Overview
Overview
The ARTIS wall light by FARO is a wall lamp designed for those who seek functional lighting without sacrificing a clean, balanced style. It is suitable for illuminating bedrooms, living rooms, hotel rooms, or lounges where direct, well-placed light is needed without overwhelming the space.
This wall light includes an orientable reader in a chrome finish, allowing the light to be directed wherever it is needed at any given moment. The body is made of steel with a chrome finish, and the shade is black, creating a sober combination that fits contemporary interiors without being eye-catching.
FARO is a Spanish brand with decades of experience in lighting for the home and the contract sector. Its products combine design criteria with careful manufacturing, and are intended to last in both residential and professional environments alike.
Installation and specifications
Before installing this wall light, make sure the fixing area is solid and can support the weight of the unit. Switch off the power from the electrical panel before starting any work. If you have no experience with electrical installations, it is advisable to hire an electrician. The lamp is fixed directly to the wall, so it is worth marking the anchor points precisely before drilling.
To clean the surface of the wall light, use a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive products or solvents that could damage the chrome finish or the black shade. Do not handle the lamp with the power connected. Remember that the E27 LED light source is not included and must be purchased separately before using the wall light.

Design and use
The ARTIS wall light was designed by Alex & Manel Lluscà, a studio with a clear focus on timeless forms that do not depend on current trends. The result is a wall lamp that can look just as good in a bedroom renovated today as it will in ten years' time, without its presence feeling forced or anachronistic.
The chrome steel body provides a sense of understated solidity. It is not an element that seeks to draw attention, but rather to integrate naturally into its surroundings. The black shade contrasts gently against the shiny metal, and that combination works well both in interiors with neutral palettes and in spaces where several finishes coexist. It is a lamp that does not demand the spotlight, but one that is noticed when well positioned.
The orientable reader is one of the most practical aspects of this wall light. It allows the direction of the light to be adjusted according to the use of the space: towards one side of the bed for reading, towards a work area, or simply to create a localized point of light that defines a part of the living room or dining room without illuminating the entire space. That adaptability makes it useful in very different situations.
In a bedroom, this wall light works especially well beside the headboard. It takes up less space than a bedside lamp, keeps the surface free, and provides well-directed light. In a hotel room, it fulfills exactly the same function: practical comfort with an orderly visual presence. It is no coincidence that ARTIS is also designed for the hotel sector, where precisely that balance between design and utility is sought.
In the living room or dining room, it can be used to reinforce a specific area: next to a sofa, above a sideboard, or in a corner where the general light does not reach with sufficient intensity. It does not replace the main lighting of the space, but it does complement it effectively. In hallways it also makes sense, especially when oriented light that does not dazzle when passing through is desired.
The ARTIS wall light accepts an E27 LED bulb, which allows the colour temperature and intensity that best suits each ambience to be chosen. A warmer light in the bedroom, something cooler in a reading or work area. That decision is left to the user, and the lamp handles it without difficulty.
In larger bathrooms, this type of wall light can be used in areas away from the shower or bathtub, where regulations permit. In spacious bathrooms with vanity areas, a wall lamp with a reader provides lateral light that is usually more flattering and functional than overhead light. In wide hallways or transit areas, the wall light can also play a useful role without creating uncomfortable shadow zones.
The combination of chrome and black integrates easily alongside materials such as marble, exposed concrete, or the metallic finishes that are common in contemporary renovations. The design does not impose a specific style, which makes it versatile. Whether the surroundings are more modern and restrained or coexist with pieces of a different character, the ARTIS wall light finds its place without creating visual conflict. A modern lamp that performs with the same solidity in a renovated kitchen as in a living room with more classic lines.

Questions and answers
Does the ARTIS wall light include the E27 LED bulb?
No, the light source is not included. An E27 LED bulb must be purchased separately, with a maximum power of 15 W.
Is it possible to adjust the light direction of the wall light after installation?
Yes. This wall light incorporates an orientable reader that allows the direction of the light to be adjusted once installed, without the need to remove or modify any part of the fixing.
How far does the wall light protrude from the wall?
The depth of the wall light is 221 mm from the wall. This is useful information for calculating whether there is sufficient space in passageways or near nearby furniture.
