Desert Glow
Lighting ideas inspired by desert, steppe & savannahSoft natural tones, warm materials and flowing light: the current living trend picks up on the tranquil beauty of the desert, steppe and savannah. Colour worlds of sand, soft white, terracotta, ochre and rusty red merge with olive nuances and subtle shades of blue on the horizon. The result is a harmonious atmosphere full of depth, serenity and natural warmth. Lights made of rattan, linen, ceramic and metal create a feeling of living that slows you down - like looking far into the distance.
Three facts
about the Desert Glow trend)
As if touched by the sun: The colour palette of Desert Glow tells of endless sand dunes, shimmering light and warm horizons. Soft nuances of sand, ochre and terracotta merge with golden reflections - like the last light of a long day in the desert. This creates a look that bathes rooms in a calm, warm glow.

Desert Glow captures the magic of vast landscapes - the tranquillity that spreads when you look into the distance. Warm white colour temperatures (<3,300 Kelvin) create places of retreat - as soft light in the living room in the evening, as relaxed lighting in the bedroom or as a calm counterpoint in the home office.

Raw wood, soft linen, textured ceramics and woven rattan are reminiscent of the originality of the steppe and savannah. This is accompanied by fine, structured light patterns - like rays of sunlight dancing across the landscape. This interplay of naturalness and delicate lustre brings rooms to life.

Ceiling and pendant lights in desert glow style
Airy elegance for open-plan roomsPendant lights bring the vastness of the landscape directly into the home. Light, organic shapes and woven umbrellas made of rattan or raffia are reminiscent of sun-dried savannah grasses. Warm colours such as ochre and terracotta reflect the power of the earth and create a cosy ambience. The pendant lights above the dining table are particularly effective as an unmissable, central highlight and can also be arranged in groups to create modern, lively lighting effects. They also create flowing transitions in open-plan kitchens that perfectly combine lightness and warmth.

Table lamps in the style of Desert Glow
Atmospheric islands of lightTable lamps set specific accents and bring the natural colours of the desert, steppe and savannah to eye level. Ceramic feet in sand and brown tones have an original and authentic look, while fabric and linen shades gently diffuse the light. This makes these light objects ideal for sideboards and chests of drawers, bedside tables for a relaxed evening mood or on window sills as decorative highlights. Combined with wood, stone or natural textiles, small oases of calm are created with great effect.

Floor lamps with desert glow flair
Create relaxed retreatsSlim floor lamps pick up on the filigree verticality of steppe grasses. Fine metal frames meet natural shades and create a perfect balance between lightness and stability. Warm, dimmed light transforms any room into a feel-good zone. They create a relaxed atmosphere in reading corners and are a soft source of light in living areas and quiet zones where you can switch off completely. Dimmable light sources also ensure maximum ambience - just like the changing light in nature.

Must-haves for the look are ceramic vases and bowls in organic shapes, textiles made of linen or cotton, elements made of wood, raffia and rattan as well as dried flowers and grasses for an authentic savannah feeling. Fine blue accents, on the other hand, create fresh contrasts and are reminiscent of the wide open sky.

Expert tip
Expressive lights that perfectly convey the desert glow style - that's exactly how I would do it. However, people often underestimate how powerful the 'invisible', but nevertheless perceptible, can be. The ambience that you don't even know where it comes from at first. I'm talking about indirect lighting, of course - hidden LED strips that give the room exactly that feeling of desert sand and savannah sky thanks to the colour change. Behind furniture, under sideboards or behind curtains, such indirect light sources are worth their weight in gold. Because even in nature, light rarely comes head-on - it brushes over dunes, refracts in dust and lies softly in the air. This is exactly the effect you create with indirect lighting.
