For a classy, yet delicate tone with floral accents and softened colors, you might want to look for some torchiere style goose neck floor lamps.

For a contemporary look, why not consider some brass or gunmetal adjustable style goose neck lamps? These lamps will stand out and make a nice statement in any contemporary room and you can always simply adjust the neck of the lamp to shine the light wherever you like.

You can easily place one behind a couch and angle it to shine the light exactly where you can sit and read. And these goose neck style of lamps are not only great for saving space, but also they look great as well.
