Lighting trends for 2026
2026 will be a very interesting year for the world of interior lighting. For Novalux, a leader in lighting design, it is essential to interpret these emerging trends in order to offer cutting-edge products and ideas.
Here are the most significant directions that are redefining the way we light domestic and professional spaces.
Refined minimalism and discreet lighting
In 2026, minimalism remains a staple: lighting fixtures with essential design, clean lines, simple geometries, neutral colours.
This style focuses on the removal of excess and functional elegance, making light an integral part of the architecture and furnishings, rather than an “added” element. Minimalist lighting fixtures become almost invisible.
For Novalux, this means focusing on discreet, high-quality LED lamps and systems that can be easily integrated into any environment.


Smart Lighting and connectivity: the new frontier of light
The world of lighting is rapidly integrating technology. Among the macro themes of the year are sustainable transformation, smart connectivity and “living light”, i.e. light as a living element of environments. This means adjustable lighting systems that can be integrated into home automation, with remote control and automatic adaptation to usage scenarios and comfort requirements.
Novalux offers smart lamps, integrated LED systems and home automation solutions for those seeking practicality and flexibility without compromising on style.
Light as a furnishing element
Increasingly, lighting is not just a function: it becomes a design element, a furnishing accessory, an aesthetic protagonist. In 2026, we will see a return to organic shapes, delicate curves, rich materials and finishes that evoke craftsmanship and aesthetic care.
For Novalux, this has always meant offering lighting products that enhance spaces, not only illuminating them but also furnishing them.
