'Our urban nocturnal environment can be compared to an unfinished pointillist
painting, because there are so many bright glary dots of lights in our field of vision.
My methodology considers avoiding those dots and tries to create a balanced picture
throughout our visual frame. I am especially fond of working on lighting designs in landscape
where light is not so easily controlled as it is in architecture.'

Bushes, trees, gardens and greenery are obviously an integral part of landscape design.
The illumination of each different natural element, throughout its evolution and seasons,
highlights the beauty of nature in its darkest hours. When light is properly cast in the natural
environment, it heightens your senses and can take you on an enchanting adventure.
All gardens and landscapes, regardless of size, have different characteristics
and will only be “well lit” if all these aspects are taken into account. Whether it concerns uplights,
flexible spot lighting, linear solutions for mounting on the floor and even bands around the trees...
in the Deltalight range you will find all kinds of solutions to emphasize the plant heritage
of the place without neglecting important themes as light pollution and wildlife preservation.
