Modern washi lamps: an entire wall glowing

A washi paper wall serving as a light source. An entire section of wall or a sliding door is washi paper embedded in a thin wooden frame, with a uniform light source hidden behind it. When lit at night, the entire surface becomes a soft glowing plane, revealing the paper's fiber direction and extremely subtle variations in brightness. The brightness of this light is not high; it is the source of ambient light for the entire room, with only one or two accent lights otherwise. During the day, it acts as a translucent partition. Avoid: using acrylic light boxes to impersonate washi paper, having light tube stripes and bright spots appear on the glowing surface, making the brightness too high and turning it into an advertising light box, creating multiple glowing walls in the same space.

一片作為光源的和紙牆。一整段牆或一道拉門是嵌在細木框裡的和紙,後方藏著均勻的光源,夜間亮起時整片變成柔和的發光面,可以看到紙的纖維走向與極細微的亮度不勻。這片光的亮度不高,是整個房間的環境光來源;其餘只有一兩盞重點光。白天它則是一片透光的隔屏。避免:使用壓克力燈箱冒充和紙、讓發光面出現燈管的條紋與亮點、把亮度做得過高變成廣告燈箱、在同一空間做多片發光牆。
