Why Choose Wall Lights?
Wall lights can be the main source of lighting in modern homes, due to new builds having low ceilings. They can light up a gloomy corner or highlight a feature such as a chimney breast. They offer a secondary source of subtle light to complement the main lighting in a room.
- Versatile Choices: Perfect for task, accent, or ambient lighting in any room, from bedrooms to hallways and living rooms and dining rooms too.
- Diverse Designs: We offer modern, traditional, classic and rustic styles, including wall washers, plug in and crystal options.
- Energy Efficiency: Almost all of our fittings support LED bulbs, providing cost-effective and long-lasting performance.
- Space-Saving Style: Enhances walls without occupying floor space, ideal for compact or busy areas.
Selecting the Perfect Wall Light
Choosing the perfect wall light from our collection enhances your home’s style and functionality.
- Purpose and Placement: Select brighter task lighting for areas like alongside mirrors or for reading, or ambient background lighting for living areas and hallways. Try and place them at eye level, 1.5–1.8 m above the floor, for optimal effect.
- Lighting Needs: Choose bright wall lights or wall washers when no central light is used, and dimmable softer lighting for enhanced ambience and living areas.
- Bulb Compatibility: Always use LED bulbs for energy efficiency, long life and energy saving. Choose warm white for living areas and bedrooms and daylight white for kitchen task areas.
- Style and Finish: Match your existing style using finishes like chrome, brass, or matte black to match your decor, as wall lights add both function and aesthetic appeal.
- Installation: Ensure fixtures meet electrical requirements. We recommend professional installation by a registered electrician. Click here to find one near you.
