Britta Private Residence
Project Gallery: Britta, Private Residence
Project Overview
The Britta Private Residence features a thoughtfully renovated attic bedroom, where architectural skylights bring in natural light and angled ceilings create a cozy, modern retreat. To enhance the space while maintaining a minimalist aesthetic, Belfer WS7215 WedgeLens LED wall sconces in White Powder Coat were installed. The fixtures offer subtle, indirect illumination and visually blend into the white walls, preserving the clean lines and openness of the room.
Lighting Solution
The WS7215 WedgeLens wall sconce was selected for its slim profile and indirect light distribution, ideal for compact or low-ceiling environments like attic spaces. The White Powder Coat finish was matched to the surrounding wall color, allowing the fixtures to disappear into the architecture while still providing soft, ambient light.
Fixture Specifications:
-
Model: WS7215 WedgeLens LED Wall Sconce
-
Light Source: LED, 3000K warm white
-
Dimming: ELV dimmable for custom ambiance
-
Finish: White Powder Coat for low-contrast wall integration
-
Distribution: Indirect uplight for soft, diffused illumination
Design Intent
The design goal was to create a serene, light-filled attic retreat where the lighting would support the natural brightness from skylights without cluttering the walls. The WS7215’s unobtrusive shape and color allow it to fade into the background while delivering comfortably balanced light during evening hours.
Installation Highlights
-
Fixtures mounted on attic walls beneath skylights

Indirect light complements natural daylight from above

Project Overview
This thoughtfully renovated attic study in a private Minnesota residence transforms a once-unused space into a bright, modern home office. The design balances architectural charm with contemporary function, calling for a lighting solution that was compact, efficient, and visually minimal. Belfer’s WS7215 Wedge Lens LED wall sconces were the perfect fit—delivering warm, indirect illumination while preserving the clean lines and cozy character of the attic's sloped ceilings and walls.
Lighting Solution
The WS7215 Wedge Lens LED wall sconce was installed along the angled walls and vertical surfaces of the attic office. Its low-profile form and soft uplight make it ideal for small or narrow spaces where headroom and wall space are limited.

Design Intent
The goal of this attic conversion was to create a peaceful, light-filled workspace that didn’t rely on harsh overhead lighting. The WS7215's angled body casts light upward, allowing it to gently bounce off the pitched ceiling, visually opening the room and minimizing glare.
The fixtures provide functional task lighting during work hours and soft ambient light for evening use, helping the attic become a multipurpose retreat for reading, writing, and thinking.
Installation Highlights
-
Compact size fits seamlessly within low ceiling geometry
