The Printed Drumshade Pendants by JEFDESIGNS, a design studio based in Oregon, United States, and run by Joe Futschik, look like something that belongs in the lobby of a luxury boutique hotel. Inspired by nature and full of contemporary vibrancy, each lampshade adds a special albeit specific ambiance to a living space. From warm autumn leaves to cool abstract stripes, the patterns are diverse and modern.

Made out of fabric, the Printed Drumshade Pendants by JEFDESIGNS marry the designers [love of textiles and lighting](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lantern-collection). For years, Futschik spent time working on each separately. By combining his expertise in both departments, he has created a collection of [ceiling light fixtures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/warp-lamp) that will appeal to many, especially those who appreciate bold, bright graphics.
