Overview

The KOMBO lamp by FARO is a suspension luminaire designed for interior spaces where light and form need to work together. It hangs from the ceiling via a seven-light multiple canopy, making it an interesting option when you want to cover a large area from a single installation point. The shade, in terracotta with a metal finish, has a clean cylindrical profile that fits well in living rooms, dining rooms, and bedrooms alike.

FARO is a Spanish brand with years of experience in home lighting. Their products combine careful manufacturing with an aesthetic approach that does not depend on passing trends. The KOMBO series, designed by Nutcreatives, is a good example of that balance: simple structure, measured proportions, and finishes that stand on their own.

Installation and specifications

To install this pendant lamp, you need a ceiling power outlet prepared for suspension. The cable has a generous length of 5000 mm, allowing you to adjust the drop height according to the space. It is recommended that installation be carried out by a qualified electrician, especially with a seven-light multiple canopy. Before connecting, make sure the circuit is switched off at the electrical panel. Remember that the bulb is not included: you need an E27 socket bulb with a maximum power of 15 W.

To clean the metal shade, use a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive products or solvents that could damage the terracotta finish. The matte black steel upper section can be cleaned in the same way. Do not wet the electrical components or the lamp holder openings. When changing a bulb, always disconnect the lamp from the power supply and wait for it to cool down.

Design and use

The KOMBO is a pendant lamp that works very well when the ceiling plays a leading role in the decoration. The set consists of an upper structure in matte black steel from which seven arms hang, each with its own oval shade in terracotta. This arrangement allows the light to be distributed generously without the need to install several independent lighting points. Everything comes from a single canopy, which simplifies the wiring and gives a tidy result.

The terracotta tone of the shades is one of the most defining features of this lamp. It is not a neutral color, but it does not dominate either. It works as a warm accent within spaces where white, grey, or wood tones predominate. In a living room with light-colored walls, the set becomes the element that adds visual depth without needing to add more decorative pieces. In a dining room, the presence of seven grouped lights creates an enveloping atmosphere above the table.

The oval shape of each shade is geometric and restrained. There are no complicated curves or added details. The silhouette is understood at first glance, and that is what makes it fit different interior styles: from a more modern setting with clean-lined furniture, to a warmer, more organic aesthetic where it coexists with materials such as wood or rattan. The matte black finish of the structure provides contrast without feeling heavy.

This suspension luminaire is designed for ceilings in spaces with sufficient height to make the most of the cable drop. In an open kitchen with an island, for example, the multiple canopy can be centered over the work area and the seven oval shades distribute the lighting in a balanced way. In a master bedroom, placed above the bed, it replaces two bedside lamps and gives the overall look a cleaner appearance. It also works well in large rooms where a larger area needs to be covered with a single installation.

The weight of the set, 1.67 kg, is manageable. It does not require special ceiling reinforcements if the base is in good condition. Compatibility with voltages between 100 V and 240 V makes it suitable for different types of installations without the need for adapters.

For those looking for a modern lamp without falling into the impersonal, the KOMBO offers something different. It does not imitate any particular style, but it dialogues well with Scandinavian design, with Mediterranean-inspired interiors, and with spaces where color is used selectively. Terracotta, combined with the black of the structure, is a pairing that already has its own presence in contemporary interiors.

Questions and answers

How many bulbs do I need to buy for this lamp and what type are they?

This pendant lamp has seven lamp holders with an E27 socket. The bulbs are not included, so you need to purchase seven units separately. It is recommended to use LED bulbs with a maximum power of 15 W each.

Can the 5000 mm cable be shortened to adapt it to lower ceilings?

Yes. The cable length allows you to adjust the drop height of the lamp according to the needs of the space. The trimming must be done by a qualified electrician during installation, to ensure that the connections are properly protected.

Is the terracotta-colored oval shade painted or is it the natural color of the material?

The shade is made of metal with a terracotta-colored finish applied to the surface. It is not the natural color of the base material. That is why abrasive products should be avoided when cleaning it, so as not to damage the finish over time.
