Overview

The TATAWIN wall light by FARO is a wall lamp with an adjustable arm, designed for those looking for a piece with its own character without being too eye-catching. Its silhouette is inspired by the traditional dwellings of Tataouine, a city in southeastern Tunisia, and that reference translates into a shape that does not go unnoticed but does not interrupt the overall feel of the space either.

It works well in the bedroom, living room, dining room or any room where a directable light source is needed. The adjustable arm allows the shade to be positioned according to where the light is needed, without depending on the lamp's fixed position.

FARO is a Spanish brand with decades of experience in interior lighting. Its products combine design sensibility with quality materials, and TATAWIN is an example of that line: a wall light with visual personality, manufactured with attention to detail.

Installation and specifications

For wall installation, it is recommended to fix the wall light to a solid surface that can support the weight of the assembly. Before starting, check that the electrical installation has a suitable connection box at the mounting point. The connection must be made with the power switched off. If you do not have experience with electrical installations, it is preferable to use an electrician. The lamp accepts voltages between 100 V and 240 V, making it compatible with the standard electrical grid in Spain and most countries.

For surface care, use a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive products or solvents that may damage the satin black finish of the steel body. The glossy black glass shade should be cleaned with a soft cloth; products containing ammonia may alter its finish. Do not handle the bulb while the lamp is on or immediately after switching it off.

Design and use

The design of TATAWIN starts from a specific reference: the upper part of the characteristic dwellings of Tataouine, a Tunisian city known for its earth and stone architecture. Adolfo Abejón took that form and translated it into a glossy black glass shade that recalls those constructions without imitating them literally. The result is a wall light with a clear identity, recognisable at first glance without need for explanation.

The body is made of steel with a satin black finish. It is a material that offers solidity and resistance without adding unnecessary weight. The satin finish does not shine excessively, which allows the wall light to fit into both more understated environments and spaces with greater decorative personality. The contrast between the matte black of the body and the glossy black of the glass shade is one of the elements that gives this lamp its character.

The adjustable arm is one of the most useful features of this wall light. It allows the light to be directed wherever it is needed, whether towards a wall, downward or at an angle. This makes it a practical option for the bedroom, where it can be used as a reading light next to the bed. It also works well in the living room or dining room, where a well-directed spot of light helps to create differentiated zones within the same space.

In the kitchen, a wall light of these characteristics can illuminate a specific work area without the need to install an additional ceiling luminaire. The ability to direct the light makes it more versatile than a fixed-position wall light.

In the bathroom, provided the installation complies with regulations regarding distance to water zones, this type of lamp can be used to illuminate the mirror area or a specific corner. The same applies to secondary bathrooms or cloakrooms, where the available space is usually more limited and a well-placed light makes all the difference.

In hallways, the TATAWIN wall light provides illumination that does not fall flat. The adjustable direction allows you to play with light and shadow on the wall, giving greater visual depth to spaces that typically lack decorative interest. Long hallways with several wall lights of this type create a clean and orderly visual continuity.

As for combining with other interior elements, the satin black finish of the wall light integrates well with dark furniture, industrial-style metal structures or medium-toned woods. It can also act as a contrast against light or neutral-toned walls, where the black gains prominence without becoming excessive. The glass shade adds a touch of elegance that elevates the overall look without the piece feeling overdone.

The bulb is not included. The lamp holder is type E27, which is the most common standard, so finding a compatible LED bulb presents no difficulty. The maximum accepted wattage is 15 W, sufficient for ambient or accent lighting in whichever room is chosen.

Questions and answers

Does the arm of the TATAWIN wall light allow the direction of the light to be adjusted once installed?
