Overview

SHOKU is a surface-mounted lamp designed for interiors where visual order matters. It attaches directly to the wall and provides general lighting without protruding elements or visible cables. The result is functional light that does not distract, yet transforms the perception of the space.

The light source is recessed, which reduces direct glare and makes it more comfortable to be in the same room for hours. The opal diffuser distributes light evenly, without concentrated bright spots. In the SHOKU 350 model, the body is illuminated internally, creating its own visual effect, distinct from that of a conventional ceiling light.

The SHOKU family is available in different sizes and colors, making it possible to combine several units within the same space or coordinate them with other luminaires in the environment. The design was developed by Ernest Perera Studio with a minimalist and architectural approach. FARO Barcelona has been manufacturing luminaires with design criteria for decades, and SHOKU represents that balance between form and function well.

Installation and specifications

For wall installation, check that the surface is solid and capable of supporting the weight of the fixture. Locate existing wiring before making any holes. It is recommended to hire an electrician if you have no experience with electrical installation work. The mains voltage must be within the indicated range. Before starting, disconnect the power at the electrical panel.

For cleaning, use a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive products or solvents that could damage the white finish of the body or the PMMA diffuser. Do not clean the lamp with the power connected. Periodically check that the anchor points are secure.

Design and use

The SHOKU body is made of aluminium, a material that combines structural strength with low weight. This is noticeable during installation: the lamp does not place unnecessary load on the wall and maintains its position without deforming over time. The white finish is neutral and adapts effortlessly to light-colored walls, wood cladding, or textured surfaces.

The PMMA diffuser in opal finish serves a specific purpose: softening the light output so there are no areas of harsh contrast. In a bedroom, this translates into a calmer atmosphere, without the sensation that the light "stings" the eyes. In a kitchen, it helps illuminate evenly, without shadows that hinder work. The color temperature of 2700K produces warm light, close to traditional incandescent light, which is pleasant in spaces where people socialize or rest.

The SHOKU 350 model has a distinctive feature that sets it apart: the body is illuminated from within, not only from the front diffuser. This effect adds visual depth to the whole and makes the lamp function also as a decorative element within the space, not solely as a light source. In a hallway or in a room with smooth walls, that detail changes the perception of the space.

The SHOKU family is designed to be combined. Its different sizes allow several units to be installed at different heights or in different areas without the result looking forced. In a dining room, for example, two wall lights can be placed facing each other to generate balanced lighting without relying on a central pendant lamp. In bedrooms, they work well on either side of the headboard, where direct, well-controlled light makes reading easier or simplifies the pre-sleep routine.

In a kitchen, wall positioning can solve situations where the ceiling has installations that make it difficult to mount surface lights. In these cases, the lamp adapts to the available space without the need for additional work. The modern finishes of SHOKU also fit well in more contemporary home-style environments, where materials are simple and lines are clean.

For those looking for modern lights without sacrificing sobriety, SHOKU offers a point of balance. It is not a lamp that aggressively draws attention to itself, but its internal lighting effect in the 350 model does create a visual presence that distinguishes the space. In a dining room or living room, that nuance can be enough to noticeably change the atmosphere without the need for major interventions.

The modern design of the SHOKU family, with its architectural language and white finish, also makes it easy to combine with other elements in the environment. It works equally well against a light background as against darker cladding, because the white of the body acts as a neutral element that does not compete with the existing décor. From metal profile bars to light wood furniture, the lamp integrates effortlessly.

Questions and answers

Is the SMD LED light source included or does it need to be purchased separately?

The light source is included. The SHOKU 350 wall light comes with the integrated LED module ready to connect, with no need to purchase any additional components.

Does the 350 mm diameter refer to the total size of the wall light or only to the diffuser?

The 350 mm diameter corresponds to the total dimension of the luminaire. This is the relevant figure for calculating the space required on the wall before installation.

Is the 2700K color temperature fixed or can it be adjusted?

The color temperature is fixed at 2700K, which corresponds to warm white light. There is no color temperature adjustment function in this model.
