Why choose to install a wall lamp  

Design wall lamps can evenly illuminate the entire room thanks to diffused light, stylishly integrating with the surrounding decor. Their often compact size and ease of installation make them suitable even for small spaces; more discreet than other types of lamps, such as pendant lamps, they can also serve as accent lights to highlight certain elements of the room or furniture, such as paintings, photographs, and artworks. 

We can also pair a modern wall lamp with a table lamp or a floor lamp, combining different light sources upwards and downwards. This is a popular choice for spaces like the kitchen or living room, as it allows for the combination of different light points. 

Where to place wall lamps  

Modern wall sconces are very well suited to a variety of different environments, starting with hallways: the fact that they are placed directly on the wall allows for significant space-saving in small or narrow spaces. Additionally, they can serve as accent lights to optimally illuminate certain corners of the house, such as those dedicated to reading, studying, or working. The fact that they are ideal as focused lights also makes them great in the bedroom: placing them above the nightstand allows us to enjoy the right lighting as an alternative to a table lamp.  

At what height to place wall lamps?  

Wall lamps should be placed at a height that allows for adequate room lighting: placing them too high would significantly dampen the light emitted by the lamp. On the other hand, placing them too low could aesthetically interfere with the surrounding decor. A sconce should be placed at least 1.80 meters from the ground; in particularly large living rooms, it can go up to 2 meters or even higher.  

Lighting a room with a low ceiling with wall lamps  

When a room has a ceiling lower than two meters, it is necessary to think of lighting that adapts to the available spaces: a pendant lamp, for example, requires greater height. Wall lamps, on the other hand, are perfect for environments with limited height: thanks to their discreet size, they allow for the preservation of floor space. Additionally, when a room has a low ceiling, lighting the walls visually enlarges the spaces, especially when playing with upward and downward lighting. A wall lamp like Foglio by Tobia Scarpa is perfect for this type of solution.
