The story
The Section Wall Sconce extends Paul Coenen's Section collection into lighting, applying the same formal language that defines the furniture series.
The piece takes the form of a matte light-grey rectangular volume, its surface carrying a concrete-like texture that reads as stone. Vertical side panels frame a central sectioned area, horizontal and vertical lines dividing the face into distinct panels. The symmetry is strict, the proportions blocky, giving the piece an architectural presence more akin to a wall-mounted element than to conventional decorative lighting.
Coenen's approach to materials holds here: the finish foregoes polish, the geometry remains derived from construction logic rather than an aesthetic idea applied to the surface. In Section, every piece begins with what the material allows.
Mounted on the wall, the Section Wall Sconce reads as a three-dimensional fragment of the same formal system expressed across the Section collection, from the Section Bench to the Section Desk.
About Paul Coenen
Paul Coenen (b. 1992) is a designer based in Eindhoven, the Netherlands, whose work embodies an experimental, hands-on approach rooted in a deep fascination with materials and the interplay between modern and traditional manufacturing techniques.
With each project, Coenen works to unearth the possibilities and limitations of his chosen materials, letting them guide and shape the outcome. The final form of each object is a direct consequence of the materials used and the techniques applied, not of pre-conceived design intentions. This gives his pieces a material authenticity that places them firmly within the Dutch experimental design tradition, where Eindhoven's culture has long nurtured makers who put investigation before convention.
His Section collection, exclusive to Monde Singulier, brings this philosophy into sharp focus. The formal language is spare: repetition, proportion, and the logic of industrial process made visible. Pieces such as the Section Bench, two U-shaped concrete volumes joined at center, and the Section Large Mirror, with its understated metallic frame and subtle double-edge detailing, arrive at their forms through the process itself. Function is present but never announced.
Coenen belongs to a generation of emerging Dutch designers whose collectible work earns its authority through the integrity of its making, not through decoration.
