Overview

The FARO KOMBO lamp is a suspension luminaire designed for spaces where visual order matters. Its cylindrical shape, matte black finish, and grey metal shade create a combination that works well in both a large dining room and a kitchen with a defined style. It doesn't take up too much visual space, but it doesn't go unnoticed either.

This version features a multiple 5-light canopy and a diameter of 40 cm, making it a solid option for lighting dining tables or work areas. The clean geometry of its shade adapts to modern interiors effortlessly.

FARO is a Spanish brand with decades of experience in lighting. Their products combine functionality and design without falling into generic solutions. The KOMBO series, developed together with the Nutcreatives studio, is a good example of that way of working.

Installation and specifications

To install this pendant lamp, a ceiling box in good condition and electrical cables capable of supporting the connection are required. The multiple canopy requires sufficient space on the ceiling for anchoring the five fixing points. It is recommended that installation be carried out by a qualified electrician. The cable has a length of 5000 mm, allowing the height to be adjusted according to the space. Before connecting, make sure to cut the power at the electrical panel.

The metal shade can be cleaned with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive products or solvents that may damage the finish. Do not touch the bulb with unprotected hands, as the oils from skin can affect its lifespan. Periodically check that the ceiling fixing system is in good condition.

Design and use

The KOMBO series is born from a simple idea: a structure that is recognisable by its geometry, not by its ornaments. The upper part of the lamp is a matte black cylinder made of steel, which acts as the visual axis of the entire piece. From that point, the cables that hold the luminaire to the ceiling extend, keeping it stable and well centred.

The oval grey shade is made of metal and has a clean profile, without unnecessary curves. That oval shape is not just an aesthetic decision: it distributes light downward in a concentrated manner, which is especially useful above a dining table or a kitchen worktop. The combination of black and grey is neutral without being cold, making it easy to integrate into different decoration styles.

This 5-light version allows for a richer visual composition on the ceiling. The five hanging heads generate distinct light points that illuminate broadly without depending on a single spotlight. It is a solution that works well in medium-sized spaces, where a single pendant lamp might fall short.

The matte black finish of the body withstands the test of time better than glossy finishes, as it does not show fingerprints or the small scuffs of daily use. The steel from which the body is made provides rigidity and stability, two things that are noticeable from the very first moment it is hung from the ceiling.

In a living room, this lamp works well above a low table or in the centre of the space. In a bedroom, it can be installed at a height that allows reading without straining the eyes. In the bathroom, provided the installation complies with safety regulations for wet areas, it can provide a directed light point without being harsh. In the hallway, the set of 5 lights creates a visual presence that transforms a transitional space into something more refined.

Compatibility with E27 LED bulbs is a practical advantage. This type of bulb is easy to find and allows choosing between different colour temperatures depending on the atmosphere to be created. Warm light softens the space; neutral light is more suitable for work areas. The lamp does not include the bulb, giving the freedom to choose the option that best suits each situation.

The design of the KOMBO series is modern without being aggressive. Well-proportioned geometric shapes work equally well in a minimalist interior as in one with more character. If the rest of the space incorporates materials such as wood or iron, this lamp accompanies them without competing with them.

Questions and answers

Can the 5-light multiple canopy be installed on a standard residential ceiling?

Yes, the multiple canopy is designed to be fixed to conventional ceilings. It is important to verify that the ceiling box has sufficient capacity and that the installation is carried out by a professional, as there are five connection points that must be properly anchored.

Can the 5000 mm cable length be shortened to adjust the height of the lamp?

The cable length allows the lamp to be hung at different heights depending on the space. To adjust it, the excess cable is gathered inside the canopy. It is not recommended to cut the cable without electrical knowledge; it is preferable to have it managed by a qualified installer.

Is the oval shade of the lamp made of the same material as the upper cylindrical body?

Both parts are made of metal, but they have different finishes. The upper body is steel with a matte black finish, while the oval shade is grey. This difference in colour is part of the design of the KOMBO series.
