Faro Blind Wall Lamp - Dark Grey

An adjustable beacon that shapes its own beam

The Blind is a crisp, architectural exterior wall light from Faro Barcelona, and this version wears a deep dark grey (anthracite) finish that settles quietly against brick, render, timber or stone. Its clean rectangular block form is deliberately understated, but the clever detail sits underneath: a set of adjustable internal fins, the "blind" that gives the light its name, which let you shape and steer the beam rather than simply flooding the wall.

Those movable wings mean the light can throw a single wash or a twin beam that grazes both up and down the wall, so you can tune it for practical brightness by a door or a softer decorative glow along a façade. It is a genuinely versatile fitting that looks considered by day and does real work after dark.

The dark grey finish

The body is made of cast aluminium with a transparent glass diffuser, and the dark grey powder coat is chosen to weather exterior life while reading as modern and low key. The matt anthracite tone flatters contemporary and traditional exteriors alike and hides the elements better than a paler finish, which makes it a natural choice for front elevations, garden walls and darker cladding where you want the light rather than the fitting to be noticed.

How it works

Light comes from an integrated LED rated at 6W, running at a warm white 3000K colour temperature that keeps outdoor spaces welcoming rather than clinical. The LED and its driver are built in, so there is no separate bulb to buy or replace. The adjustable fins are set by hand at installation, letting you decide whether the light emits from one side or both and how wide the beam falls.

This is a hardwired mains fitting that mounts flat to the wall. Moonlight Design recommends installation by a registered NICEIC electrician.

Where it works best

With its IP65 rating the Blind is built for real outdoor exposure, being dust tight and protected against water jets from any direction, so it copes happily on open walls, beside entrances, along garden boundaries and around terraces and patios. It suits driveways, porches, courtyards and façade lighting where you want a compact, modern up and down effect. It is a good pick for anyone after clean lines and adjustable, directional exterior light rather than a fussy lantern.

Questions People Ask

What does the "Blind" name refer to on this Faro wall light?
The name refers to the adjustable internal fins inside the fitting, which open and close like a blind to control whether the Faro Blind casts light from one side, both sides, or a wider or narrower beam.

What does the IP65 rating on the Faro Blind mean?
IP65 means the Faro Blind Dark Grey is dust tight and protected against water jets from any direction, so it is built for genuinely exposed outdoor walls rather than only covered or sheltered positions.

How much light does the Faro Blind Dark Grey give out?
The Faro Blind Dark Grey uses a 6W integrated LED producing around 180 lumens of warm white 3000K light, enough for a gentle decorative wash on a wall rather than bright security lighting.

How big is the Faro Blind Dark Grey wall light?
The Faro Blind Dark Grey measures 16.5cm high, 10.5cm wide and 7.4cm deep and weighs 1.2kg, so it sits as a compact, flush block on the wall.
