Choose black metal for the living room and hallway, white for the bedroom, and gold for an entryway or a luxurious headboard. All wall lamps in this selection are made of metal, available in IP20 to IP65 ratings depending on the room, and come in contemporary, modern, and industrial styles for our designer wall lamps for every space.
Why choose a metal wall lamp?
Metal is impact-resistant, retains its finish over time, and pairs well with other materials—aluminum, glass, or brass—without appearing heavy. The entire selection is made of metal, featuring contemporary, modern, and industrial styles. Whether in black, white, or gold, a metal wall lamp transcends trends and integrates perfectly into indoor wall lighting as well as IP65 outdoor applications.
Black metal wall lamp: the finish that structures
Black is the dominant color in the collection and suits contemporary, industrial, and modern styles. A black finish against a light wall creates a structural contrast, while a visible bulb reinforces the industrial effect. Discover all variations in our matte black finishes. The Nari industrial-style lamp (metal, rope, glass, and wood, E27 base) embodies this spirit.
White and gold metal wall lamp: light and elegance
White, found in 57% of our models, blends into light walls and is suitable for both bedrooms and bathrooms. Gold, representing 40% of the selection, adds a precious touch without heaviness. Gold wall lamps and matte white models cover the most popular styles. These finishes complete the entire Designix lighting range.
| Style | Typical finishes | Atmosphere | Ideal room |
|---|---|---|---|
| Contemporary | Black, white, brushed metal | Sleek | Living room, bedroom |
| Modern | Gold, glass | Designer | Living room, bathroom |
| Industrial | Black, iron, exposed bulb | Workshop | Living room, hallway |
| Bohemian / Jungle | Rope, brass, marble | Natural | Bedroom, entryway |
| Nordic | Wood, fabric, white | Soft | Bedroom, living room |
Living room wall lamp: what power and style?
For the living room, aim for a powerful wall lamp of 18W to 40W in warm white (2700 to 3500 K) for cozy accent lighting. One-third of the models feature a dimmer, allowing you to adjust the intensity from evening to morning. The Paro model with its USB port and the Qyne with its swivel arm meet both criteria: power and adjustability.
Powerful living room wall lamp
Paro (white or black metal, G9 base, 12W) can be mounted vertically or horizontally and includes a USB port: practical above a sofa or desk. For wall lighting for the living room, mount the lamp approximately 150 cm from the floor to avoid direct glare. The 40W of the Rouille model (E27 base) illuminates a large living room with an industrial ambiance.
Modern living room wall lamp
Matte black, gold, or glass define the modern living room. The combination of metal and glass diffuses a soft, elegant light, ideal for illuminating the side of a sofa. To create a modern-style living room, the Glass Globe lamp (gold metal, G4 base, dimmer) proves relevant. Also, check our modern wall lamps to refine your choice.Which metal wall lamp for a bedroom?
In the bedroom, choose a power range of 8W to 12W in warm white (2700 to 3500 K): light that is gentle on the eyes before sleep. The dimmer, available on a third of the models, further refines the intensity. The bedroom is the room most covered by this selection, with 77% of models suitable for this purpose.
Headboard wall lamp
At the headboard, a swivel lamp directs light toward a book without disturbing a partner. Qyne with its swivel arm (gold brass or bronze, 72 cm arm, dimmer, E27 base, 12W) is designed for this specific use. Our headboard wall lamps include several models with adjustable arms and gold or bronze finishes.
Nordic and soft ambiance
For a bedroom with a Nordic or Scandinavian style, combine metal, wood, and fabric in warm white. Harmonie Nordique (metal, wood, and fabric, E27 base, IP20) creates this softness, available in white or black. The bedroom wall lamps with E27 bases allow you to swap bulbs according to your preferred color temperature. See also our contemporary bedroom models for sleeker finishes.
| Room | Recommended IP Rating | Light temperature | Indicative power |
|---|---|---|---|
| Living room | IP20 | Warm white 2700-3500 K | 18W to 40W |
| Bedroom | IP20 | Warm white 2700-3500 K | 8W to 12W |
| Bathroom | IP44 to IP65 | Neutral white 3500-4500 K | 8W to 18W |
| Outdoor / Terrace | IP65 | Cool white 4500-6500 K | 18W |
| Entryway / Hallway | IP20 to IP65 | Warm or cool white | 12W to 18W |
Waterproof outdoor wall lamp: which IP rating to choose?
Aim for IP65 for any façade or terrace exposed to rain: this level resists direct jets of water and fine dust. An IP44 rating covers splashing water but remains insufficient for uncovered outdoor areas. In this selection, 23% of the models are IP65, all made of metal and aluminum, designed for entryways, terraces, and façades.
Terrace and façade: Terralux, Halo, and Lumina
Terralux for the terrace (metal, glass, and aluminum, IP65, 26x12.5 cm, 18W, black or white) and Halo (17x10 cm, gold or white, cool or warm white) efficiently illuminate a façade or entryway. Lumina (metal, aluminum, and iron, IP65, 32 cm, 4W to 12W) comes in various power levels depending on the surface. Check our indoor wall lamps to create a contrast with the outdoors.
Motion sensor: Sentinel, Sensoria, and SécuriLuxe
A motion sensor lights up upon approach, secures nighttime access, and reduces energy consumption otherwise. Sentinel and Sensoria (IP65, 18W, 26x12.5 cm, metal and aluminum) cover entryways and façades in cool or warm white. SécuriLuxe (IP65, 18W, metal and acrylic) incorporates three light temperatures, allowing usage adaptation based on the season or time of day.
| IP Rating | Protection | Recommended usage |
|---|---|---|
| IP20 | No water protection | Dry rooms: living room, bedroom, restroom |
| IP44 | Splashing water | Bathroom outside shower zone |
| IP65 | Water jets and dust | Outdoor, terrace, entryway, façade |
Designer toilet wall lamp: which lamp for the restroom and bathroom?
For dry toilets, an IP20 is sufficient. Near water sources or in a bathroom, upgrade to IP44, or even IP65 near a walk-in shower. Bathrooms represent 30% of the uses for this collection. To illuminate the bathroom, a neutral white (3500 to 4500 K) renders colors faithfully in the mirror.
Restroom wall lamp: compact and neat
In the toilet, a compact tube-shaped or round lamp (13 to 20 cm in diameter) provides light without clutter. Matte black, white, or gold finishes match most tiles. Warm white (2700 to 3500 K) creates a cozy ambiance, while neutral white remains functional. The compact G9 base is suitable for small spaces and low-profile models.
Bathroom mirror lighting
Placed at mirror height, a tube or round lamp illuminates the face from the front, without backlight or shadows. Éclat Naturel in marble (brass and metal, 42.5x16.5 cm, warm white, IP20) adorns a mirror with a precious touch. Generally, mount the lamp 175 to 185 cm from the floor for balanced facial lighting.
Original and boho-chic wall lamp: our decorative models
To define a wall, opt for unexpected materials: rope, wood, brass, marble, or blown glass. This "farmhouse chic" spirit combines metal and natural elements for a decor that warms up an entryway, bedroom, or hallway in enveloping warm white.
Boho-chic wall lamp: Nari and Harmonie Nordique
The Nari industrial-style lamp (metal, rope, glass, and wood, E27 base, IP20) is suitable for jungle, vintage, or contemporary decor. Harmonie Nordique (metal, wood, and fabric, E27 base, warm white) adopts the Nordic style for a bedroom or living room. These designer wall lamps pair well with a touch of brass for a warm and natural result.
Exceptional pieces: Cerf Sylvestre and Éclat Naturel
The exceptional Cerf Sylvestre piece (marble, metal, brass, resin, and rope, 50x70 cm, E27 base, IP20) becomes the focal point of a living room or entryway. Éclat Naturel in marble (brass and metal, white or gold, warm white) introduces a luxurious material in a bedroom or kitchen. These sculpted shapes join our globe shapes as some of our most decorative wall lamps.
Staircase and hallway wall lamp: properly illuminating passageways
In a staircase or hallway, install multiple metal lamps at regular intervals (approximately 150 cm), using IP20 for the indoors. Orient them slightly downward to guide steps without glare. Warm or neutral white guides your path without causing visual discomfort, especially at night.
Safe staircase lighting
Compact metal lamps (tube or oval shapes, IP20, 8W to 12W) consume little power while ensuring sufficient safety. A motion sensor model turns on automatically and off after you pass. For an outdoor staircase, Terralux or Sentinel (IP65, 18W) remain the suitable options.
Illuminating a hallway without clutter
In a hallway, choose low-profile lamps, with less than 15 cm of protrusion, to keep the passage clear. Industrial black structures a high-ceiling hallway, while diffuse white suits narrow spaces. Find installation tips in the lighting a hallway properly section and compact models in our indoor wall lamps.
Metal, glass, wood, or brass: which lamp finish to choose?
Aluminum (47% of models) lightens the structure and is suitable for both outdoor and indoor use. Glass (37%) diffuses light, and acrylic (30%) resists impact. Iron (17%) provides the raw character of the industrial style. Then, choose the combination according to the ambiance: metal and wood for Nordic, brass or marble for high-end.
Metal and glass wall lamp
The combination of metal and glass produces a diffuse, elegant light, suitable for both the living room and bathroom. Clear glass shows the bulb, while frosted glass softens the glow. Check out our metal and glass combinations for all variations. In a gold or bronze finish, this assembly constitutes a high-end designer wall lamp.
Metal and wood, rust, silver, or grey
Metal and wood combined with fabric (Nordic style) brings softness to the bedroom. The rust style (Metal Rust Wall Sconce, E27 base, 40W) is suitable for a hallway or vintage industrial living room. Silver or grey metal (Lumina, black and grey) offers a neutral alternative to classic black. For copper finishes, browse our brass wall lamps and gold wall lamps.

Frequently asked questions about metal wall lamps
Living room wall lamp
For a living room, favor a metal wall lamp of about 18W in warm white (2700 to 3500 K) for a welcoming light. Dimmable models, like Paro, adjust the ambiance. In black, gold, or glass, it dresses up a wall or frames the sofa with warm accent lighting.
Original wall lamp
An original wall lamp breaks away from classic shapes: glass globe, swivel arm, or sculpted motif. The Cerf Sylvestre or Éclat Naturel marble models provide a strong decorative signature. In gold or silver metal, they become an exceptional piece above a console or headboard.
Powerful LED wall lamp
A powerful LED wall lamp provides primary lighting without a ceiling fixture. In this selection, 80% of models are LED, up to 18W, for a well-lit living room or entryway. LED technology consumes little power and the 2-year warranty covers the entire range.
Restroom wall lamp
For a restroom, a compact metal wall lamp, in IP20 or IP44 depending on ambient humidity, is sufficient. Warm white creates a cozy ambiance, while neutral white remains functional. Black, white, or gold finishes match the toilet tiles and furniture without cluttering the space.
Designer toilet wall lamp
A designer toilet wall lamp focuses on clean lines and a neat finish: matte black metal, gold, or glass. Compact and at least IP20, it provides light without crowding a small space. A tube or round model placed above the mirror structures the restroom decor.
Boho chic wall sconce
A boho chic wall sconce blends natural materials and metal: rope, wood, brass, or marble. The Nari, Nordic Harmony, or Natural Radiance models add warmth to a bedroom or entryway. This country chic style pairs with warm white for soft, enveloping light.
Staircase wall sconce
For a staircase, install metal wall sconces at regular intervals, with an IP20 rating for indoor use. A warm or neutral white light makes the steps safe without being glaring. Compact and adjustable shapes, or a model with a sensor, facilitate nighttime movement.
Waterproof outdoor wall sconce
A waterproof outdoor wall sconce must have a minimum IP65 rating to withstand rain. The Terralux, Halo, Lumina, or SécuriLuxe models, made of metal and aluminum, illuminate terraces and facades. Some include a motion sensor and offer warm white or cool white depending on the use.
