Remember those big lights bucket like lamps pouring out light from above? The conventional mode of lighting just took a very unconventional form. These days, they are used to illuminate the room bottom up, filling the entire space with soft romantic glow. The effect is totally mesmerizing as light travels upwards, embracing the walls and trying to graze through the ceiling.
