Hallway & stair run
Mix the heights — same footprint and finish, so a staggered run reads as one composition. Keep centres level at about 66″.
Set of 3 · one wall switch, equal spacing
Vanity pair
Sconces at eye level, 28–36″ apart, either side of the mirror. This fixture is IP20 (dry rooms only) — for a bathroom choose a damp-rated sconce.
01Overview
Plug-in wall sconce with adjustable arm reaches 45cm out; mounts flush to wall.
The Austere is a slender plug-in sconce with an articulating arm that extends 45cm from the wall and stands 115cm tall. It casts focused downward light suitable for reading, bedside tasks, or accent lighting without needing hardwired installation. Mount it beside a bed, above a chair, or flanking a mirror—just confirm your wall can take the mounting bracket before ordering.
