Not seen one IRL but even with the 4 lamps i suspect it wont put out a lot of light if it's fixed to the wall. To diffuse those lamps i'd guess it's gonna be fairly opaque. I've seen a picture of one suspended from the ceiling and it threw a lot of light upwards making the space feel a lot brighter so if you can offset it from the wall enough that'll help.
If it's a clear hallway and you don't mind it being dim i doubt you'll have any practicality issues but i would normally look to pair something like that with some discreet downlights that can be switched on separately. Nothing similar comes to mind (Akari/Noguchi might have a wall light) but you'll probs have the same issue whatever you go for if you want to light with a decorative wall light only.

Anyone have/had a Flos Ariette ?
It looks to have 4 x e27 fittings so in theory could provide a not insignificant amount of light? (It's for a hallway wall). All the photos of it appear dim and moody.
What else is similar? Large, vaguely 'sculptural', provides some degree of functional illumination?
