Industrial Wall Lights
Industrial wall lights are popular lighting that focuses on the practicality and charisma of simple aesthetics. Bare bulbs, cage shades, and processed or unfinished construction materials are the key elements that define these lights.
Use industrial wall lights in your homes and business spaces if your goal is to introduce the appeal of the productive urban setting. These lights can boost the ambience in your stark or cold interiors, allowing you to bask in the charm of the rustic and vintage past popularised in old warehouses and factory buildings.
Zest Lighting cordially invites you to browse our collection of industrial wall lights. Regardless of your decor style, there is an industrial wall light that suits your space.
Identifying the Industrial Style
Industrial wall lights follow the monochromatic colour theme that leans on the natural or neutral shades. This means that most industrial wall lights on the market have grey, white, black, beige, taupe, and brown tones. Many versions also have exposed bulbs with frames or bases made of either natural elements like wood and stone or building materials like concrete and pipes. Generally, these lights are also characterised by their unfinished, rustic, or vintage appeal.
On Selecting Your Industrial Wall Light
You're browsing some online pages and found an industrial wall light to your liking. You're prepared to add it to your online cart, pay, and checkout your purchase when a thought suddenly pops into your head - is it appropriate for my space?
Before purchasing that industrial wall light that caught your eye, you might as well evaluate the following factors to see if it matches your room's existing fittings, style, and atmosphere:
- Purpose: Determine your goal for installing an industrial wall light on your home before buying one. The same goes if you already bought one; you don't want it to just accumulate dust on a corner and waste your money just because it doesn't look good with everything in the room, right? The everyday purposes of light fixtures are often differentiated by the so-called layers of light: ambient lighting, task lighting, decorative lighting, and accent lighting:
- Wall lights meant for ambient lighting provide a scattered overall brightness in the room.
- Task wall lights are often used when one needs to illuminate a specific area, e.g. tables, counters, sofas, etc.
- Decorative wall lights have a straightforward goal - to become aesthetically-pleasing lighting pieces in the room.
- Lastly, industrial wall lights meant for accent lighting highlight a space's decors and architectural details.
- Placement: This factor encompasses the details regarding the space of your installation. For better understanding, we've classified it into three subcategories:
- Location: It pertains to the general area of your establishment in which the lighting will be installed, e.g. patio, bedroom, hallway, garage, etc. There are industrial wall lights that may look amazing when installed in one location but look ostentatious in another, so decide first where you plan to use your industrial wall light and then narrow down your choices from there.
- Installation Height: If you plan to install your industrial wall light in a place with a lot of foot traffic, like hallways and stairways, one of the first things that'll come to mind is looking for those with fewer protrusions. However, keep in mind that this lessens your options drastically, as many industrial wall lights are surface-mounted. Instead, you can install your preferred industrial wall lights at a level where most people won't be bothered by the protruding parts and the bulb's glow.
- Spacing: Remember that wall lights, depending on their design and light intensity, can only lighten up a particular range. Correct spacing between your wall lights and other fixtures can help you illuminate what matters more. Spacing is also an essential factor when you want to stagger lights, a typical lighting effect that can create dramatic or creative visuals on walls.
- Colour and Texture: The colours of most industrial wall lights can be easily paired with the colour scheme of most interior aesthetics. Furthermore, depending on the manufacturing methods, industrial wall light fixtures can have different textures that may add character to your room design. Ponder what effect you want your industrial wall light to achieve and choose among the colour and texture options applicable to your needs.
- Material: Some people choose the industrial wall lights for their spaces not by their appearances or character but based on the material they're made of. Authentic wooden industrial wall lights need meticulous maintenance, primarily if used in a humid environment, as wood may expand when there's a lot of moisture in the air. Some prefer their industrial wall lights to have a natural patina finish over time. Hence, they opt for those made with copper, bronze, or brass. If you have concerns like these, then it's essential to also consider the material of your wall light before making the final choice.
- Lighting Specification: Aside from the visual cues, you also have to consider the aspects regarding your industrial wall light's lighting effect. Many industrial wall lights online may have similar aesthetics but have differing wattage ratings, lumen outputs, globe bases, or power sources. Scrutinise the product descriptions of your chosen industrial wall lights carefully to ensure that you won't purchase a light that is inapplicable to your environment.
