The Artemide Effetto Wall Light is a wall light designed by Ernesto Gismondi in 2013. In Artemide's words: “Defined by its name ("effect" in Italian), Effetto tells a powerful scenographic story. Used in modular configuration, the wall mounted luminaire with single, double or for light beams is designed to create architectural effects using two beam options of narrow and wide.” Choose finish, size and the light source on this page.

About the designer
Ernesto Gismondi (1931–2020), an aeronautical engineer by training, founded Artemide in 1960 with Sergio Mazza and led it for six decades, turning it into one of the world's leading lighting companies. He also designed many Artemide lamps himself, and in 2018 he received a Compasso d'Oro career award.

Who this is not for
- Renters or anyone without an electrician: it is hardwired to a junction box.
- Anyone who needs it soon when choosing a special-order option: those are ordered from Italy and take 10–16 weeks.

Our Lighting Advisor's Verdict
Our Lighting Advisor's Verdict
★ Lighting Advisor's Verdict☀ Outdoor-Rated🇮🇹 Made in ItalyDesigned by Ernesto Gismondi✓ cULus listedIP65 rated5-year Artemide warranty
The Effetto Wall Light by Ernesto Gismondi is one we recommend for outdoor-rated construction.
Choose it for bedside reading, hallways, living rooms and offices; anywhere floor and table space is tight.
Not ideal for renters or anyone without an electrician: it is hardwired to a junction box.
Our pick: White with LED 4.6W · 3000K · 1 beam Wide Flood, for integrated LED, so there are no bulbs to buy and 3000K light, warm but clear. That version ships from Artemide in 2–4 weeks.
