Indoor Wall Lights

Adjustable wall lights flex with the way a room is used – arm out for reading, arm tucked back for ambient glow, head angled where the light is needed. Our collection includes Anglepoise wall lights, Vitra and Flos articulated designs, and traditional swing-arm styles in matte chrome, brass, black and other timeless finishes, ideal for bedrooms, sitting rooms and reading corners.

    Beside beds (where they double as reading and ambient lighting), beside armchairs and sofas in lieu of a floor lamp, and over a workspace. The articulating arm means the light position can shift as the room's use shifts – a feature fixed wall lights can't match. They're particularly useful in tighter bedrooms where a bedside table can't fit a lamp.

    Beside a bed, mount at 1.1-1.3m from the floor so the light falls on the page when reading sitting up. Beside an armchair, mount at 1.4-1.5m to put the bottom of the shade at standing eye level when extended. Standardise the height across pairs in the same room for visual consistency.

    Hardwired is the cleaner finish for permanent rooms. Plug-in (with a cable that runs down to a socket) is the practical choice in rented homes or where wiring isn't accessible. The trailing cable can be hidden behind a bedside table or framed with cable trunking, but it'll never be as clean as a hardwired connection.

    Warm-white LED at 600-1,000 lumens (around 50-75W equivalent) gives enough light for sustained reading. Choose dimmable bulbs and pair with a dimmable wall switch or in-line dimmer so the same fitting can drop to ambient mode in the evening. Avoid bulbs with very narrow beams; reading lights work better with broader spread.

      Contemporary Wall Light Ideas For A Living Room
      Bridging the gap between ceiling lights and table lamps, contemporary wall lights for living rooms are a crucial part of layering a scheme, working to make your spaces feel cosier and bigger. Not only that, but they can be used to cleverly highlight architectural features and cherished artworks, while the boldest designs can be iconic masterpieces in their own right. Better still, they can help to zone rooms, whether marking out a reading corner or a bar area. In particular, a living room requires layers of lights for dialling up and down the ambience as and when required, from entertaining guests to reading a book and watching TV. Here, we explore how you can embrace contemporary wall lights for living rooms, along with plenty of bright ideas. Use lighting to highlight a feature From panelling to artwork, directional lighting can shine a whole new light on the things you love most about a space, so consider contemporary wall lights to bring out architectural features and cherished belongings. Part of our new collection, the Milton features an extendable arm and adjustable head that mean you can pick out any details, while a glamorous brass finish and Mid-Century aesthetic makes it a real conversation-starter. Alternatively, the linear form of the Saber is perfect for casting a warm glow above or beneath a picture frame with an LED light that can be rotated 180 degrees. Otherwise, how about a pair of Mooon LED wall lights by Fermob either side of a period fireplace or piece of furniture? Use lighting to create a cosy corner or dedicated reading nook Despite what you may think, it’s not only a strategically-placed floor light or table lamp that can help to create a dedicated reading nook. In fact, wall lights can be your best friend when it comes to a cosy corner, so long as the style is adjustable for directing the light to assist with turning the pages of your next big read. You can either stick with the same style you have elsewhere in the space or opt for something altogether different if your corner is in a secluded part of the room to designate it as a separate zone. We particularly love the traditional styling of the Type 80 – a wall-mounted reinterpretation of the classic desk lamp by beloved British brand Anglepoise – which is perfect for angling over your favourite armchair. More contemporary is the Beat wall light by none other than Tom Dixon with a simple and structural design that’s both adjustable and dimmable for creating the perfect reading environment. Use lighting to make a statement Unusual contemporary wall lights can be used to make a splash without the need for anything else. Look to statement designs, noteworthy finishes and interesting features for something that will really pop on the wall and make for a talking point in your living room. Case in point is the Neap wall light by Tom Raffield, cleverly steam-bent from sustainably-sourced oak and walnut and finished with gleaming brass fixtures. Inspired by the rugged Cornish coast, it shines light both upwards and downwards, while creating a relaxing and calming ambience. Elsewhere, the Melt by Tom Dixon exemplifies the British designer’s innovative style with a stand-out copper design that’s squashed, squeezed, distorted and moulded into a beautiful ‘blob’ for either the wall or ceiling. While producing truly exceptional lighting, it boasts a shimmering mirrored finish when not in use, making for a work of art during the day. Finally, what about the Bloom from Kartell? The handcrafted piece conceals the light within a bulbous structure of polycarbonate flowers with intricate levels of detail imitating cut-glass crystal. It’s a thing of pure beauty. We’d suggest mounting one either side of a dazzling mirror to add an artful flourish to your space. More tips and ideas for lighting in your contemporary living room Consider the colour for contemporary wall lights indoors, from black and grey to white and glass. Black adds an industrial element; grey is a versatile and timeless shade for any space; white makes rooms feel modern; and glass adds a touch of glamour. Invest in multiples of the same style throughout your living room to create a consistent and coherent theme. Ditch a central ceiling light in favour of wall lights. They will make the ceiling look higher – a clever trick of the eye – as long as the light is directed upwards to cast a vertical glow. Install the lights higher up the wall than you usually would, too. Get inspired by more contemporary wall light ideas for a living room with the rest of the designs in our collection.

This finish means the smoked glass pendant lights look mirrored when switched off and more translucent when illuminated. Parison Smoked Glass Pendant Lights Cheshire Architects for Resident This smoked glass ceiling light has a refined ombré effect that makes it stand out from other lighting. It’s beautifully mouth-blown by skilled glassmakers with a raw rim. By leaving the rim unfinished, the light has a rougher edge that keeps it looking modern. We love how the light is used here to illuminate a crisp white corridor, thanks to the ombré effect it makes the ceilings look even higher. Honey Smoked Glass Pendant Light Guillaume Delvigne for Heal’s Horizontal ribbed lines and a cylindrical silhouette mimic the shape of a beehive and inspired the Honey Pendant Light’s name. The glass ridges help to capture the bulb’s glow and soften it, so it casts a warm light.

Reveal LED Smoked Glass Pendant Lights Silje Nesdal for Northern Reveal is one of the most contemporary smoked glass ceiling lights in our selection. The pale colours of dawn seen on the Norwegian coast inspired this design.

Instead of being illuminated by a bulb, the smoked glass light shade houses a horizontal LED module. This lends is an innovative, modern aesthetic. Bloom Smoked Glass Pendant Light Tim Rundle for Resident Paper lanterns and the way they fly through the air inspired Tim Rundle’s Bloom Pendant Light.

This also highlights the unique pattern created by the steel mesh inner and casts a pool of light downward.

Soap Pendant Light Ota Svoboda for Bomma This smoked glass light shade really stands out because of its craftsmanship. Each one is freely blown from glass without using a mould, this creates an organic shape that is different from one light to the next. The lamp’s design was inspired by the every-changing shape of soap bubbles. To strengthen the similarity, the pendant light has an iridescent finish achieved through a unique metallisation process. Anchor Smoked Glass Pendant Lights Timothy Oulton As part of Timothy Oulton’s Noble Souls collection, the Anchor Pendant Light was designed to showcase ancient crafts.

Grace Smoked Glass Pendant Lights Heal's The exclusive Grace Pendant Light radiates the sophisticated style typical of 1960s glassware. It’s accented with a modern twist in the form of its slanted base, allowing light to escape from the base. The addition of smoked and coloured glass finishes sets the mood and helps to create a warm glow when illuminated. Colour is added to the glass whilst it is being blown, meaning the hue won’t fade or scratch. Bubble Smoked Glass Pendant Light Heal's The Bubble Pendant Light is perfect if you’re looking for a modern smoked glass lamp with a different. This exclusive Heal’s light is hand-blown using smoked glass and is hand-finished with bubble detailing so each finish is subtly different. When illuminated, the bubbles diffuse the light’s glow even further to create a textural effect. Bolha Pendant Light Heal's This contemporary glass pendant light is named after the Portuguese word for ‘bubble’ thanks to its bubble-like finish. Like bubbles, each Bolha Pendant Light is unique with the dimples differing slightly on each piece.
