Why Add Wall Lights to Your Staircase?
-
Safety: Proper lighting helps prevent trips and falls, especially in low-light conditions.
-
Ambience: Wall-mounted lighting adds warmth and mood to transitional spaces.
-
Design Feature: Use lights to accentuate a staircase’s curve or materials like timber, glass, or wrought iron.
Popular Styles of Staircase Wall Lights:
-
Up-and-Down Lights: Create soft glows on the wall both above and below the fixture.
-
Glass or Crystal Wall Lights: Perfect for a luxurious look in a grand hallway.
-
Sconce Lighting: Adds character in traditional or country homes.
-
Minimalist LEDs: Blend discreetly with modern interiors.
Styling Tip: Align wall lights at regular intervals along the wall, typically shoulder height or slightly above. For high ceilings or stairwells with landings, stagger the lights to follow the flow of the steps.
