Create the atmosphere you desire in your outdoor space with LIGHT-POINT's aesthetic and robust outdoor lamps, which are perfect for both the garden, terrace, and balcony. Many of our unique, modern designer lamps are suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.
There are outdoor lamps for every taste, every place, and every purpose. The first thing to consider is what type of lighting you actually need. Your need for light is firstly more important than aesthetics. Consider whether you need light in the driveway, by the front door, in the garden, or all three, and whether you want wall lamps, spotlights, or bollard lamps. Choose the light and lamps necessary for you to orient yourself and feel secure, and to create the lighting environment and atmosphere you desire. These functions require different lamp types and lighting plans. It would be best if you ALWAYS chose lamps thoughtfully.
Outdoor lighting is many things, and much more than just mood and cosy lighting. Outdoor lamps have a range of specific functions and must meet some very practical needs, namely creating safety and security. It's about being able to find your way from the carport or driveway, not tripping and falling in the dark, and feeling safe when you come home late at night and easily finding your keys at the front door. Light also has a preventive effect, helping to keep unwelcome guests away from your property.
Once you’ve analyzed your need for light, there are a number of other considerations: What size lamp? What expression? Black, white, or rust? How many watts (brightness)? If you choose bollard lamps, how tall should they be? And how high and how close should your outdoor wall lamps be mounted?
Are there any rules I need to follow? No. You can choose outdoor lamps entirely according to your needs and taste. We can guide you and recommend that you always have an electrician install your lamps, but there are no legal requirements. How many lamps you need and how close they should be is up to you. If in doubt, you can always contact our lighting experts and advisors.
A good tip: If your outdoor area has tiles that can get slippery in wet weather, it requires more light/lamps. If you have gravel or other non-slip surfaces, less light is required.
We have a wide selection of stylish solutions for your outdoor lighting. LIGHT-POINT designs and produces lamps that can be used both indoors and outdoors – for example, MIRAGE, CUBE, and SOHO – and lamps specifically for outdoor use. You can choose between both outdoor wall lamps and garden lamps on stands in our collection of elegant, timeless outdoor lamps. See MIRAGE, BRICK, SERIOUS, and DELI, which are all wall lamps, as well as CUBE, COMPACT, ORBIT, RØRHAT, and LANTERN, which are available as both wall and bollard lamps.
TIP! You can always easily find out which variants can be used indoors and outdoors by using the "Usage" filter and selecting "Indoor / Outdoor" when you have found the lamp you want. Most of our outdoor lamps are available in black and white. MIRAGE and CUBE are also available in the colour RUST. If you want an outdoor lamp in other metal colours, we recommend that you look at RØRHAT. If you are unsure if you have chosen the right option, you are always welcome to contact us.
Whether you have a small city balcony, a standard terrace, or a large luxury lounge in the garden, it is important to decorate with good lighting design. It can create magic and make all the difference for your outdoor space.
We have a wide range of lamps that can be used both indoors and outdoors, allowing you to create a visual link between the interior and exterior.
What guidelines can I follow? The golden rule is to choose outdoor lamps that complement the architecture. At LIGHT-POINT, you can find modern, minimalist lamps that match most houses, whether you have a sleek new build, a charming brick villa, or a classic mansion. Once you have met your lighting needs, you can advantageously consider illuminating beautiful architectural details and characteristics of your house. Additionally, the best advice is to combine several types of outdoor lighting, creating an exciting lighting landscape around your home. Our skilled and professional advisors can help with overall lighting plans.
Remember that the driveway is your home's entrance. It welcomes you and your guests. Light up your guests with welcoming and elegant lamps for the driveway. After a long day at work, it is nice to walk or drive up a lit path, so remember lamps for the driveway, preferably bollard lamps, for example, CUBE or RØRHAT. Along entrance areas and pathways, it is a good idea to choose subdued lighting that acts as a guide and helps with orientation. At the front door, you should choose strong and focused wall lighting, recessed spotlights, and/or wall lamps that make it easy to find your way, keys, and simultaneously create safety and security.
We Danes love our terraces and balconies. Despite the unstable Danish weather, more of us are taking our lives outside and prioritizing spending (free) time under the open sky. The season has become longer and more flexible; we simply use our outdoor spaces more today, from early spring to late autumn. This active outdoor life also means we spend more resources on creating a well-furnished, aesthetic environment. We invest in furniture and lamps, design statements, just as if it were an extra living room. The terrace has simply gained a new status.
The right outdoor lighting helps to create the feeling of an inviting space, both as an atmosphere creator and a style marker. With LIGHT-POINT's outdoor lamps, you can work scenographically and create zones and spaces on the terrace and in your outdoor area – different sections for different functions – maybe an outdoor kitchen/grill area, a dining zone, a sofa arrangement, a quiet reading corner, an outdoor spa with an outdoor shower? All these arrangements require more lighting.
Do you also dream of ending the day on the terrace in the glow of a soft, warm, embracing light? Then make sure to create atmosphere on and around the terrace with small and large light points placed in several spots, just like inside the living room. The possibilities are many. Illuminate with outdoor wall lamps (for example, SOHO or RØRHAT), floor lamps (for example, RØRHAT or ORBIT), and wall spots (for example, MIRAGE or CURVE). But don't choose too many, so you end up sitting in a sea of light. Many forget that there is also light coming from inside, as there are usually lamps lit in the house.

It's not just on and around the house where you should place outdoor lamps. Consider the garden in your lighting plan and place several lamps around the garden and in flower beds. Lighting should be chosen based on where you want light when you are outside, but also how you want to perceive the outdoor space from inside the house. If you want to illuminate the garden with general light, you can choose broad, diffused lighting. If you want a more sculptural, dramatic effect, playing light either up a tree or a facade, spotlights or uplights are a workable solution. Lamps mounted in the grass, flower beds, or on gravel/stones can serve as beautiful marker lights to divide and highlight the garden. It’s important to create depth and levels in the garden, for instance by illuminating a large tree at the back of the garden with a spotlight, using up-lights for general landscape lighting, and perhaps illuminating low-growing plants with floor lamps. Many make the mistake of over-lighting. Remember, light should primarily create atmosphere. However, it also provides security when you are inside the house and can see what is happening outside.
All our outdoor lamps come with LED lights. This benefits both your energy budget and the environment. In terms of costs, LED lights are incredibly energy-efficient and use far less electricity than traditional light sources. Although the initial investment may be higher, the long-term savings on energy bills and reduced replacement costs make LED lights an ideal choice for outdoor lighting.
When you use LED lights in your outdoor space and garden, you get lighting that can create a cozy atmosphere and a sense of security. One of the biggest advantages of LED lights is that they turn on instantly and provide full brightness without any warm-up time, offering immediate illumination. This means you get light the moment you need it.
