Nebula is a collection of outdoor luminaires that offer a high degree of design freedom in the realisation of sophisticated and efficient lighting arrangements. Its recognisable appearance blends seamlessly into contemporary cityscape environments, adding modern accents to historic locations. The concept is inspired by theatre lighting, where each light is being controlled independently and can be added or removed as required. Moreover, they can also be adjusted to point in various directions or directly focus on individual objects. This flexibility has been transferred to Nebula, making the luminaire family a configurable collection composed of an illuminating bollard, a path light, and full-height lighting system. The latter comprises four pole height options in two diameters and three luminaire head sizes that rotate, tilt and move up or down vertically. Depending on the respective height, the poles can accommodate a certain number of rings. The rings serve for mounting and seamlessly integrating a variety of accessories – including banner holders, planters, motion sensors or cameras. In addition, the collection offers a wide spectrum of colours and finishes. This also includes a transparent luminaire head whose body can be illuminated decoratively from the inside. In translucent rose colour, it evokes images of Venice, as this is the same hue used in the Murano glass of the city’s historic lanterns.
Statement by the Jury
With its reduced yet iconic appearance, Nebula establishes a new typology of outdoor luminaires for enhancing the urban environments to outstanding effect without being obtrusive. Furthermore, the outdoor luminaire collection also inspires with its modular concept and customisability, whereby Nebula innovatively responds to different requirements.
