Roger Pradier Aubanne Outdoor Post Light

Roger Pradier Aubanne Outdoor Post Light, designed by Stéphane Joyeux, is a contemporary bollard-style post light that reads as a refined architectural detail for paths, gardens and driveways. The design pairs a tall, slender post with a wide disc shade to produce a distinctive, modern profile.

The Aubanne's cantilevered arm offsets the light head from the post so illumination is directed downwards to minimise glare and maximise ground coverage. The head shows a shallow conical shade with a white interior; the fitting is offered in multiple variants across the range and includes frosted or clear glass diffuser choices alongside an opal polycarbonate reflector.

Construction cues are straightforward and robust: a slim cylindrical post sits on a flat circular base plate for surface fixing, while the shade and diffuser form a protected light source. The visible high-contrast black and white treatment gives the fitting a minimalist, geometric appearance suited to contemporary exteriors.

Light is delivered downwards for safe, usable pathway illumination; a frosted diffuser gives a softer, more diffuse glow while a clear option presents a cleaner, more graphic light source. The cantilevered shade helps control glare and directs illumination where it is needed most.

The product carries an IP44 rating for protected outdoor use and comes with a 5-year technical warranty and a 25-year anti-corrosion guarantee, underlining its suitability for exposed exterior locations. The circular base plate is designed for secure bolting to solid surfaces such as concrete, decking or stone paving.

At Lighting Design Online we present the Aubanne as a design-led choice for considered exterior lighting. Its clear form language and practical weather protection make it straightforward to specify, while our technical guidance can help integrate the fitting into a layered outdoor lighting scheme with confidence and clarity.
