Wall Lights Overview
Modern, functional, and atmospheric
A well-placed wall light can instantly transform the atmosphere of a room. It provides pleasant illumination, creates targeted accents and complements your main lighting exactly where you need it. At EGLO, you’ll find a wide selection of indoor wall lights that combine design and functionality. Whether you are looking for subtle ambient lighting or a striking wall-mounted feature, there is a solution for every room. Our indoor wall lights are as versatile as your home – from modern LED wall lights to flexible rechargeable models. This makes it easy to find the right wall lighting for any space, combining style, practicality and comfort.
Wall lights for indoor spaces
Indoor wall lights are ideal when you want to distribute light purposefully throughout a room. They complement ceiling lighting and create additional lighting zones, making them perfect for living rooms, hallways and bedrooms. Many indoor wall lamps can be installed flexibly and positioned at different heights. For comfortable ambient lighting, a guideline of approximately 100–150 lm/m² is often used in living and sleeping areas. Indoor wall lights are available in a variety of sizes and designs, from subtle and understated to bold statement pieces. This allows you to create specific accents or achieve a calm and balanced lighting effect.
LED wall lights
LED wall lights provide efficient and evenly distributed illumination. Modern LED technology offers versatile lighting options for everyday use. Warm white light (2,700–3,300 Kelvin) is commonly chosen for living rooms, bedrooms and dining areas. In bathrooms and home offices, neutral white light (3,300–5,300 Kelvin) is often preferred. This helps you choose wall lighting that is well suited to the specific requirements of each room.
Wall lights by room
Wall lights can be used effectively in almost any room. In living rooms, they create a welcoming atmosphere; in bedrooms, they provide soft and relaxing light; and in hallways, they improve visibility and orientation. Wall lighting complements general lighting exactly where additional illumination is needed. In kitchens, bathrooms and offices, brighter lighting should be considered. Around 250–300 lm/m² is often recommended to ensure practical and functional illumination.
Functional wall lights
Many modern wall lights include practical additional features. These may include dimmable lighting, adjustable elements or integrated switches. This allows you to use your lighting flexibly – whether as a reading light, accent light or practical everyday lighting solution.
Cordless & rechargeable wall lights
Cordless indoor wall lights offer maximum flexibility. They can be placed exactly where light is needed, regardless of existing electrical connections. These indoor wall lights are particularly suitable for rental properties, staircases or as an additional light source. Despite operating on rechargeable batteries, they provide reliable and attractive wall lighting.
Wall lights for living rooms, bedrooms & hallways
In living spaces, wall lights create a comfortable atmosphere, while in bedrooms they provide calm and relaxing illumination. In hallways, they improve orientation and add a sense of safety.
Bathroom wall lights & mirror areas
In bathrooms, even wall lighting is particularly important. Choose models with at least an IP44 rating, especially when installed close to mirrors.
Reading lights & bedside wall lights
A wall light beside the bed saves space and provides focused reading light. Models with adjustable arms or dimming functions are especially practical.
Design wall lights
Indoor wall lamps are also an important design feature. Black wall lights and contemporary designs create stylish accents and add character to a room.

How bright should a wall light be?
For living rooms and bedrooms, approximately 100–150 lm/m² is commonly used as a guideline. In kitchens, bathrooms and home offices, around 250–300 lm/m² is often more appropriate. The actual lighting requirement always depends on the room size, intended use and existing ambient lighting.
Which light colour is best for wall lights?
Warm white light (2,700–3,300 K) is commonly chosen for living rooms, bedrooms and dining areas. Neutral white light (3,300–5,300 K) is often preferred for bathrooms and home offices. The most suitable light colour depends on how the room is used and your personal preferences.
Where should a wall light be installed?
Wall lights are typically mounted at a height of approximately 1.60–1.80 metres. In bedrooms or when used as reading lights, the installation height can be adjusted according to the intended use.
Are cordless wall lights a good solution?
Yes, cordless indoor wall lights are ideal when no electrical connection is available. They offer flexible placement options and are easy to install.
How many wall lights should I use in a room?
This depends on the size of the room. For balanced lighting, it is often best to combine multiple wall lights or use them to create targeted lighting accents rather than relying on a single light source.
