# Luxurious Illuminated Furniture These Lee Broom Designs are Bright By Josh Triantafilou | Published 2012-04-14 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lee-broom References: [dezeen](http://www.dezeen.com/2008/09/09/new-rough-diamond-collection-by-lee-broom/) & [leebroom](http://www.leebroom.com/) Designer Lee Broom is certainly aware of the principles of form and function. However, when it comes to [concept designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/drawing-series), function need not be the paramount concern. Whether or not one would like to lounge around in one of the designer's creations is beside the point. The [illuminated furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/home-illumination) is meant to realize an idea rather than bog itself down with practical concerns. Although, there are a few handy features of Broom's work. Have you ever woken up in the middle of the night, only to stub your toe on some piece of lame, non-lit furniture? Well, these pieces will prevent that. In all seriousness, the designs are interesting. They infuse old and traditional styles with [sleek and contemporary sensibilities](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modular-lighting-instruments). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.8/10 - Popularity: 91% | Activity: 76% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/furniture) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Illuminated Furniture:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Designing illuminated furniture that combines traditional styles with contemporary sensibilities. - **Concept Designs:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Creating concept designs that prioritize ideas and aesthetic appeal over practical concerns. - **Functional Aesthetics:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Developing furniture designs that balance both functionality and visual appeal. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Furniture Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Exploring new possibilities in illuminated furniture design and manufacturing. - **Interior Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Incorporating illuminated furniture into innovative interior design concepts and projects. - **Home Decor:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Creating innovative illuminated furniture pieces for enhancing home decor aesthetics. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Light-Inspired Furniture Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/divine-inspiration.md) - [Antique Lighting Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lee-broom-1.md) - [Mesmerizing Bright Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/draga-aurel1.md) - [Modular Mood Seating](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lumen-chair.md) - [Illuminated Modern Side Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lumera.md) - [Illuminating Home Display Pedestals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/welcome-decor-piece.md) - [Crystalline Acrylic Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/draga-aurel-flare-collection.md) - [Ultra-Chic Sculptural Lighting Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculptural-lighting-design.md) - [Statement Contemporary Lighting](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/filigrana-6.md)
