Overview

The TIMIT wall light by FARO is a wall lamp with a rounded shape and clean lines. Its matte black finish gives it a discreet character, without going unnoticed. It is an option that fits well when ambient lighting is needed without resorting to bulky or complicated solutions.

This lamp works both as a recessed and a surface-mounted luminaire, making it adaptable to different situations depending on the wall or type of installation available. That flexibility makes it useful in hallways, bedrooms, bathrooms and staircases, where available space varies and it is not always easy to find a solution that works in every case.

FARO is a Spanish brand with decades of experience in interior and exterior lighting. Its products are designed to combine functionality with a design that does not complicate the environment in which they are installed.

Installation and specifications

Before installing the wall light, make sure the electrical circuit is switched off. This lamp can be mounted on the surface or recessed, depending on the junction box available in the wall. It is recommended that the installation be carried out by an electrician if you have no experience with electrical work. Make sure the wall can support the weight and that the anchors are properly fixed before connecting the power supply.

To keep the finish in good condition, clean the surface with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive products or liquids that could affect the matte black finish. Do not touch the LED directly or attempt to disassemble the light module. If the lamp shows any operational anomaly, disconnect it before inspecting it.

Design and use

The TIMIT wall light has a circular silhouette of 145 x 145 mm and only 53 mm in depth. These dimensions make it compact without losing presence on the wall. The body is made of steel and aluminium, two materials that provide solidity without adding unnecessary weight. Weighing less than 400 grams, it is easy to handle and install.

The matte black finish covers the structure uniformly. It does not reflect, does not accumulate fingerprints easily and maintains a clean appearance with little maintenance. It is a colour that integrates well in interiors with dark or neutral palettes, but also works as a contrast against light walls, where the round shape of the wall light gains prominence.

One of the most practical features of this lamp is that it supports two types of installation: as a recessed luminaire or as a surface-mounted luminaire. This means it can adapt to what already exists in the wall, without the need for significant modifications. If there is a recessed box, the wall light becomes almost integrated into the wall. If mounted on the surface, the reduced depth means it does not protrude excessively.

The light source is a high-power LED included in the wall light itself. It emits a colour temperature of 2700 K, which corresponds to warm light. This type of lighting is comfortable in spaces where time is spent resting or engaged in quiet activities. In a bedroom, for example, warm lateral light creates a more relaxed atmosphere than a direct overhead source. In the bathroom, when installed at the appropriate height, it provides uniform lighting on the face without creating pronounced shadows.

In hallways and staircases, the concentrated light from this wall light marks the path without the need to install multiple luminaires. The circular shape and matte finish prevent glare, which is especially useful in areas where people move in different directions and at different heights. Two or three units distributed along a staircase or a long hallway can create continuous, well-distributed lighting.

The 2700 K temperature also fits in living rooms or entrance halls where accent lighting is desired. In those spaces, the wall light can be installed to highlight a specific area of the wall, a piece of furniture or an entrance, without becoming the main light source in the room.

The rounded design is one of the defining elements of TIMIT. Circular shapes tend to soften environments, especially when the other elements have right angles. A wall light of these characteristics can work well alongside door frames, headboards or shelving, providing a point of visual balance. The matte black, for its part, pairs well with hardware, taps or frames in the same finish, making it easy to create a cohesive environment effortlessly.

With a consumption of 4 W, the energy expenditure is very low for continuous use. This makes it suitable for places that remain on for several hours, such as nighttime hallways or frequently used bathrooms.

Questions and answers

Is it possible to install the TIMIT both recessed in the wall and surface-mounted without modifying the product?

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

The high-power LED module is included in the wall light. No additional light source needs to be purchased to get the luminaire up and running.

It emits light at 2700 K, which is a warm tone. It is especially comfortable in bedrooms, bathrooms and rest areas, where lighting that is neither cold nor intense is desired.
