Outdoor lamps

Outdoor chandeliers play an essential role in decorating outdoor spaces. Indeed, by adding these elements, gardens, balconies, terraces and patios can be drastically transformed and enhanced. 

Among the most significant reasons for opting to purchase an outdoor lamp is, without a doubt, safety. Adequate lighting in outdoor areas helps prevent accidental falls by making steps and potential obstacles more visible. Light can also deter the entry of strangers, contributing to a safer environment inside and outside the home.
In addition to improving visibility at night, however, a designer outdoor lamp actively participates in creating an attractive and relaxing atmosphere.

An outdoor floor lamp, for example, designed with appealing lines, is capable of blending in perfectly with the architectural style of the home, thus providing a graceful and elegant touch. In addition, these lamps are a versatile option that can create bright focal points in the most iconic areas of your green space.
Given the wide range of styles and types available on the market, however, it can be really difficult to choose the most suitable model for your needs.

Designer outdoor lamps: styles and types

In the field of outdoor lighting, chandeliers and floor lamps can radically renew outdoor spaces, giving them style and personality. This is made possible by the wide range of types and designs that characterise these elements. 

A modern outdoor lamp, for example, is characterised by clean, minimalist lines that blend well with contemporary environments, such as urban or japandi style. Often made of aluminium or stainless steel, materials resistant to time and weather, they create unique and surprising atmospheres for all design lovers. A modern outdoor chandelier is perfect for the most avant-garde and sophisticated patios and gardens. Usually equipped with innovative LED technology, these lights offer a bright and uniform brightness that enhances every corner. From maxi to the smallest sizes, these lights are available in a wide range of shapes, each to suit every taste.

On the other end of the stylistic spectrum, but equally popular, are vintage-style outdoor lamps, evoking a romantic, retro air. 

Characterised by ornaments and finishes often made of copper or wrought iron, these elements can lend a rustic and convivial character to any outdoor space. A true reminder of warm and cosy atmospheres, excellent for relaxation. Emblematic of this category is the classic outdoor wall lamp with its elegant design, typical of Victorian cafés.

An excellent alternative is also the outdoor floor lamps. These consist of a tall, slender structure that can rise above small trees and shrubs. As well as providing a good source of lighting for paths in the garden, they create a truly impressive and attractive scenic effect. 
Made of many different materials such as metal and wood, floor lamps perfectly complement any surrounding landscape. An outdoor floor lamp is therefore the ideal choice to illuminate outdoor spaces with elegance and sophistication.

Outdoor chandeliers: factors to consider when choosing

When you want to purchase a lighting element for outdoor spaces, be it a garden floor lamp or an outdoor balcony lamp, you need to consider a few factors such as:

- Weather and weather resistance: outdoor lamps must be designed to withstand various weather conditions such as rain, sun, humidity, wind and snow. Be sure to opt for elements made of corrosion-resistant materials such as aluminium and stainless steel, or high-quality plastics;

- Type of lighting: a particularly large area needs a fairly bright light. In this case, a modern outdoor floor lamp becomes an excellent choice. This, thanks to the smart technology that often characterises such models, can integrate dimming or the possibility of changing colour, making it extremely versatile;

- Energy efficiency: opting for an LED outdoor balcony lamp can be an environmentally friendly and economical choice in the long run. Such bulbs consume less energy than conventional bulbs and have a much longer lifespan;

- Design and style: the outdoor chandelier should suit one's personal taste and the architectural style of the outdoors. Artemide outdoor lamps, for example, add an elegant and refined note that goes well with any décor. For its part, an outdoor lamp from Foscarini is renowned for its bold and innovative shapes, as well as for the quality of the materials used to make it. Choosing one of these models adds beauty and originality to spaces. Finally, it is impossible not to mention at least one outdoor lamp by Enzo Catellani, an iconic Italian designer with a truly bold creative flair. His care and attention to detail has resulted in true luminous works of art;

- Ease of installation and maintenance: this aspect is particularly important considering its exposure to dust and atmospheric agents that can inevitably affect its durability and luminous efficiency. In the case of a balcony wall light, for example, its installation position can make maintenance a challenging task, especially for the inexperienced. Choosing a model designed for easy installation and care can make this task less onerous and more efficient over time;

- Budget: it is important to find a solution that meets your lighting and style needs without exceeding your personal financial possibilities. That is why our outdoor lamps are available in a wide range of price ranges.
