Wall lamps include devices that are installed on a vertical surface. They have a specific fastening system that is not suitable for placement on the ceiling. The body of the wall lamp can be made in various variations. In some models, the ceiling lights are pressed against the wall. Such devices have a modest design and high functionality. The devices are used for placement in offices, hospitals and other places with a large crowd of people.

Lighting devices that are attached using a suspension or bracket are called sconces. They differ from other types of lamps. The devices are intended for creating directional or diffuse lighting. Depending on which lampshade is chosen, the room will be illuminated differently. The lamp can be attached to the wall regardless of the height of the ceiling - you can install the device in any part of the wall. Wall lamps help to increase the illumination in a specific part of the room or highlight a certain element of the decor.

How to fix a wall lamp

Designers suggest using some rules when fixing devices on the wall. The optimal height is about two meters from the floor, slightly higher than human height. In this case, the light will spread throughout the room. For more light, you can place several lamps around the perimeter of the room.

If you want to create an illumination effect, you can fix the lamp closer to the ceiling. In this case, the room will be filled with pleasant and bright light. This method has been known since the past centuries, when many candlesticks with lighted candles were placed under the ceiling in ballrooms.
