My Pick: Design Professionals Select Their Favorite Wall Lights

We polled a group of design professionals to find out their favorite wall lamps. On the list of leading lights: Puck Wall Art, and Halo.

Puck Wall Art was the choice of Ronni Glaser, co-president and head of design and specification at Illuminations Inc.

Designed by Jordi Vilardell, it features two spherical forms super-imposed on one another, a simple disc design that enables wall murals in personalized arrangements. The orbs appear in silhouette like a solar eclipse casting a soft, ambient glow.

Glaser would place Puck Wall Art in a living room “because it’s the perfect backdrop for conversation areas, she says.

Mark Linklater, head buyer at Livingspace Interiors, also selected Puck Wall Art and said he would deploy it where it can command a room.

“Treat it like a piece of art as the central focus with space around it to frame it,” he says.

Paddy Walshe, lighting designer and engineer at Dlight, picked Martín Azúa’s Halo Wall, which features a simple light rod resting upon an aluminum base. Its diffuser renders the LEDs imbedded in the rod invisible, lending the lamp an ethereal look as it washes the walls in subtle illumination.

Offered with multiple light sticks, the Halo Wall lamp can be adjusted by hand into vertical, horizontal, or diagonal positions.

Walshe would position Halo in a large, double height space.
