Whether it is a private home or an accommodation facility, the outdoor lighting design is of fundamental importance and requires the same attention that is given inside.
The garden, or any other outdoor space available, represents the location’s calling card and is decisive in creating the first impression, even on an emotional level, of guests with respect to the context.
A well-structured outdoor lighting design project must be able to outline the mood of the entire location while responding to the needs of safety, visual comfort, and aesthetics.
A careful study of the spaces and the choice of designer outdoor lighting, able to combine functionality and a strong visual impact, is essential for the realization of a successful lighting project that will leave your client and guests speechless.
This is the case of the new collection of outdoor lamps by Karman, in which technology, innovation, and the desire to amaze through materials and shapes merge, creating unexpected and surprising effects.
In this article, we will see:
Leda
The night, if properly lit, can magically illuminate homes, restaurants, clubs, and accommodation facilities with plays of light and shadows, creating the atmosphere and style your client desires.
What you absolutely must not forget is that your project must provide, even for the external environment, the three levels of lighting:
They are necessary to provide an adequate amount of general light, allow you to carry out activities, and emphasize the details and strengths of the space.
To create the right atmosphere through your lighting project, it is necessary to follow a series of fundamental steps:
It will also be necessary to consider the intended use of the outdoor space.
The decorative lighting of an outdoor restaurant, for example, will have to include, in addition to lamps capable of enhancing its concept, solutions that guarantee diners a source of task lighting at the tables.
If the goal of your project is to amaze with elegance, the new Karman collection for designer outdoor lighting offers 4 different unique and innovative solutions.
Each one is marked by peculiarities and are all capable of telling a story that excites through the shapes and choice of materials to meet the needs of the most sophisticated and demanding client.
You can illuminate and decorate the most exclusive outdoor environments with taste and originality, whether it is a private home or a contract environment.
Deriving from the creativity of Edmondo Testaguzza, Abachina is the perfect solution for clients who love to play with light.
The two small white-blown glass spheres, anchored to the white or black parallelepiped metal structure, amaze because it seems like they are suspended in the air.
Placed, for example, on the sides of an entrance to a house, hotel, or restaurant, along a path, or to illuminate the poolside, they will create a unique and unforgettable atmosphere for guests.
The possibility to choose between floor lanterns and wall lamps allows Abachina to adapt to the specific needs of your lighting project.

A series of wall lights with mouth-blown glass spots in a circular shape, applied on the external walls, is perfect for highlighting a particular architectural structure or illuminating a staircase, while the table lamp will create a discreet and elegant light point on a side table.
Agua, designed by Edmondo Testaguzza and Matteo Ugolini, is capable of creating a particular glow on reflective walls and surfaces and, with its shape that evokes a drop of dew, is a perfect lamp for those who want to amaze with simplicity and refinement.

For those looking for original, modern, and unconventional designer outdoor lighting, Leda will not disappoint.
Inspired by the Greek myth of “Leda and the Swan” and designed by Debonademeo Studio, Leda is a collection of modular lighting elements which, according to tastes and the space to be illuminated, can be transformed into a suspension, floor lamp, or system.
Its structure has alternating cylindrical bars and small spheres in golden or black anodized aluminum, reminiscent of a necklace illuminated by an LED strip wrapped in a transparent and flexible silicone tube.
With a mix of femininity and technology, thanks to its ability to be customizable and installable in all directions, you can use Leda in your project according to the client’s wishes. For example, you can illuminate a large table under a portico with an arched configuration.

Aluminum "Pois" pegs in three different heights, each of which carries a spherical diffuser in white resin, will be perfect for creating an evocative setting in the garden.
To be placed, dense or rarefied, among the bushes or to outline a path leading to the house, restaurant, or hotel, they will give a touch of joy and magic to the location.
The scenographic effect of this lamp by Matteo Ugolini is guaranteed precisely by the ability of Pois to “blend in”, creating the perception of fireflies that vibrate gracefully, giving a delicate light to the architecture and natural elements.

We have seen how creating a successful outdoor lighting design project requires taking into consideration a series of factors so that the environment is adequately illuminated from both a functional and aesthetic point of view.
Choosing designer outdoor lighting that is in line with the overall concept of the location so that the final result is coherent and well balanced is fundamental.
Each one of Karman’s new lamps is extremely different. They express different ideas and have different shapes: Abachina is magical and romantic, Agua is discreet and elegant, Leda is somewhere between poetry and technology, and Pois is cheerful and playful.
