Best White Floor Lamps In 2025 And How To Style Them

If you've followed our blog for a while, you know how much we love floor lamps. There is something really special about them and the way they can blend in with the rest of the decor while still looking great as standalone pieces.

And white? White is forever elegant and timeless. It can work with rich colors or with a black/gray aesthetic.

So for this post, we decided to gather some of our top picks/best-sellers for white floor lamps.

Let's go through them one by one but first, let's see some design tips and tricks for your new white floor lamp.

How to style white floor lamps

Here are some fun and practical tips to help you make the most of your white floor lamp:

1. Match the vibe of the room
White lamps are incredibly versatile, but their look can vary depending on the style of the room.

• For minimalist spaces, pair your white lamp with clean lines, neutral tones, and sleek furniture. Think Scandinavian chic.
• In a boho or eclectic room, use your lamp as a neutral anchor against colorful rugs, bold throw pillows, or textured wall hangings.
• For a modern farmhouse look, set it next to rustic wooden furniture or shiplap walls.

2. Use it as a focal point or blend it in
If your room is neutral, a white lamp can be a subtle piece that blends in. Pair it with a bold lampshade or keep it sleek with white-on-white tones. For brighter spaces, keep the lamp’s color consistent with other white or light-colored elements, like curtains or area rugs.

3. Play with textures and layers
A lamp with a glossy finish feels modern, while a matte or textured white lamp leans more classic or rustic. Surround it with soft throws, textured furniture, or patterned area rugs to add depth.

4. Light placement matters
Tall floor lamps are excellent for filling vertical space in a room.

• Next to the sofa: Use the lamp for activities you perform on the sofa. Make sure that the height is appropriate! The lamp should be tall enough so the light source sits slightly above eye level when you're seated. This typically means the bottom of the lampshade is around 42 to 48 inches from the floor.
• In a bedroom corner: Place it near a full-length mirror or by an armchair.
• In a dining space: Position it near a sideboard with warm color temperatures which are ideal for meals.

5. Swap or customize the lampshade
A white floor lamp doesn’t always have to wear all white! Try swapping out the lampshade for one in a fun pattern, metallic tones, or bold colors. For a DIY touch, paint or wrap the lampshade in fabric that ties into your room's theme.

6. Pair it with complementary decor
To balance the visual weight of your lamp, add other white accents throughout the space. Think white picture frames, vases, or small decor pieces. This creates a cohesive look without overwhelming the room.

7. Use lighting to set the tone
The beauty of a white floor lamp lies in its adaptability. Use warm-toned bulbs for cozy evening vibes or bright daylight bulbs to make the space feel airy and clean.

Alright, now let's take a look at the stars of the show!

Best white floor lamps

1. Inara Floor Lamp

The Inara modern floor lamp is all white and it is a big statement piece that can be used in the corner of your living room or next to the sofa if you don't have a coffee table.

The smaller versions can also be used in the bedroom, as you don't necessarily need strong focal points in the bedroom. You want something cozier and less distracting.

Inspired by mid-century modern design, this floor lamp has a unique way of blending subtlety with drama.

2. Raito Floor Lamp

Inspired by traditional Japanese design (you can read more about it here), this floor lamp has a special way of being a focal point without drawing too much attention away from the rest of your decor.

Each lamp is carefully handcrafted in a workshop using bamboo rods and traditional Japanese washi paper known as shoji. The unique lampshade design transforms the cool, direct light from the source into a warm and inviting glow. With its artistic yet minimalist aesthetic, this lamp effortlessly combines traditional craftsmanship with modern style.

3. Sunshade Floor Lamp

This all-white floor lamp creates the vertical symmetry we talked about effortlessly. It has an acrylic lampshade with an aluminum body to give it that modern look.

The Sunshade floor lamp fits best contemporary spaces where focus is a priority, such as a nice home office or even the kitchen!

4. Warnda Floor Lamp

Also inspired by traditional Japanese design and the Zen philosophy, the Warnda floor lamp is a statement piece like no other. It should be used as an accent light in already minimal and Scandinavian-type homes, although it also works well in industrial and farmhouse-style houses.

As you can tell, this is more like a piece of light art rather than simply a floor lamp. If you do buy it, use it in the living room or bedroom for the best effect (meaning relaxation).

5. Anais Floor Lamp

Finally, our top 5 spot is held by the Anais floor lamp, a majestic centerpiece that is very grand but somewhat minimal at the same time. This floor lamp is meant for the living room and you should only use it if you want to make a big statement.

It comes in two sizes - 86.6 inches (220 cm) and 98.4 inches (250 cm) tall, so choose carefully before you make your decision.

Because this lamp is so big, it should not be used with other grand lighting fixtures such as chandeliers, as your space can end up looking tacky and off-putting.

Wrapping up

I have to say, white floor lamps have completely won me over. They’re like that effortlessly chic friend who can pull off any look, whether they’re rocking a cozy sweater or a sleek evening gown. That’s what these lamps do for your space - they adapt, elevate, and quietly steal the show without ever demanding too much attention.

I love how they’re the ultimate “blank canvas” in decor. Whether you want your room to feel calm and serene or bold and modern, a white floor lamp can make it happen. And the best part? You don’t have to be an interior design pro to get it right. Swapping a shade, moving it to a new corner, or pairing it with different textures can give your whole room a fresh vibe.

So if you’re on the fence, I say go for it. White floor lamps are a very safe choice that can blend in almost anywhere and brighten up your space without too much fuss.
