Overview

VENICE is a wall light created by designer Adolfo Abejón for the brand FARO. It is a compact lamp that works well in spaces where a light point is needed without taking up too much room. Its pink ceramic shade, handmade in a workshop in Barcelona, gives it a character of its own that is not easy to find in other luminaires on the market.

This wall light fits well in a bedroom, living room, dining room or even a bathroom. It is also a practical option for hallways, where space is limited and functional lighting is needed without getting in the way. The metal bracket is designed for straightforward installation, with no unnecessary steps.

FARO is a Spanish brand with decades of experience in interior lighting. Its products combine careful manufacturing with a design that integrates into different types of homes.

Installation and specifications

Before installing this wall light, check that the surface where you are going to fix it is solid and can support the weight of the lamp. If there is existing electrical wiring in the wall, make sure it is disconnected before you begin. The metal bracket includes a slot that makes fitting easier: you do not need special tools or advanced technical knowledge. If you have any doubts, consult an electrician before proceeding.

For maintenance, clean the ceramic shade with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive products or those containing solvents, as they can damage the finish. The aluminium body in gloss black can be cleaned in the same way. Do not handle the bulb while the lamp is on or immediately after switching it off.

Design and use

The pink ceramic shade that defines VENICE is not a mass-produced piece. It is handmade in a workshop in Barcelona, which means that each unit has a presence of its own, slightly different from the others. That detail is noticeable when the lamp is on: the light that comes through the shade has a quality that cannot be achieved with industrial materials. The gloss finish of the pink gives it a clean, contemporary look without being eye-catching.

The body is aluminium with a gloss black finish. It is a contrast that works: the warmth of the ceramic pink against the solidity of the black on the bracket. The overall piece has coherence without looking overly studied. This makes the wall light easy to combine with furniture in different styles, whether more Nordic, more Mediterranean or simply neutral.

As a wall light, VENICE adapts to various spaces in the home. In the bedroom, placed on either side of the bed, it works as a reading light without taking up space on the bedside table. In the living room it can accompany a sofa or a reading area, adding a more intimate light source than a ceiling lamp. In the dining room, two well-positioned wall lights help to define the atmosphere around the table without relying solely on central lighting.

In the bathroom it also has its place, especially near the mirror, where a side light reduces shadows. In hallways, its compact size — 174 mm high and 200 mm long — does not interfere with movement. The lamp is functional without taking up more space than necessary.

VENICE is available in several finishes in addition to pink: black, white, cobalt blue and striped. This makes it possible to integrate several units in the same space with colour variations, or simply to choose the one that best matches the palette of the room. The kitchen can also be a good place for this wall light, especially when a decorative light is needed near a work area or a rest corner.

Compatibility with E27 LED bulbs makes the lamp versatile in terms of the type of light that can be achieved. Depending on the bulb chosen, the result can be warmer or more neutral. The universal voltage of 100 V to 240 V means it works without adapters in different countries.

Adolfo Abejón's design for FARO starts from a simple idea: that a modern wall light does not have to be complicated to work well. The slot in the shade and the design of the metal bracket reduce installation time and avoid awkward adjustments. The result is a luminaire that is installed, switched on and delivers what is expected of it.
