Bluewaters is a vibrant lifestyle destination featuring residential, retail, hospitality, and entertainment options. Home to Ain Dubai, the world’s largest observation wheel, it is also a shopper’s paradise, housing retail and dining concepts. Bluewaters’ bridge and several transport systems also make the urban island easy to access.
To illuminate the streets of Bluewaters, lighting design practice Neolight Global wanted a contemporary steel lamp post with a twist: timber cladding. We were more than happy to pick up the challenge.
The lamp post design complements perfectly the surrounding architecture and landscape design, making the whole development very sleek and stylish.

Pictor Urban Furniture Enhances Forte dei Marmi’s Cityscape
Essential design, bold character, flexible spirit: the Pictor urban furniture collection, developed in collaboration with the architecture studio Lombardini22, transforms public space into a dynamic and contemporary experience. Benches, planters, litter bins, bike racks, and bollards make up a modular collection designed to interact with any urban context. Each element, whether used individually or in combination, integrates seamlessly into the cityscape, offering endless configurations and visual connections. In Forte dei Marmi, the Pictor collection has taken shape along the town’s shopping streets: planters of various sizes, benches with and without backrests, litter bins, and other elements have created small green rest areas—welcoming and functional.
Neri Kiosks Take Center Stage at National Landing’s New Water Park
Elegant and functional, the custom cast-iron kiosks by Neri are the architectural highlight of the newly opened Water Park in National Landing, Arlington (Washington, D.C. area). Ten custom structures welcome visitors into a refined, inviting atmosphere. Designed to blend seamlessly into the urban landscape, these kiosks serve as key reference points in the public space, turning everyday moments into opportunities for interaction, exchange, and community.
Pictor: adaptability and performance in three urban contexts
Pictor, our lighting system that perfectly adapts to every context, is the star of three installations. In Riccione, it enhances the small harbor, playing with two different heights between Viale Bellini and the walkway alongside the water. In San Salvo, it brightens the Ciclovia Adriatica, the award-winning bike path along the coast. In Logroño, Spain, it both decorates and illuminates a new residential center, adding visual rhythm and atmosphere to the urban landscape. A lighting system designed to blend elegantly: essential design, top performance, total adaptability.
