Tips for Choosing 4 Type Different Modern Wall Sconces

Wall sconces can offer you a good lighting effect and a beautiful decoration for the space.

Wall sconces are ideal for brightening up and adding layered task lighting to any space. When searching for the perfect wall sconce, there are a few essential factors you’ll want to keep in mind.

Wall sconces come in many different shapes and sizes to create different effects with light. That's why you should consider what kind of effect you want the light to have on your room. Do you want your room to look bigger, cozier, more balanced? These four types of wall sconces are able to change the look and feel of a room by diffusing and contouring light in their own way.

Uplight – Uplight wall sconces direct light towards the ceiling, creating a wash of light that draws attention upwards. The further down the wall an uplight wall sconce is positioned, the more the light will be able to spread along the upper half of the wall. Uplight sconces are perfect for making the room look larger than it really is.

Downlight – To give your walls a downward wash of light, use a downlight sconce that allows light to only escape from the bottom of the fixture.  The higher you place this sconce, the more light will be cast down onto the wall. Downlight sconces will ground your space, creating a warm and cozy atmosphere.

Up/Downlight – Up/downlight sconces will give your walls an even wash of light in both directions. Because these types of sconces allow light to shine through the top and bottom of the fixture, they can be positioned according where you want the most light. These sconces will give your room a more balanced feel with its even distribution of light.

Candle Style/Low Wattage – As you can tell from the name, candle wall sconces are meant to resemble original wall sconces that held real wax candles. These types of sconces are usually low-wattage and cast minimal light to give a room an intimate ambiance. Their main function is for aesthetics and decoration, so you won’t want to use them as a main source of light.

So, which type do you want better?
