Round Wall Light

Choose your round wall light starting with the socket and the light: an E27 or G9 lets you replace the bulb and adjust the power, while an integrated LED gives a fixed and even output. Most models in this selection light in warm white, from 2700 to 3500 K, with IP20 for indoors and IP65 for a facade.

Which round wall light for good lighting?

It all depends on what the room needs to do: for reading or working, an E27 or G9 socket lets you choose the bulb and its power, while an integrated LED gives a fixed and even output. Warm white dominates this selection, and dimming remains possible on some models.

Design or flat round wall light: what difference in rendering?

A flat round wall light sits flush against the wall and goes unnoticed: it suits a hallway or a bedroom wall. A deeper model, with an offset or a thick circle, casts a soft shadow and draws a halo around the light point, which changes the look of a bare wall. Browse the full range of Designix wall lights to compare the two renderings.

Which powerful LED round wall light to choose?

To get a powerful LED round wall light, the socket matters more than the shape. An E27 accepts a higher-power bulb than a small G4 or an integrated LED of a few watts, and is therefore suitable for a living room or a long hallway. Check the maximum power indicated for the fixture. Indoor models are gathered in indoor wall lights.

Which round wall light for a modern living room?

In the living room, the round wall light works as a supplement: it lights the wall above the sofa, frames a bookcase or replaces a lamp placed on a console. A large format gives a wall effect, two small formats as a pair give symmetrical lighting.

How to get a powerful living room wall light?

An E27 or G9 socket opens the door to the most powerful bulbs, whereas an integrated LED is capped at what the manufacturer has planned. The Calyce model with E27 socket, in fabric and metal at 25 cm high and 25 cm deep, illustrates this: you keep control over the power and the light temperature.

Matching a round wall light with a round table or a sofa

The round shape responds to the curves of the furniture: a glass ball above a round table, a black metal circle above a straight sofa. The Seli, glass ball and brass at 50 x 15 cm, combines glass, brass and marble for a contemporary feel. The models designed for living room wall lighting gather this register. For a distinctive room, look for an original model with worked shapes and materials, or a round LED wall light of 10W with 360° diffusion.

Which round wall light for the bedroom and the headboard?

In the bedroom, the round wall light replaces the bedside lamp and frees the nightstand: two round points on either side of the bed, at seated shoulder height, or a single articulated model aimed at the book. A warm white light suits reading in bed.

White or gold round wall light: which atmosphere?

White blends into a light wall and leaves only the light visible; gold adds a warm line above the bed and matches the brass of the furniture. White finishes suit children's rooms and small spaces. Gold wall lights dress a headboard, and many accept a dimmer.

Articulated arm, fixed circle or lampshade: what to choose for reading?

An articulated arm adjusts to the page, a fixed circle lights wider and serves as ambiance. The Rira circle, 10 cm, G9 socket, dimmable, fits on a narrow wall. The Waro dimmable wall light, 11 x 20 cm in E27, covers an entire bed. The headboard wall lights gather the small formats, and the bedroom wall lamps cover the models with arms.

Which waterproof outdoor round wall light to choose?

Outside, it is the protection rating that decides: IP65 for a facade or a wall exposed to rain, IP44 for a sheltered area under an awning. An IP20 remains reserved for indoors. The material must also withstand humidity, with metal, aluminium and glass being the most common.

IP65 and IP44: what the protection rating really protects

The first digit concerns solid dust, the second water: an IP65 resists jets and dust, an IP44 splashes. An IP20 protects neither from rain nor from immersion. The vast majority of models in this selection are IP20, only a small part is designed for outdoors.

Metal, aluminium or glass: which material for a facade wall light?

Aluminium does not rust and stays light, painted steel requires careful finishing, glass is cleaned with clear water and does not yellow. The Halo round outdoor wall light, 17 x 10 cm, LED and IP65, combines metal, glass, aluminium and acrylic. Indoor models are found in metal wall lights.

How to install and maintain a round wall light?

A round wall light is fixed on a flat support, with the supplied terminal block, and the power is cut at the breaker before connection. In a damp room or outside, installation and the protection rating go together. For maintenance, a soft cloth is enough on metal, glass is cleaned with clear water.

At what height to install a round wall light?

In general, a circulation wall light is installed between 1.70 and 2 m from the floor, out of the reach of hands. Above a nightstand, allow about 1.10 to 1.30 m, which is seated shoulder height. These markers vary depending on the room and the size of the occupants.

Wireless or wired: two very different installations

A wired model requires a power supply on the wall and drilling. The wireless Roll 8 model, in wood and LED at 7.2 x 12 cm, installs without damaging the wall and suits a rental. The wireless stays on battery, the wired never goes out for lack of charge. Outdoor wall lights from the lighting selection follow the same installation rules.

Can a round wall light be installed on the ceiling?

Yes, if the support is flat and the diffusion is not directed. Small round models, such as 10 or 15 cm circles, install on the ceiling without difficulty. A model with an articulated arm or a fabric shade is designed for the wall and would lose its purpose on the ceiling.

Round wall light on the ceiling of a hallway or entrance

On the ceiling, a small round circle lights wide and without glare, which suits a narrow hallway, an entrance or a pantry. Check that the luminaire is intended for ceiling installation, as the weight and fixing are not always the same. The ball-shaped wall lights give a similar rendering.

When a wall model should stay on the wall

An articulated reading light, a fabric shade and models with a large offset were designed for a wall: on the ceiling, they light poorly and become visible from all sides. In that case, go for a small flat format, or for affordable wall lights installed in a row.

Which round wall light for a hallway, a staircase or a toilet?

In passageways, the round wall light lights without taking up space: a thin and shallow model in a hallway, several wall lights along a staircase, a small format in a toilet. Avoid too directed an output that glares on the steps, and keep the same family of finishes.

Toilet and WC design wall light: which small model?

A small round format and a sober finish are enough. The black Hilde wall light, 20 x 3 cm, E27 socket, installs in a hallway, a staircase or a toilet and stays discreet on a narrow wall. The hallway wall lights gather these thin models.

Staircase and hallway: lighting without glare

It is better to multiply the points than to aim strong: one wall light per flight, or a model every two to three meters, with a light that illuminates the steps without hitting the eye of the person going up. The Mori, metal and wood bulb at 7 x 12.3 cm in E27 socket, also suits an open kitchen. See staircase lighting for flights.

Bohemian, gold or black round wall light: how to choose the style?

Style is read first on the material and finish: glass and brass for a bohemian chic feel, black metal for a modern or minimalist ambiance, white and acrylic for a discreet rendering. Wood brings a warm note, close to a country decoration.

From bohemian chic to country chic wall light

A black version in metal gives a graphic line to modern rooms. A country chic wall light borrows from wood, patinated metal and glass, always with a warm white light. The models in modern style play the opposite card, with clean shapes and little ornament.

Round wall light in glass or wood: which material for which decor?

Glass reflects light and gives a clean rendering, wood softens it and takes on a patina over time. The Delo glass discs, at 61.5 cm and in LED, draw a horizontal line of several circles above a sofa or a table. To compare materials, open the round glass wall lights.
