About Cadaques Outdoor Lighting

Cadaques is an outdoor luminaire designed for coastal outdoor spaces. The design combines a spacer and a light washer in one piece. The shade is made of Vertisol fabric, an outdoor textile with International Maritime Organization certification, which gives the shade resistance to adverse weather conditions. The body is made of injected aluminium. A protection rating of IP65 guards the luminaire against solid objects and water. An 18 watt LED source provides warm light at 3000 K. The form takes inspiration from beach loungers.
