Overview

NINA is a pendant lamp from the FARO brand designed for those looking for a clean, discreet light source that does not clash with the rest of the space. Its matte black finish allows it to integrate effortlessly into very different settings: from a contemporary living room to a kitchen with dark cabinets or a well-defined bedroom. It does not need to draw attention to fulfill its function — it is simply there, and the space looks better for it.

It is a compact ceiling lamp, ideal for installations where size matters. It hangs from the ceiling and concentrates light downward thanks to its integrated LED source, making it suitable for illuminating specific areas without flooding the entire environment. FARO is a Spanish brand with decades of experience in lighting. Its products combine solid technical criteria with a clear focus on design, and the NINA lamp is a good example of that way of working.

Installation and specifications

Before installing the pendant lamp, check that the ceiling point is properly fixed and can support the weight of the fitting. Although the lamp is lightweight, the anchor must be securely fastened. Always switch off the power before connecting the cables and make sure the installation is carried out by someone with basic knowledge of electricity. Adjust the cable length according to the ceiling height so that the lamp is in the correct position.

To clean the aluminium body, use a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive products or solvents that could damage the matte black finish. The PMMA diffuser can be cleaned in the same way — without excessive pressure and without abrasive pads. Do not handle the LED source while the lamp is connected to the power supply.

Design and use

The NINA lamp has an oval silhouette that sets it apart from more common models. That elongated, narrow shape gives it a character of its own without being excessive. It is a pendant lamp of contained dimensions — forty millimetres in diameter and one hundred and thirty in height — which makes it a suitable option for spaces where you do not want a dominant piece, but rather a precise and well-resolved detail.

The body is made of aluminium with a matte black finish. It is a material that stands the test of time well and requires no special care. The matte black colour does not reflect light, which helps draw attention to what it illuminates rather than to the lamp itself. This combination of oval shape and dark finish fits naturally in modern interiors, but also in spaces with more industrial or Nordic references, where sober materials play a prominent role.

The diffuser is made of transparent PMMA. It allows light to pass through with minimal filtering, which makes the lamp efficient even at a power of four watts. The integrated LED source emits warm light at 2700K, similar to that of a traditional bulb. This is a temperature that promotes rest and makes spaces feel welcoming. That is why this lamp works well in a bedroom, where harsh light is tiring, or in a dining room, where a calmer atmosphere for dinner is desired.

In the kitchen, a pendant lamp like NINA can be used above an island or over a specific work area. Its size does not get in the way and its oval shape adds a design touch without complicating the overall look. In the bathroom, if there is a ceiling point available, it can be used to complement general lighting with a more directed and aesthetic focus. In a narrow hallway, the reduced scale of this lamp makes it a more suitable option than larger models.

The living room is another space where this pendant lamp fits without any issues. Placed over a side table or in a reading corner, it provides light where it is needed without generating annoying glare. The transparent diffuser allows the LED source to be seen, which adds a small visual effect — it is not a glass ball or a glass globe, but it has its own appeal when lit.

NINA also pairs well with other materials present in the space. With dark wood surfaces, iron structures or walls in neutral colours. The matte black acts as an element that unifies without imposing, which is useful when different textures and finishes coexist in the same space. The warm light it emits reinforces that sense of cohesion. In environments where there are already different types of lights, NINA joins in without creating a jarring contrast.

Questions and answers

Does the NINA lamp include the LED source or does it need to be purchased separately?

The SMD LED source is included in the lamp. No additional accessories are needed to get it up and running.

Does the oval shape of the body affect the direction in which it projects light?

The oval, narrow body, combined with the transparent PMMA diffuser, concentrates light mainly downward. It is suitable for illuminating a specific area rather than providing general light to the entire room.

What colour temperature does it emit and for which environments is it most suitable?

It emits light at 2700K, which is a warm tone. It is best suited for spaces where a relaxed atmosphere is desired, such as a bedroom, a dining room or a living room.
