Once reserved only for dance floors, the disco ball is becoming one of the most joyful accessories for the home – and the kitchen is the perfect place to use it.

Kitchens are hardworking, practical spaces, but they are also where people gather, chat, cook, drink and entertain. A disco ball brings a sense of fun and occasion, catching the light beautifully and adding instant character without the commitment of colour, pattern or a full redesign.

British lifestyle brand Rex London has a range of disco balls and themed accessories to help homeowners embrace this joyful interiors move.

Candy Smith, Head Buyer at Rex London, said: “Disco balls bring real personality to a space, which is why they’re proving so popular in kitchens right now. Kitchens have become social hubs in the home, and a disco ball introduces a playful, almost party-like atmosphere that makes the room feel more relaxed and welcoming.

“Plus, when sunlight hits the mirrored surface, it scatters tiny reflections around the room, creating movement and light that can make the whole space feel more vibrant.”

In a bold move, Rex London is moving away from a traditional silver disco ball and is instead putting hot pink and striking gold in the spotlight.

Rex London’s pink disco balls, which are available in three sizes, bring instant atmosphere, adding colour, movement and a playful after-dark glow.

Their gold counterparts, which are also available in three different sizes – offer a more refined take on the disco trend, bringing warmth and a sense of joyful glamour into the home.

For those who want to harness the joy of the disco ball in other areas of the home, Rex London also offer a disco-ball inspired table lamp as well as a string of 10 hanging disco balls, ideal for a bedroom or around an alcove.

Rex London’s range of disco balls are available now, with prices starting at £6.95.
