Where to shop for the best lights in Singapore

Get lit.

Ask any interior designer and they'll tell you that lighting is integral to create the illusion of a bigger space. But, where can you get quality lights without breaking the bank in Singapore?

Well, we'll be shedding some light on that! From classic track lights to chic pendant lamps, these are the stores in Singapore that carry everything you could possibly want!

1. SOL LUMINAIRE | FOR THE STYLISH MINIMALIST

Sol Luminaire (previously known as Hiiga) aims to minimise the environmental impacts of traditional lighting through the use of LED lighting products, all without compromising on style - think sleek luminaires with a twist. Though there are distinctive updates made to these lights, they remain clean and polished, great options for minimalist interiors as a whole but also adaptable enough to work into any other home setting!

2. VERDE LIGHT | FOR THE BESPOKE ENTHUSIASTS AND THE ECO-CONSCIOUS

Lamp-making isn't the most environmentally friendly but Verde Light aims to change that.

The end result? A range of crafted pieces that are exquisite and organic, perfect for the modern-day contemporary homes! Psst, they even offer customisation options and a whopping 3-year warranty on your purchases.
