OP, a wall sconce is functionally 3 parts: the cover you see, the electrical fixture it hides, and the bracket the fixture attaches to (that's screwed to the electrical box). The designer's job is to disguise how the cover attaches to the fixture; no screws or latches.

That means the cover's most likely slid on to lock it in place letting gravity and friction do the rest. Think slot and tab where the slot's on the fixture and the cover's tabs have downward pointing teeth. Gently push the cover upward until you feel something give and then just as gently pull away from the wall.

>turn it
The cover surrounds bulbs in a vertical configuration with no clearance for turning, and would crack them if that were the design.

Try to jam a small laptop under it

If it breaks, you can hold it up with the neck of a plastic doll toy

Is that plastic (flexible)? If so, try squeezing it to release the diffuser from those side clips.

Who designs shit like this? Have they ever used a lamp? Do they live in the real world?

people who went to "design school"

they get brainwashed into form over function and that every shitty design is great

this. As an internal light fixture, the lens will only be held on with spring clips or slide off. dont try to force it.

you're confused. the designer didnt force the owner to buy it. the previous owner liked it. because they thought it looked cool. sure i'd like everything laid out like an industrial site with clear fluoro glow in the dark signage for operating everything. and you'll find some of that stuff in engineering faculty buildings. went to one that had straight hallways through the centre, all the utilities were in the central conduit, easily accessible along the full length of the building with latched access panels the full length. if anything ever failed or needed upgrading, you just openned the panels instead of fucking around threading pipe and cable and demolishing walls to access it all.
