Why Natural Materials Feel Right in Winter

13 November 2026

Natural materials such as wood and marble feel right in winter because they bring the outdoors inside, adding warmth and character as we spend more time at home. Here's how to style them with Glass Bue, Skipper and Kanna lights.

As the temperature drops and skies become greyer, there’s nothing more comforting than being warm and cosy at home, so it’s important to get our surroundings just right.

While getting fresh air in the daylight will always be integral to feeling better in the winter months, curating our interiors by bringing a touch of the outside in can also have a positive impact on our wellbeing.

Natural materials, in particular, can add character and warmth to a space, immediately helping it feel more comforting. Balance hard with soft for extra depth; think wooden floors topped with a wool rug, or introduce softer shapes such as curved accessories to create an inviting flow.

Lighting fixtures such as our Glass Bue Range offer much more than a soft, diffused glow, with its dome shape and frosted glass appearance. Available in a range of fixtures, add sculptural elegance to your home with a curved Stem Wall Light or a gentle, ambient light over a kitchen island with the Linear Trio design. Offering beautiful reflections throughout the daytime, the organic shape of Glass Bue adds comforting visual interest to the space, whether night or day.

Wood and marble: Skipper Marble Floor Light

When it comes to adding depth and warmth to a space, wood has long been synonymous with creating just the right atmosphere. Whether used as flooring, furniture or fixtures, the character and colour of wood is a wonderful antidote to the colder months.

Create extra drama on gloomy winter days with our Skipper Marble Floor Light; the looping timber petals, handcrafted from traditional oak, walnut or ash wood, make a statement regardless of the time of day. As the lights go on, it radiates through the intricate wooden silhouette, producing beautifully contrasting shadows across your home. Sitting upon a marble lamp base, the design demonstrates how natural materials can be paired beautifully together to create a considered balance of texture, tone and character.

Warm wood grain: Kanna Marble Table Light

Cold winter afternoons and evenings are often calling out for a softly lit table lamp. Perfect for cosy corners, bedside tables and welcoming hallways, our Kanna Marble Table Light radiates warmth through its organic wooden grain, offering a gentle reminder of the outdoors as we retreat inside.
