This is our core collection of decorative wall fixtures, the pieces chosen as much for how they look at noon as for how they glow at night. It leans modern: long linear bars that stretch along a facade, crisp rectangles in black steel, alabaster and marble look panels, round concrete discs, and cutout scenes of mountains, moons and trees that project a picture onto the wall. Traditional homes are covered too, with cast aluminum wall lanterns, a nautical glass sconce and retro bronze styles. We also carry a lit house number fixture and a gate wall light.

Choosing for Your Architecture

• Follow the lines of the house: Long horizontal bars suit low ranch and contemporary homes; tall vertical rectangles suit narrow entries and two story facades.
• Material and texture: Die cast aluminum and stainless steel are common choices for coastal and wet climates, while stone look and concrete finishes add texture to plain siding.
• Light pattern: Some fixtures glow through a panel, some cast a beam up and down, and scenery designs paint a silhouette on the wall. Decide which effect fits each spot.
• Weather exposure: A wall facing prevailing wind and rain takes more water than a sheltered porch, so check the IP rating before you choose.

Placement tip: On a long blank wall beside the garage, space two or three matching fixtures evenly at the same height. Repetition turns a dull stretch of siding into a deliberate design feature.
