Dramatic ceiling fixtures like chandeliers may take center stage and catch the eye first, but they’re far from the only way to bring light and elegance to a space. Wall lights open up endless aesthetic possibilities, empowering you to make every room as functional as it is beautiful. Explore various types of wall lights below.
Wall Sconces
These versatile fixtures are attached flush to the wall, and can provide both functional and decorative illumination. Consider them for:
Hallways and corridors, using them to illuminate narrow spaces while serving as subtle decoration elements. Living rooms, where they can provide ambient lighting or highlight artwork or other architectural features. Bedrooms, installed beside the bed as a reading light or for general illumination, freeing up space on nightstands. Bathrooms, positioned on either side of the mirror to provide balanced lighting for grooming. There are also sconces specifically designed to cast warm, pleasing light over the bathtub. Dining rooms, adding ambiance and highlighting points of interest, such as buffets or accent walls. Entryways and foyers, where they can bring warmth to the atmosphere while making it easier to find those keys.
Swing Arm Wall Lights
Swing arm wall lights feature an adjustable arm that can pivot, extend, retract, and swing in various directions. This allows for flexible positioning, making it easy to direct light exactly where you need it. Consider them for:
Bedrooms, used as bedside lamps, freeing up space on nightstands and allowing for adjustable reading light. Living rooms, positioned next to seating areas or over couches for reading or ambient lighting. Home offices, mounted above or beside the desk to provide adjustable task lighting. Kitchens, installed above countertops or near prep areas to provide targeted light for various culinary tasks. Bathrooms, placed beside mirrors to offer flexible lighting for grooming. Reading nooks, creating a cozy and well-lit space for concentration.
Picture Lights
Picture lights typically consist of a narrow fixture with a curved arm that extends outward, ending in a shade or housing designed to direct and diffuse the light onto a picture or artwork mounted on the wall. This not only highlights that point of visual interest, but it also contributes to a textured and layered lighting atmosphere.
Library Lights
These fixtures, also known as library lamps or bookshelf lights, are specialized lighting fixtures designed to illuminate bookshelves, reading areas, and workspaces. They’re ideal for elevating the functionality and aesthetic of home libraries, offices, and study rooms.
