Wall lamps

Designer wall lights and sconces: accent light and atmosphere

Wall lights work differently from central sources: they shape light horizontally, create depth and sculpt the mood with grazing, indirect or accent beams. Flanking a bed, they replace or complement the bedside lamp and free up the nightstand; along a hallway they punctuate the wall with rhythm; in the living room they add a warm, enveloping glow that ceiling lights alone cannot provide. The choice depends on the diffuser direction: upward for a soft wash, downward for reading, bidirectional for balanced illumination.

The Animosi selection features sconces from the most important design brands, in metal, glass, ceramic and composite materials, for every style and budget. To complete a bedroom composition, pair a wall light with a designer table lamp on the nightstand or a pendant light above the bed.
