Why We Love Retail Store Wall Sconces
Retail store wall lights are just the thing you need to showcase your products and guide customers as they make their way throughout your store. You'll have many modern wall lights to choose from, and you can make use of them all over your store, both in the store itself and behind the scenes. There is more to storefront wall lights than you might initially think, so read on to learn all about these versatile lights and how to make them work for you in your retail store.
Why Choose Wall Lighting for Your Storefront
From the front entry to your store to the delivery area at the back, you can use retail store wall lights to give the illumination you, your workers and your customers need to see clearly. Sconces and other decorative storefront wall lights are great for brightening up the entrance to your store, while lights that are simpler in design are ideal for highlighting your products, as they won't attract as much attention to themselves. You can also use modern wall lights to fill in any darker areas of your store so that every corner feels inviting.
Retail Wall Light Ideas for Every Style
Depending on the overall vibe of your store, you'll need different styles of retail store wall lights to complement your products and other decor. Modern Forms, for example, designs storefront wall lights that are elegant and classic, making them a great option for luxury stores. Visual Comfort's creations are traditional in style as well, though they are more on the casual side. Jonathan Adler likes to play around with shape and color in his modern wall lights, creating unique sconces and other light fixtures. Kuzco Lighting's designs are decidedly modern, and LZF delivers sculptural lights that double as pieces of art.
How to Choose the Best Retail Store Wall Sconces
Once you have chosen a general style for your retail store wall lights, you can start to think about the specific varieties that will work best in your store. Try using storefront wall lights as accent lighting for your star products. LED wall sconces can help you save on your electricity bills while also adding beauty to your store. Think about the placement of each light carefully so that it can have the biggest impact. Vary the heights of your wall-mounted display lights to keep everything from looking flat. The goal is to add not just light, but visual interest as well.
Other Considerations
In addition to retail store wall lights, you'll want to incorporate other lighting styles in your store as well. For example, retail store track lighting can fill out the light in the center of your store where your storefront wall lights can't reach. Under cabinet lighting can provide extra illumination in your employee break room, and retail chandeliers can tie your modern wall lights and sconces together if they are of a similar style. Think about each light individually, but also consider your lighting design as a whole to ensure everything works well together.
