Redondo Wall Mounted Light Fixture in Black by Steel Lighting Co.

Barn lights have been in existence since the inception of barns. Dark and moonless nights called for lighting to lead the way when the need arises — and so entered barn lighting in all its vintage glory. What was once reserved for countryside barns and farmhouses has found its way into suburban and urban homes, modern farmhouses, offices, shops, and restaurants. Ultimately, barn lighting has made a glorious comeback and has become a staple in farmhouse-style lighting.

Today’s barn fixtures are a refined version of vintage barn lighting. And these fixtures retain the rustic touch that makes barn lights oh-so-appealing. The upgraded lighting for modern farmhouses combines the best of both worlds to deliver lighting that illuminates, beautify, and impresses. While traditional barn lights prioritized functionality and practicality over aesthetics, contemporary barn lighting integrates all three elements for convenience and appeal.

 

Old Meets New in Realistic Barn Lighting

Given its rustic and functional charm, it is no wonder that classic barn lights are now sought-after in modern farmhouse décor.  Both traditional and contemporary barn lights feature a metal shade in an industrial style.

Modern rustic indoor and outdoor barn lights maintain a nostalgic connection to the past. They are elegantly designed, understated, and exude old-fashioned yet trendy allure.  In a world where ‘virtuality’ has become the order of the day, these lights are shockingly real.

So, if you crave the traditional feel of rustic lighting without losing touch with contemporary lighting and reality, you should consider barn lights!
