Reed, Design by Lodes, 2025

Its name reveals its inspiration: a slender, vertical metal stem emerging from ground like a plant, ready to illuminate with quiet elegance, whether alone or in compositions.

The stem can be paired with three organically shaped diffusers – two flattened sphere versions inspired by the delicacy of dandelion flowers, and an elongated one reminiscent of the lightness of slender stalks – designed to blend naturally into the landscape and compose evocative lighting scenes. Each configuration interacts with the surrounding environment, creating atmospheres where light, shadows, and shapes merge to convey the impression of a natural extension of the vegetation itself.

Available in three stem heights and four finishes – anthracite, natural brown, natural green, and champagne – Reed is designed for direct ground installation. A portion of the stem, buried and hidden after installation, allows it to be freely tilted to camouflage itself within the greenery and gently diffuse light, enhancing textures, volumes, and details with great delicacy.

Reed is the ideal solution for outdoor settings that foster a strong connection between nature, light, and architecture. In residential areas and green spaces of hotels and commercial buildings, it enhances paths, garden edges, and terraces with a discreet yet decorative presence that promotes an aesthetic balance of sensory emotion and visual wellbeing. It also adds a sober and elegant touch to parks and courtyards, where it harmoniously integrates among shrubs and bushes, becoming part of the landscape itself to create lighting scenes in harmony with the vegetation and architectural context.
