Overview

The STUDIO lamp by FARO is a pendant luminaire designed for interior spaces where design matters as much as function. It fits well in the dining room, living room, or any corner where you want to add a light source with its own character. Its M size makes it a balanced option: it doesn't take up too much space, but it does have visual presence.

What makes this pendant lamp special is the cable support rod, which imitates the shape of a tree branch. It is not a decorative detail added as an afterthought, but part of the design language of the collection. The piece has a matte black steel body and a matte blue shade, a combination that works well both in modern interiors and in spaces with a more classic touch.

FARO is a Spanish brand with decades of experience in lighting. Its products combine solid technical criteria with genuine attention to design, and the STUDIO collection, created by the Nahtrang studio, is a good example of that.

Installation and specifications

Before installing this ceiling luminaire, check that the existing light point has a suitable connection box and that the wiring is in good condition. As this is a pendant lamp, it is advisable to verify the clear height between the ceiling and the floor to ensure that the assembly hangs at a comfortable distance. Installation should be carried out by a qualified electrician or a person with basic knowledge of electrical installation. Make sure to cut the power before any intervention.

To keep the lamp in good condition, clean the surface with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive products or solvents that could damage the matte finish. The LED bulb is not included: use an E27 type with a maximum power of 15 W. Do not exceed this limit in order to preserve the service life of the luminaire.

Design and use

The STUDIO collection was born from a simple idea: to recapture the sobriety of 1950s lines without the result looking outdated. The M-size pendant lamp in matte blue is the most eye-catching version of the collection, because the colour adds personality without breaking the balance of the whole.

The matte black steel body is solid and lightweight at the same time. With less than one kilogram of net weight, it does not put strain on the ceiling anchor point. The shade has an oval shape, with a diameter of 160 mm, which makes it suitable for illuminating a specific area without dispersing the light too much. That oval shape is consistent with the spirit of the collection: no ornaments, no forced geometries.

The rod that holds the cable is the most recognisable element. It imitates the organic branching of a tree branch, and this creates an interesting contrast with the industrial materials of the rest of the piece. It is not a minor detail: it defines the character of the lamp and distinguishes it from other pendant luminaires with similar finishes.

In the dining room, this lamp works well above a medium-sized dining table, especially if the rest of the furniture has clean lines. In the bedroom, it can be installed as the main light source or as complementary lighting if the room has several light sources. It also fits in a kitchen with a contemporary aesthetic, where the matte blue can interact with white, grey, or natural wood surfaces.

The living room is another space where this pendant luminaire makes sense, especially in reading areas or specific corners that need a defined light source. In a room with standard ceilings, the assembly integrates without being intrusive. For spaces with higher ceilings, it can be interesting to combine it with other lights from the same collection to create a visual composition.

The compatible voltage between 100 V and 240 V allows it to be used in different countries without adapters. Compatibility with LED means energy consumption is low, which is practical if the lamp is going to be on for many hours a day. Since the bulb is not included, you can choose the colour temperature that best suits the atmosphere: warm light for the bedroom or living room, neutral light for the kitchen or workspace.

Nahtrang's design for FARO is based on a clear philosophy: that classic does not have to mean ornate. The STUDIO collection responds to this with pieces that do not seek to be the centre of attention but have a character of their own that is hard to ignore. This oval lamp in blue is a good example of how an everyday object can have something to say without the need for exaggerated gestures.

Questions and answers

Is the cable support rod adjustable in height?

The manufacturer's specifications do not indicate that the rod is adjustable. If you need to adjust the height of the pendant lamp, consult with the installer before mounting to assess the available options.

Is this luminaire suitable for installation in the bathroom?

The manufacturer does not specify an IP protection rating for this lamp, so it is not indicated for directly wet areas such as the shower. For use in the bathroom, it is recommended to install it in areas away from water projection.

Is the E27 socket compatible with LED bulbs of any brand?

Yes, the E27 socket is a universal standard. You can use any LED bulb of that type, as long as it does not exceed the maximum power of 15 W indicated by FARO for this luminaire.
