Overview

The BERNI wall light by FARO is a design lamp created for those who seek visual clarity without complications. The BERNI collection was born from the idea of reducing the unnecessary: clean shapes, careful finishes, and a fabric shade that softens the light without extinguishing it. The result is a lamp that fits naturally in the bedroom, living room, or hallway, without drawing too much attention to itself.

The wall light features two independent switches on the base. One controls the main light, the other operates the integrated LED reader. This makes it a particularly practical option for the bedside table or for any corner where reading or working without disturbing others is needed.

FARO is a Spanish company with decades of experience in interior lighting. Its products combine careful manufacturing with a design that does not follow passing trends.

Installation and specifications

Before installing this wall light, it is advisable to verify that the wall has an electrical junction box at the desired point. The wall light is fixed directly to the wall using the corresponding anchors. If the wall is made of brick or concrete, it is recommended to use expansion plugs suitable for the material. The electrical connection must be carried out by a qualified electrician if you have no prior experience. Before starting the installation, always cut the power at the electrical panel.

The steel surface in a matte white finish can be cleaned with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Do not use abrasive products or solvents. The fabric shade can be gently brushed with a soft-bristled brush to remove accumulated dust. Avoid wetting the shade directly. Periodically check that the switches on the base respond correctly and that the cable shows no visible damage.

Design and use

The BERNI wall light has a body made of steel with a matte white finish. Matte white is a finish that does not reflect light directly, giving the wall a tidy appearance without uncomfortable glare. The structure is compact and well-proportioned: 570 mm high, 200 mm long, and 290 mm deep. A size that takes up enough space to be functional without dominating the room.

The fabric shade is one of the defining elements of this lamp. The fabric diffuses the light from the E27 LED source and projects a soft, uniform brightness over the surrounding area. It produces no harsh shadows or direct light spots. It is the kind of lighting that rests the eyes, especially useful in the bedroom or reading room.

The integrated LED reader adds a very specific function: it allows reading or illuminating a specific point without having to turn on the entire lamp. The two switches located on the base provide immediate control, without needing to get out of bed or look for additional remotes. This combination of ambient light and directed light makes the wall light a complete solution for the bedside table.

In the living room, this wall light works well as complementary lighting next to a sofa or a reading armchair. In hallways, where light is often lacking but there is no space for large lamps, the wall-mounted format is especially convenient. In the dining room, it can accompany a central lamp to create a warmer, more enveloping atmosphere. Some people also install it in the bathroom above the mirror or in the washbasin area, where an adjustable light like this makes a great deal of sense.

The BERNI collection favors a refined style that does not impose any particular décor. The matte white body and fabric shade blend effortlessly with light wood furniture, walls painted in neutral tones, or interiors with Nordic influence. It also works well alongside metallic elements or smooth colored surfaces. It is not a decorative lamp in the ornamental sense of the word, but a lamp that adds without taking away.

In kitchens with a work area or breakfast nook, this wall light can solve the task lighting of a specific area without the design clashing with the surroundings. In the dining room, placed at the right height next to a free wall, it adds warmth without complicating the general lighting scheme.

The universal voltage between 100 V and 240 V allows this lamp to be used in different countries without adapters. The E27 LED bulb is not included, which gives the freedom to choose the light tone that best suits each space.

Questions and answers

Do the two switches on the base control different functions or do both turn off the entire lamp?

Each switch has an independent function. One controls the main light of the wall light and the other manages the integrated LED reader. They can be used together or separately depending on the need at any given moment.

What type of bulb does this wall light accept and what is the maximum permitted wattage?

The wall light uses an E27 base bulb in LED format. The maximum permitted wattage is 15 W. The bulb is not included in the packaging and must be purchased separately.

Does the fabric shade come pre-assembled or does it need to be installed during the assembly process?

The shade is part of the wall light assembly. The main installation consists of fixing the steel body to the wall and making the electrical connection. Refer to the instructions included in the packaging to confirm the exact order of steps.
