Wall directional lights

In order to create modern and functional lighting in rooms of any purpose, the main lighting system should always be supplemented with additional lighting devices. One of these are directional wall lights. With the help of these lamps, it is possible to create so-called accent lighting in interior spaces and in this way to illuminate interior details worthy of special attention, works of art decorating the walls, bookshelves, etc. in an original way. These are small, but very functional wall lamps with its help, it is possible to create a cozy home environment, a relaxing atmosphere, a non-traditional light scattering effect and at the same time avoid the need for constant use of the main lighting system.

However, the biggest advantage, which is provided by any type of wall-mounted directional lights - the ability to adjust the light flow, in other words, direct it in the desired direction. Almost all wall-mounted directional lights have an adjustable housing, which allows you to conveniently adjust the flow of light, direct it down, up or in any other direction. For this reason, these luminaires prove themselves in basically any environment where there is a need for a universal, easily adaptable and easily controlled light source.

In the range of the light center, every customer is waiting wide and contrasting variety of directional wall lights. We cooperate with the best manufacturers of lamps from different countries of the world, so our offer of lamps truly reflects global fashion trends and always delights with the highest quality. A large supply of lamps provides unrestricted freedom of choice, but at the same time, it makes the selection process a little more difficult. Let's briefly discuss in which cases it is recommended to choose wall-mounted directional lights and how to easily choose the optimal model of such a light.

Thanks to the function of directing the light flow, the directional wall lights stand out for their extremely wide application possibilities. These lamps can be used:

• To highlight important interior details. Walls are an indoor area that is often decorated with various works of art, photos, decorative interior accents, etc. The main lighting systems usually illuminate the entire space of the room evenly, so the unique accents of the interior remain obscured. Integrating a directional wall light above a picture or other important interior detail creates a unique light scattering effect that draws attention to exceptional interior elements.
• For tasks requiring concentrated lighting. Wall-mounted directional lights provide high-quality illumination of any work surface. These lighting devices can be installed above the work desk, kitchen worktop or any other place where tasks requiring concentrated lighting are performed.
• To create an unusual light scattering effect. Luminaires with a direction adjustment function help to create a very unconventional light scattering effect. When these lighting devices are tilted at a certain angle, an interesting play of light and shadow is created on the wall, which really enriches any interior.
• To form the main lighting system. Wall-mounted directional lights provide sufficiently concentrated light diffusion, so they can also be used as the main means of lighting in smaller spaces. These lamps are a very good choice for staircases that do not have natural light diffusion at all. Wall-mounted directional lights illuminate the entire stairwell in an original way. If necessary, their housing can be adjusted and conveniently illuminate all stairs, and if necessary, the lamp housing can be easily returned to its original position. As the main means of lighting, wall-mounted directional lights can also be used in rooms where you want to create the most comfortable, relaxing atmosphere, for example, in cafes, art galleries, bathrooms, massage parlors, etc.
• For outdoor lighting. Wall-mounted directional lights with technical parameters suitable for outdoor environments are also perfect for outdoor lighting purposes. With these lighting tools, you can emphasize non-standard facade solutions, illuminate the flora growing in the yard or highlight the outdoor recreation area. Wall lamps installed in the right place significantly expand the boundaries of the functionality of the courtyard spaces. Such light sources can easily be directed to a barbecue, a children's play area, a basketball court, etc. And this allows you to enjoy all the outdoor entertainment in the dark as well.

How to choose a wall directional light?

The selection of main and additional light sources is accompanied by slightly different rules. The most important things to consider when choosing directional wall lights are:

1. Wall lamp design. Wall-mounted directional lights are often used to highlight the most important interior details, so these lighting devices should be matched to the prevailing interior style in the room. The most common styles of directional lights are:
   • Modern directional wall lights. Such lighting devices are usually characterized by symmetry or sharp corners. Most of the time, such lamps have a neat, unobtrusive, but slightly more massive body. A great example of a modern lamp that you can find in the Light Center's assortment is the wall lamp TOP 1 Black. The lamp, which attracts a lot of interest from customers, is characterized by a black body and round shapes, which are perfect for both modern home interiors and innovative design office spaces. For those who avoid dark colors, we can also offer a white version of the same lamp. The wall lamp TOP 1 White is completely inconspicuous, as if it blends in with the walls of the room, but always ensures an impeccable light scattering effect.
   • Minimalist design lamps. Minimalist lamps are usually characterized by a restrained, fairly simple design. This type of lighting is a good and always safe choice in any interior.
   • Classic lamps. Classic-style directional wall lights are distinguished by impressive shapes, gilded details, etc. These types of lamps are timeless classics, but these light sources should be chosen responsibly, as they may look tasteless in some rooms.
   • Retro style wall lamps. Such lighting equipment often comes in expressive colors, such as rust or aged brass. These light sources are characterized by non-standard geometric shapes and other rather challenging design elements.
2. Number of light sources. Although directional wall lights provide the ability to direct the light flow, they usually do not have a very wide light distribution field. For this reason, it is usually necessary to invest not in one, but in several or even more lamps. Therefore, when choosing these lighting devices, it is always important to assess the area illuminated by the selected lamp and choose the appropriate amount of lamps accordingly.
3. Light color temperature. Both when planning to buy a lamp with an integrated light source and when buying a light source separately, it is extremely important to choose the optimal light color temperature, which is expressed in Kelvin. In order to create the most comfortable atmosphere, light sources with the lowest kelvins should be chosen, because they broadcast a cozier, warmer light. This category includes sources with an index of no more than 3000 kelvins. Similarly, to achieve the effect of cold, almost blue tones, you should choose a light source with 4000 Kelvin or more.
4. Optimum installation height of the luminaire. The ceiling of the room is located at the same or very similar height, so when choosing ceiling lights, you do not need to pay much attention to the installation height. The surface of the walls is located at extremely different heights, so it is very important to provide the optimal mounting point for wall lights. If you want to emphasize only certain interior accents, the lamps should be installed above them. If such lamps simply form additional lighting for the entire room, then the so-called rule of thirds should be used. According to this rule, the entire height of the walls should be divided into three equal parts. In this way, three levels of ceiling height are created in the imagination - lower, middle and upper. In order to properly illuminate the wall space, it is always recommended to install the directional wall light at the middle level of the ceiling height.
