Norma Wall Light

As an architect i a few Nomo fixtures in my home. The is a heavyweight wall mounted fixture with an opalescent glass canopy. No cheap plastic like acrylic or polycarbonate. The quality of light is wonderful. A small criticism: In international architectural circles the US is known as the "land of no can do" and unfortunately that raises its ugly head here. Because US building practices and codes requie a 4" octagobal juction box for light fixtures, the Italuan designers are forced to provide a 4" square junction box cover that is plainly visible behind the fixture. An unfortunate compromise to meet the ossified building codes under which are forced to labor.

The write up on the web sight said that the glass cover was white, however when I opened the box the glass cover was not white but a beige colour and not an even beige, but mottled in color, as if someone had tried to antique it with paint. It was quite a contrast to what is a modern fixture. Which was too bad as the metal fittings were very solid looking. I would have waited for the right size to be sent but I decided not to as the glass was not nice at all.

Love this modern light. Sleek and stylish

These fixtures are very clean-lined and sleek and give great light. I used them vertically in a modern ensuite bathroom on either side of the mirror and they are perfect.
