The Wall Mounted Uplight or “Wash Light”
These luminaires are often mounted on columns and other vertical surfaces to accent the vertical surface and direct light upwards onto the ceiling or lid above. They are useful for adding an ambient glow and accenting unique ceiling architecture. These luminaires can be surface mounted to project from a surface
or can recess to create a “hole in the wall” effect. These luminaires are available in numerous decorative styles or can disappear to have almost no impression at all. Some commonly-specified versions of wall surface mounted uplights are from Winona, Elliptipar and Insight. Some wall recessed versions are made by Belfer, Energie, Eurolite and Deltalight.

The “Glowing Disc” Area Light
Often times an afterthought, some sort of surface mounted area light should be considered for small spaces or utility areas. Too often, these small spaces are left to recessed luminaires that direct most of their lighting effect downward, leaving the space dark and cave-like. A simple dish or slightly decorative disc can
provide light onto the ceiling and walls as well as downward. Some commonly- specified versions are from Tech lighting and Eureka lighting.
