Decorative wall lights often look effortless in a mood board and surprisingly awkward in reality — especially when a fixture's asymmetric form needs to read correctly relative to a door, mirror, or corridor run. Getting the orientation right before you order matters.
For a sconce like this, orientation is a genuine specification decision. The Galassia is an asymmetric design: one globe sits above the wall mount, the other extends outward on an angled arm. In a mirrored pair flanking a headboard or console, you need one Left and one Right. In a solo installation along a corridor, the direction the arm projects will define how the light interacts with the wall and the space beyond.
The Stilnovo Galassia Double Wall Light is a decorative wall-mounted sconce from Belgian brand Stilnovo, designed by Stilnovo Studio. It features a slim metal rod frame with contrasting polished gold and matte black finishes arranged along a single vertical axis, with two opal glass globes that diffuse light gently from their gold cup-socket bases. The mid-century modern aesthetic — intersecting lines, geometric proportion, sculptural asymmetry — makes it equally at home in residential living rooms, bedrooms, and corridors, or in hospitality settings such as hotel rooms and restaurant dining areas. IP20 rated, it is suitable for dry indoor environments.
The design's character comes from restraint: thin rods, a considered colour contrast, and the quiet drama of two globes at different heights and lateral positions. That sculpture-like quality means it works as a standalone statement piece or as a repeating element across a longer wall. It is available in two orientations — Right and Left — allowing symmetrical pairings or considered solo placement.
The Galassia Double Wall Light carries an IP20 rating, meaning it is designed for dry indoor use only and is not suitable for bathrooms or areas exposed to moisture. Lamp and driver details should be confirmed at point of specification; the fixture's globe sockets are designed to conceal the light source and deliver even, diffused ambient output. A two-year product warranty is included.
At Lightsource Studio, we help you specify decorative pieces like the Galassia with the same rigour applied to architectural lighting — confirming orientation, lamp compatibility, and placement before anything is ordered. It is the kind of detail that keeps projects on time and on budget, and keeps walls looking exactly as intended.
