Artemide Aquacil | Acheo - The Perfect Outdoor Lighting Solution

Outdoor lighting is just as important as indoor illumination. Not only does it turn gardens and backyards into pretty places but there is also the matter of security. A poorly lit yard has a higher chance of attracting undesirable elements like thieves and burglars than a well-lit outdoor area. This is why lighting manufacturing companies lay heavy emphasis on outdoor lighting and try to come up with best system.

Of the many noted lighting manufacturers that exist, Artemide stands out for its decades-long reputation, ability to craft stylish and elegant fixtures and dedication to technology and detail. The Italian company has spent years honing its craft and has time and again roped in noted designers and architects to create stunningly beautiful lamps for the masses. True, their products are pricey but their quality cannot be refuted.

For an idea on just how far-reaching Artemide’s influence is, know that its products have adorned museums in Canada, Rome and the United States.


Artemide Aquacil


Artemide Aquacil is a stylish lamp distinguished from the rest by its mirror finish. It’s been made into a table lamp, ceiling lamp and a floor lamp. Designed by Rose Lovegrove the fixture combines direct and indirect lights which are mirrored by the finish. The lamp itself has a wavy design which is even more unique and reminds one of ripples on water.


The Aquacil, like many of Artemide’s products, is a low voltage lamp to help users save on their utility bills. While mostly used indoors, it can also be used for outdoor lighting to illuminate gardens and porches.

Artemide Acheo


The Artemide Acheo wall light is perfect for the outdoors with its discreet appearance that can seamlessly blend into the background if you so wish. However, if you want to show it off to your peers then it has the ability to stand out too with its horizontal, cylindrical and transparent shade. It’s an indirect halogen lighting system with the diffuser frame made out of die-cast aluminum. If you have a yard with high walls then the Acheo is perfect for lighting up your outdoor area.


The Aquacil and Acheo are only two of many lighting systems in Artemide’s arsenal. For a list of the products, visit the company website and other online stores that deal in lighting.

  2. Yeah, interesting range of lights. I contest as to whether they would match the visual aesthetic of many homes, however. They're quite alternative.
