What style is right for my room?
Your personal style and preference will dictate, we have selection that will cater for all:
Wall washer – these will sit close to the wall and usually have a diffuser at the base or the top of the light. This produces the effect of illuminating your wall with light, rather than there being a single beam.
Sconce – typically a candelabra design where the light is usually directed upwards.
Single – as the name suggests, a wall light with a single source of light.
Double – a light with two arms/light sources.
Picture light – perfect for showing off your favourite paintings and prints.
