Choosing a wall light for a corridor, bathroom vanity, or feature wall often comes down to one overlooked detail: glare. A fitting that exposes its light source directly creates hotspots and visual discomfort, undermining even the most considered interior scheme.
For linear wall lights, the way the light source is housed matters as much as the output itself. A recessed or shielded channel directs light where it is needed — onto the wall or work surface — while keeping the source itself out of the direct line of sight. This is sometimes called indirect or semi-indirect illumination, and it is the difference between ambience and a lamp staring back at you.
The Stilnovo Tablet, designed by Mirco Crosatto, answers this directly. Its slim, low-profile rectangular housing conceals the light source within a recessed underside channel, dividing emission across two optical segments within a single continuous linear frame. The angled body profile directs light downward and toward the wall, making it well suited to wall washing, mirror or vanity lighting, and artwork highlighting. With an IP40 rating, it is appropriate for dry interior environments including living spaces, bedrooms, hallways, and non-wet-zone bathrooms.
The Tablet is defined by its architectural restraint — smooth, seam-free surfaces with no visible fixings on the primary faces, integrating cleanly into contemporary and minimal interiors. It is available in White or Black, allowing it to recede into or contrast against the wall surface as the scheme requires.
The Tablet is rated IP40, confirming suitability for dry interior locations only — not suitable for bathroom wet zones.
