A stylised pine tree
Tall is a suitable name for Jan Forsmark’s outdoor bollard light for ateljé Lyktan. In Swedish, ‘Tall’ is the name for the majestic Scots Pine tree. The name of the lamp alludes to the enchanted pine forests of northern Sweden, where it was first installed as part of the lighting for Treehotel. The name works equally well in English for this stately bollard light.
Material & design
Frame in weatherproof Corten steel with no surface treatment. Protective glass in scrape-proof and UV-protected PC. Tall has a cruciform base, crowned by three LED light cells that are, in turn, deflected downwards by a cuboid top.
Good optical guiding
One large LED cell is located under the top at the front of the lamp, while two smaller ones sit at the back. This means that Tall disperses its light in 360 degrees, but shines somewhat stronger in one direction. In this way, Tall can be orientated to lead the eye along a route, while illuminating its general surroundings at the same time.
Installation
For fixing to 108 foundation or in-situ casting with 4 bolts (M12).
