Landscape Forms

Landscape Forms, North America’s leading designer and manufacturer of high-design lighting, site furniture, structure, and accessories, proudly unveils Moment, a scalable and adaptable lighting line designed in collaboration with the celebrated design team at Yonoh Creative Studios, based in Valencia, Spain.

“This was our first outdoor lighting project and we were thrilled to partner with the experienced designers and engineers at Landscape Forms to bring it to life,” says Alex Selma, Yonoh founder and one of the lead designers on the project. “Our goal at the outset was to create an impressively modern product that would be at home in almost any setting, and I think we achieved that.”

Rooted in the elemental interplay of straight lines, perfect circles, and conical shapes, the minimalist profile of Moment finds expression in sculptural luminaires that are both artful and practical, presenting a streamlined and unadorned silhouette that effortlessly complements any public-space environment.

“Moment is a testament to the power of restraint in design,” says Landscape Forms President of Lighting Jordan Agustin. “Its reliance on basic geometries and simple forms helps to bring a sense of order and streamlined symmetry to outdoor settings, whether illuminating a main street, a bustling plaza, or lighting a path through a wooded park.”

Moment’s versatility is also expressed in the expansive range of available options. The line’s modern aesthetic carries through an array of pole height and mounting configurations, including single, paired, or staggered multiples for area and accent lighting, as well as catenary and wall-mounted designs. Beneath the sleek exterior, Moment incorporates the perfect balance of performance and visual experience options, including a wide selection of roadway and accent distribution types, up to 10,000lm delivered, a deep-set light engine, and an optional hexcell louvre that ensure precise illumination with minimal glare.

“Landscape Forms is always looking for partners that can bring a diverse perspective to our portfolio, and offer a fresh and vibrant design approach,” says Landscape Forms Director of Design Ryan Heiser. “Yonoh’s understanding of silhouette, proportion and their consideration of elegant details was a perfect fit for what we wanted to achieve.”

In adhering to a minimalist mindset, special care was taken in removing unnecessary ornament from the design. Fasteners and hardware were tightly integrated and contained in the housing, bringing a remarkable clarity and cohesiveness to every aspect of the design. “We pride ourselves on listening to the lighting community and landscape designers,” adds Ryan. “This focus on the balance of aesthetic simplicity and performance was high on the list.”

“The Moment line is designed to complement—not compete with—the environments they illuminate,” Jordan concludes. “The design elevates the spaces they occupy, and in the process creates something better, vibrant spaces made to be lived in, experienced, and enjoyed.”

Landscape Forms, North America’s leading designer and manufacturer of high-design site furniture, structure, LED lighting and accessories, introduces the Outline family of column lights, path lights and bollards.

A modern reinterpretation of the familiar column luminaire, Outline is designed to bring greater visual interest, performance and more versatility to urban environments. Serving as performance lights, wayfinding elements or architectural details, Outline luminaires communicate refinement and elegance with the robustness required for high-profile public space.

"Outline leans in to one of the many things that makes Landscape Forms unique, which is our craft-based approach to manufacturing,” says Landscape Forms President of Lighting, Jordan Agustin. "There are other solutions that can provide quality illumination, but Outline's performance in combination with its exceptional design and manufacturing—its elegant curves, its seamless transitions between surfaces—is Landscape Forms on full display.”

Grouped into sculptural clusters of different heights, defining space throughout parks and public plazas, or lighting the way along pedestrian paths, Outline makes a modern and approachable statement in a robust, meticulously crafted, and public space-ready form factor. "Outline has notes of the original, familiar light column, but it brings our own modern twist,” describes Landscape Forms Director of Design, Ryan Heiser. “It’s clean, minimalist and rather inconspicuous from afar, but when you take notice and appreciate the craft in the details, it becomes really beautiful."

The family includes 12’ and 10' column lights, a 4’ path light and a 4’ unlit bollard. Each features three sculptural arms that emerge seamlessly from the element’s base. When lit, light is cast downward along the arms to create an alluring ground pattern and poetic interplay between illumination, shadow, object and surroundings. In the pedestrian-scale column lights, high angle glare is eliminated (G-0), enhancing the safety and visual experience of urban outdoor space. In the path light, directed optic design provides superior visibility and confidently extends the usability of outdoor space. Each Outline element Outline features a seamless transition between luminaire and ground plane, firmly anchored with no base cover or part lines.

"Outline is true to the Landscape Forms story,” continues Jordan Agustin. “It represents our focus on activating outdoor space within the context of urban settings, ensuring settings like plazas, parklets and downtown corridors—these places of respite in our busy lives—can be well lit in a human-focused, pedestrian-centric way."

Northport was designed in collaboration with Daniel Lobitz and Thomas Day of RAMSA | Robert A.M. Stern Architects, an urban architectural visionary whose influence is all over this city’s iconic skyline. This collection of innovative lighting solutions spans a wide range of scales, settings and design idioms. Northport to be released this fall.
