Dining room wall light: Ideal for brightening up this convivial room!
The dining room is a place where we love to gather as a family after a busy day. It is the warm space we look forward to returning to in the evening, and wall lighting goes a long way to create this atmosphere! A beautiful wall light placed here and there in the kitchen-dining area will create a warm, soft atmosphere, perfect for putting a smile on everyone's face. From our wide range, we do our utmost to offer you a vast selection of wall lights designed to be installed around the central feature: the dining table.
Whether in a trio or a pair, designer wall lights help surround your living space by focusing their indirect lighting around the table, highlighting your food while adding a decorative touch. Each wall light is often used to complement a central fixture, such as a ceiling light or a pendant light. This will highlight your dish.
Choosing the design for your dining room wall light
The elegant lights we have in stock are plentiful. Subjective, you might say! However, you should not choose an LED or halogen light simply because it looks attractive to you. It must also match the surrounding interior décor! For example, it would not be ideal to install an oriental-style wall light or chandelier in an industrial loft with a matte black or grey look. A metal lampshade wall light would be more appropriate.
We therefore recommend creating harmony between the colours of your living-dining area. For example, you could choose an accent light such as a rustic wooden wall light if your table is also made of wood. You can also create beautiful combinations of wood & aluminium or stainless steel; they go very well together.
For modern and contemporary dining rooms, bases and polycarbonate shades are a minimalist option that can suit any interior of this style, as can frosted glass, which is also very understated. You can also add colour by choosing a Nordic wall light or one made of rattan.
Lighting your dining room
Unlike the kitchen, where the chosen lighting should focus on functional white light so you can see what you are cooking, the dining room is quite different. Indirect lighting on the wall, with light intensity projected through a satin or openwork shade, will work very well. This will ensure that visual comfort is not compromised during dinner. You should therefore first ensure that the number of lumens per bulb is distributed according to the size of each room, at a rate of 100 lumens per square metre. If you want modern, more customisable technology, we offer E14 or E27 screw-in bulbs that are dimmable and connected to a dimmer switch as well as a remote control.
The other advantage of this type of technology? Low energy consumption in the long term! Although the cost is often higher at the time of purchase, the long-term energy bill will often be lower.
Finally, the colour temperature is also very important in a relaxation room such as the dining room. You can soften it in a classic way:
- By choosing a compact fluorescent or LED bulb with tinted glass.
- By choosing an openwork or frosted glass shade. Wire mesh is also effective. This reduces the brightness
Or again, by opting for a dimmer.
The shape of the dining room wall light can also be adapted to the kitchen
We offer as many choices as you can imagine.
- In the shape of a recessed bedside lamp
- Adjustable spotlights that allow for a rounded or diamond-shaped recessed installation, for example
- Kitchen wall lights with an articulated arm to direct the beams
- Dining room wall lights with a bare bulb and a decorative filament to evoke an industrial style.
The choices are endless for decorating your living spaces!
