, furniture and natural materials without overwhelming the space.

Kaku demonstrates this balance through its crisp geometric form and textured cotton fabric shades. Its distinctive table lamp incorporates two light sources, one within the base and another inside the shade, creating depth through contrasting layers of illumination. The result is a design that feels architectural while delivering a softer, more atmospheric quality of light.

For interiors that call for a more organic expression, Blossom introduces a delicate, flower-inspired silhouette. Its hand-blown polymer construction creates a paper-like texture, allowing light to filter through the layered form. When illuminated, it casts subtle shadows that bring movement and visual interest to the surrounding space.

Creating warmth through layered lighting

The most inviting interiors rarely rely on a single source of light. Instead, a combination of ambient, task and accent lighting creates flexibility throughout the day, adapting to different activities and moods.

In living spaces, table and floor lamps can introduce softer pools of light alongside the main illumination, helping to define seating areas and create a more intimate setting. In hospitality environments, this approach can bring a sense of warmth and refinement, while in build-to-rent schemes, it offers opportunities to create residential character across living spaces and shared amenities.

Our AW26 collection offers a variety of forms and finishes to support this approach. Kabocha combines rounded proportions with retro-influenced fabric textures, while Drum pairs cylindrical shades with marble bases and black metal detailing. Each brings a distinct character to an interior, allowing lighting to complement the wider material palette.

The Dawn family introduces further versatility through ceramic and marble bases. Designed in larger proportions, Dawn floor lamp offers a considered focal point for expansive living areas, particularly when paired with generous sofas and complementary furnishings.

Designing a complete interior

Lighting is most effective when considered alongside the wider interior scheme. The relationship between a lamp, its surrounding furniture and the materials within a room can influence how cohesive the finished space feels.

We bring furniture, lighting, rugs and accessories together to create interiors that feel balanced and complete. Our AW26 collection supports this approach, with designs that work individually as statement pieces or collectively as part of a considered lighting scheme.

Oslo, which builds on the popularity of our Stockholm lamp, introduces a fabric shade in place of glass, bringing a softer expression to its familiar form. Available in multiple sizes and material combinations, it offers flexibility across different settings, from intimate residential spaces to larger hospitality interiors.

For architects, interior designers and developers, these details provide opportunities to create spaces with a consistent design language while responding to the practical requirements of each environment.

Our new lighting collection reflects a distinctly Scandinavian understanding of how light shapes everyday living. Through considered proportions, tactile materials and layered illumination, each design contributes to an interior that feels warmer, more inviting and thoughtfully resolved.

Whether introducing a focal point to a living area or creating a softer atmosphere across a hospitality setting, the right lighting can make a meaningful difference to how a space is experienced.
