Landscape & Garden Lighting

Landscape & garden lighting

Landscape & garden lighting for villas, gardens and resorts

Bollards along the driveway, uplights under the palms, IP68 fittings in the pool, warm grazing light across the villa facade. We supply more than 150 exterior series direct from the factories that make them, and we specify every fitting for monsoon rain, salt air and ground that stays wet for six months a year. Lighting layout and calculation included — before anyone digs a trench.

What we supply

Twelve families, from a garden path to a resort estate

A night garden is built in layers — navigation, accent, atmosphere — and each layer needs a different tool. Every family below is available with poles, brackets, drivers and anchor cages so the site is supplied in one shipment. All series are quoted on request.

Park pole lantern for garden avenues and driveways by RODESIGNE
01

Park lanterns & pole lights

Lanterns on 3–6 m poles for entrance gates, drives and garden avenues, set at 15–25 m centres. More than 150 series, from strict contemporary heads to classic forms. Tapered steel or aluminium poles supplied with the fittings.

Bollard light for garden pathways by RODESIGNE
02

Bollards & pathway posts

Low fittings 300–1100 mm high along paths and parking bays: light goes down onto the surface, never into the eyes. Spaced 3–5 m apart. Die-cast aluminium, IP65, rated for continuous operation up to +50 °C ambient.

Recessed in-ground uplight for tree lighting by RODESIGNE
03

Recessed in-ground uplights

Installed flush into soil, gravel or paving: palms and trees lit from below, light lines within a driveway, accents on garden structures. Drive-over rated, IP67, sealed against irrigation and standing water.

Garden spike spotlight for uplighting trees and shrubs by RODESIGNE
04

Spike spots & garden floods

Directional light on a ground spike or bracket: trees, shrubs, sculpture, textured walls. The most flexible tool in a tropical garden, because it can be moved as the planting grows. Interchangeable 15–60° optics, 7–50 W.

Underwater IP68 pool and pond light by RODESIGNE
05

Underwater & pool lighting

For pools, ponds, cascades and water features: fully sealed IP68, safe 12/24 V supply, 316 stainless steel or brass bodies. Warm white or RGBW with DMX-512 control for dynamic scenes.

Facade wall light with up and down beams for villa exteriors by RODESIGNE
06

Facade & architectural fittings

Up-down wall fittings, linear grazers for eaves and soffits, narrow beams for columns and timber screens. The facade is what pulls the whole garden picture together. Matched to the landscape at 2700–3000 K, housings powder-coated to any RAL.

Illuminated light sculpture installation for gardens and resorts by RODESIGNE
07

Light sculptures & installations

Illuminated art objects for resort grounds, hotel arrival courts and restaurant gardens: dandelions, blossoms, jellyfish, light trees and bespoke pieces to sketch. The kind of feature guests photograph.

Solar powered autonomous garden light by RODESIGNE
08

Solar & off-grid fittings

Light where a cable cannot reasonably go: solar park lights and bollards of 15–60 W with integral batteries. No trenching, no electrician, no added load — useful on long boundary paths, jetties and remote plots. Motion sensors and energy-saving modes.

Street and driveway LED lantern for estate access roads by RODESIGNE
09

Drives & estate access roads

STREET series road lanterns of 30–300 W on brackets and poles for entrance roads, internal estate streets and car parks. Efficacy up to 170 lm/W, optics selected to the road class following IEC and CIE practice, IP65–IP67. Brackets and 4–12 m poles in the same delivery.

Tunnel and underpass luminaire for parking and service areas by RODESIGNE
10

Underpasses & basement parking

TNC tunnel series plus linear and high-bay fittings for undercrofts, basement car parks and service corridors: reinforced housings, vandal-resistant options, built to run in humidity and dust. Up to 160 lm/W, CCT 3000–6500 K.

Linear IP66 luminaire for car parks and covered passages by RODESIGNE
11

Covered walkways & back of house

Linear IP66 fittings for covered walkways, sala roofs, plant rooms and staff routes, and dome high-bays for carports and storage. The unglamorous half of a resort that still has to survive the rainy season.

Floodlight for tennis courts and sports grounds by RODESIGNE
12

Tennis courts & sports grounds

Floodlights of 150–1500 W for tennis and padel courts, five-a-side pitches and outdoor gyms: precise optics that keep light on the court instead of in the neighbouring villa, anti-glare shields, masts of 6–16 m. Courts are designed to 200–500 lx and we run the calculation.

Zone by zone

Where the light actually goes

Good landscape lighting is assembled in layers: navigation you never think about, accents that give the garden depth, and atmosphere close to the house. These are the three zones every villa scheme comes down to.

Uplit tree in a night garden by RODESIGNE
01

Palms, trees & planting

An in-ground uplight or spike spot at the trunk draws the crown out of the dark — narrow 15–25° on the trunk of a coconut palm, wide 40–60° into a frangipani or banyan canopy. Light 3–5 key specimens, not everything: the darkness between accents is what creates depth. Warm 2700–3000 K keeps tropical foliage looking alive rather than grey.

Terrace and poolside lighting in the evening by RODESIGNE
02

Terrace, sala & pool

Here light works on mood, not lux: soft marking of steps and pool copings, low-brightness wall fittings under the sala roof, IP68 fittings in the water. Everything on dimmers with scenes for dinner, party and late night. Around water we stay on 12/24 V.

Handmade copper exterior lantern by RODESIGNE
03

Gates, arrival & classic houses

For colonial and Sino-Portuguese houses the factory range is completed by hand-made copper and brass lanterns from our own workshop — pier-mounted and wall-mounted. On the coast the metal takes on a patina and only improves with it. One family from gate to porch to path.

Built for the tropics

Specified for monsoon, salt and wet ground

A fitting that lasts ten years in a dry climate can fail in one rainy season on Phuket. We select the body material, the gasket, the gland and the cable together, and we assume the ground will be saturated for half the year.

Monsoon rain & irrigation

IP65 is the minimum outdoors — it holds against sideways rain, sprinklers and dust. IP67 for anything set into soil or paving, IP68 for ponds, cascades and pools. Nothing lower goes into a garden here.

Salt air near the sea

Within a few hundred metres of the water we specify 316 stainless steel, solid brass or copper and marine-grade powder coating over die-cast aluminium. Fixings, glands and pole bases in the same class — corrosion always starts at the screw.

Wet ground & termites

Buried fittings sit in a drained gravel bed rather than a puddle; cables run in conduit that termites cannot chew through. Junctions are resin-filled and made above ground level wherever the layout allows.

Heat, UV & humidity

Drivers sized with headroom for +50 °C ambient and mounted in ventilated, sealed enclosures out of direct sun. UV-stable lenses and finishes, because tropical sun bleaches and crazes cheap polycarbonate within a season.

Warm light for tropical green

2700–3000 K across the garden: palms, heliconia and lawn read as living material. Cool 4000 K is reserved for service yards and parking. CRI 80 and above so timber, stone and planting keep their colour.

Dark-sky discipline

Light the object, not the sky. Shielded optics, glare cowls and accurate aiming keep spill out of bedroom windows, off the neighbouring plot and away from beaches where turtles nest. It also cuts insects around the terrace.

Before you order

Four decisions that outlive the fittings

These are settled before anything is bought, and they decide how the garden looks in five years rather than five weeks.

Ingress protection

IP65 for lawn, facade and paths; IP67 for anything set into paving or soil; IP68 for ponds, fountains and pools. Housing in die-cast aluminium with powder coating, or 316 stainless and brass on the coast.

12/24 V or 230 V

Low voltage is safer around water and children and can be run without deep trenching; 230 V suits long runs and taller park poles. Most villas end up hybrid: 230 V to the drive and poles, 24 V to in-ground and underwater fittings.

Transformers & drivers

Housed in sealed, ventilated enclosures with 20% spare capacity, positioned out of the sun and above flood level. The supply scheme is fixed in the design before any earthworks begin.

Colour temperature

2700–3000 K as the garden baseline; 4000 K only for parking and service yards. Mixing temperatures across a garden is the fastest way to make an expensive scheme look cheap.

Dark sky & spill

Shielded optics and precise focus so light lands on the object and not in the sky, the neighbour's bedroom or a nesting beach. Fewer insects on the terrace is a useful side effect.

Control

The baseline is an astronomical time clock that switches at sunset without anyone touching it. Then zones and scenes: navigation all night, accents until midnight, a party setting on demand. Motion sensors on service routes, DMX-512 and RGBW where colour and movement are wanted.

How we work

Design first, fittings second

The most common mistake in landscape lighting is buying fittings before there is a layout: paths glare, trees look flat, and the cable gets dug up twice. Our lighting studio produces the scheme for the plot — fixture layout by zone, calculation, supply and control diagrams, and a specification. When the lighting package is supplied through RODESIGNE, the design fee is credited against the order.

Lighting calculation and landscape lighting design layout by RODESIGNE
Design

Lighting layout & calculation

Fixture positions by zone, beam angles, calculated levels, 230/24 V supply and control diagrams, and a specification you can build from. Produced before trenches, paving or planting are set out.

Exterior luminaire production facility by RODESIGNE
Manufacture

Full-cycle factories behind the range

Metalworking shops, hot-dip galvanising, powder coating, assembly lines and in-house pole production. That is why bespoke sizes, RAL colours and project volumes are realistic rather than theoretical.

Landscape lighting fixtures and poles supplied for a project by RODESIGNE
Supply

One shipment, one responsibility

Fittings, poles, brackets, anchor cages, drivers, transformers and controls arrive together with a packing list that matches the specification — instead of four suppliers blaming each other on site.

Catalogues

Catalogues by direction, sent on request

Park lanterns, bollards, architectural, in-ground and underwater, light sculptures, solar, poles and accessories, STREET road lanterns, tunnel and industrial series, sports floodlights and smart poles with cameras, Wi-Fi and charging modules. If a series is not in the catalogue we can usually build to your parameters — most housings adapt.

FAQ

Common questions

The questions that come up before a garden lighting order.

Which fittings do I need for garden paths?

Bollards 300–1100 mm high with downward-directed light: they wash the surface and do not glare, set at 3–5 m centres. Where the design wants nothing visible, use in-ground fittings within the paving or marker lighting in the step risers instead.

How do you light a palm or a tree properly?

With an in-ground uplight or a spike spot at the base, aimed upward: a narrow 15–25° beam for a trunk, a wide 40–60° beam for a canopy. Keep the colour temperature at 2700–3000 K. Light 3–5 key specimens rather than every plant — alternating light and darkness is what gives a night garden depth. Spike spots can be repositioned as the planting grows, which matters in a climate where growth is fast.

12/24 V or 230 V?

Around water, in the ground and near children's areas use low voltage at 12/24 V — safer and simpler to install. For long runs and taller park poles use 230 V. Most private gardens end up hybrid: 230 V to the drive and pole lanterns, 24 V to in-ground and underwater fittings. Transformers go in sealed, ventilated enclosures with about 20% spare capacity.

What IP rating do outdoor fittings need in Phuket?

IP65 as a minimum in the open, for driving rain, irrigation and dust. IP67 for anything recessed into soil or paving. IP68 for pools, ponds and fountains. Bodies in die-cast aluminium with powder coating, or 316 stainless steel and brass where salt air is a factor. Drivers are sized for a +50 °C ambient.

Will landscape fittings survive monsoon season and salt air?

Yes, if they are specified for it rather than bought on price. The failure points here are gaskets, cable glands, buried joints and fixings — not the LED. We use marine-grade materials near the coast, resin-filled joints, conduit that termites cannot chew, and drained gravel beds under in-ground fittings so they are not sitting in a puddle for six months.

Are solar fittings worth it?

Yes, where a cable is expensive or impossible: far boundary paths, a jetty, a remote corner of the plot. Modern autonomous fittings of 15–60 W with a battery and motion sensor run through the night. For the main zones of a garden a cabled network is still more stable, especially through a long rainy season with limited sun.

What is dark-sky lighting and why does it matter here?

It means aiming light at the object rather than the sky: shielded optics, glare cowls, accurate focus. Practically, it keeps spill out of bedrooms and neighbouring plots, protects nesting beaches, gives you a night sky worth looking at, and draws far fewer insects onto the terrace.

How much does landscape lighting cost?

It depends on the area and the number of zones: the budget is made up of fittings, poles, cabling, controls and installation. All series are quoted on request. We supply direct from the factories rather than through distributors, and our studio does the layout so you are not buying fittings you do not need. Send a site plan and we will price the package.

Do I need a lighting design for a private garden?

For anything from roughly 600–1000 m² upward, yes. The design fixes zones, fixture positions, the supply route and the control strategy before earthworks. That is far cheaper than re-laying cable after the paths are paved and the planting is in. When the lighting is supplied through RODESIGNE, the design fee is credited against the order.

Do you supply lighting for resorts and larger developments?

Yes. Behind the range are full-cycle factories with their own pole production, galvanising and powder coating, so we supply park and road lanterns of 30–300 W for resort grounds, condominium landscape, promenades and public spaces, complete with technical data sheets, certificates and specifications for tender and consultant approval. Send the drawings or the bill of quantities and we will price the package and confirm lead times.

How do I get the catalogues?

Catalogues for each direction — park lanterns, bollards, architectural, underwater, solar, poles and the rest — are sent as PDFs on request. Message us on WhatsApp or LINE, or email us, naming the direction you need.
