A unique approach to lighting the modern home, the Whare Wall Sconce from Visual Comfort Studio, formerly known as ED Ellen DeGeneres, shields the light from coming into the room, instead splaying it across the wall for a tasteful approach to ambient lighting. A clean rectangular metal wallplate extends a brief, thin arm that immediately curves upward and holds the cylindrical lamp base. The base extends a secondary arm that curves up and around, expanding into a wide circular plate. The light from the bulb instead spreads across the wall, creating a pleasing accent light.
