For me, the mere sight of a disco ball is enough to send dopamine levels soaring.
Whether you’re in the mood to party or not, the vision of light bouncing off hundreds of tiny mirrored tiles is enough to put a spring in anyone’s step.
They don’t just belong in skating rinks, nightclubs, and the Royal Albert Hall. Bringing the look to your home is an easy way to add fun and inject lightness into your space. All hail, the era of the domesticated disco ball.
They can be displayed in any room of the house, but the kitchen and bathroom are some of our favourite spaces, thanks to their unexpectedness. The small detail can turn a drab corner of the home into a truly fabulous one.
While traditional mirror balls need to be suspended securely from the ceiling, there are plenty of other designs and styles that can be positioned on flat surfaces like bookshelves, coffee tables and bedside cabinets.
There’s just one rule: for a disco ball to truly work its magic, it needs a steady source of light. It can be daylight or spotlights; any source of illumination to make the sphere sparkle. Movement is also a nice extra and some ceiling mirror balls come with a motor to keep the ball turning. Others need a simple flick to send light ricocheting around the room.
Whatever you choose, when the light hits those mirrors just right and magic bursts across the room, you’ll understand what all the hype is about.
If you’re looking to add personality to your interiors, we’ve rounded up the best disco balls for your home. From Eurovision-ready orbs to left-field designs, here are the best we’ve seen.
