Overview

The FARO PLAS lamp is a wall recessed luminaire made of plaster with a white finish. It integrates into the surface without protruding too much, making it suitable for spaces where volume matters: a narrow hallway, a staircase, a bedroom with smooth walls, or a bathroom where every centimeter counts.

The wall light incorporates high-power LED technology at 2700K, producing warm light similar to classic incandescent. There is no flickering or cold tone. The illumination it generates is soft and uniform, without creating harsh shadow zones. For a bedroom or bathroom where a calm atmosphere at night is desired, that type of light makes a difference.

FARO is a Spanish brand with years of experience in the interior lighting sector. Its products combine traditional materials with current technology, and the PLAS lamp is a good example of this: plaster and aluminum, with LED included, ready to install.

Installation and specifications

To install this wall recessed light, a recess must be made in the support. The recessing depth is 50 mm, which requires the wall to have sufficient thickness or an appropriate dry lining to be used. It is recommended that the electrical installation be carried out by a professional, as it involves direct connection to the mains. Before starting assembly, make sure to cut the power at the electrical panel. The wall light is compatible with voltages between 100V and 240V, so it works with the standard Spanish installation without adapters.

The plaster body is delicate when subjected to impacts during assembly. Handle it carefully to avoid chipping at the edges. Once the lamp is installed, the surface can be cleaned with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Do not use abrasive products or solvents, as they can damage the white finish. The included LED does not require frequent replacement, but if necessary, consult a specialized technician.

Design and use

The PLAS lamp is a recessed luminaire designed to be installed on a wall. Its body is made of plaster with a matte white finish, giving it a clean and discreet appearance. When installed, it integrates into the wall as if it were part of it. It does not draw attention in an exaggerated way, but it does not go unnoticed either: its elongated shape, with 245 mm in height and 105 mm in length, has a calm presence that adds to the overall space.

Plaster is a material that has been used for decades in construction and interior decoration. It is visually lightweight, adapts well to painted surfaces, and combines effortlessly with white, grey, or earth-toned walls. In a bedroom with smooth walls, this wall light integrates naturally without breaking the continuity of the space. In a bathroom, it provides warm lighting that softens the atmosphere, especially in the morning hours or before going to sleep.

The PLAS recessed wall light incorporates a high-power LED light source with a color temperature of 2700K. That temperature is equivalent to warm light, similar to that produced by a traditional incandescent bulb. The resulting light is not harsh or bluish, but soft and enveloping. In a hallway, that type of lighting avoids the feeling of coldness that transit spaces sometimes generate. On a staircase, it creates a pleasant visual guide without causing glare.

The use of aluminum in parts of the structure provides solidity without adding excessive weight. The unit weighs 1.88 kg, which makes handling easier during assembly. The depth of just 50 mm means that recessing does not require a particularly thick wall, which broadens the installation possibilities in different types of construction, both in new builds and renovations.

Regarding the general illumination of the space, the power of 3W may seem low, but in a recessed wall luminaire the goal is not always to illuminate an entire room. In many cases, the wall light acts as ambient or accent lighting, complementing other light sources. In a bedroom, for example, it can serve as a lateral night light beside the bed. In a bathroom, it can be combined with overhead lighting to achieve a balanced distribution.

On a staircase or in a hallway, several recessed wall lights installed at the same height create a visual line that guides the path without the need for intense direct lighting. The design of the PLAS, with its simple shape and neutral color, allows it to be installed in series without the overall result feeling cluttered. The lamp adapts to both modern interiors and spaces with a more classic or eclectic style, as long as white or neutral finishes predominate on the walls.

Compatibility with voltages between 100V and 240V ensures that it works correctly with the standard electrical installation in Spain and the rest of Europe, without the need for additional transformers.

Questions and answers

Is the PLAS luminaire fully recessed into the wall or does it protrude?

It is a recessed wall luminaire with a depth of 50 mm. It is inserted into a recess made in the wall, with the plaster body flush or nearly flush with the surface. The result is an integrated wall light with minimal outward projection.

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

The high-power LED is included in the lamp. There is no need to purchase any additional light source. The wall light comes ready to connect and install.

Is the 2700K color temperature suitable for a bathroom or a bedroom?

Yes. A temperature of 2700K produces warm light, close to that of a classic incandescent bulb. In a bathroom or a bedroom, that type of light creates a relaxed atmosphere and avoids the feeling of coldness generated by higher temperatures.
