Architectural Lighting

Facade Lighting That Transforms Buildings

Facade lighting is the art and science of illuminating a building's exterior to enhance its architectural character, improve nighttime visibility, and create a powerful visual identity. From subtle warm-white accents to dynamic color-changing spectacles, the right facade lighting strategy can redefine how a building is perceived after dark.

In Saudi Arabia's rapidly evolving skyline, facade lighting plays a critical role in Vision 2030 urban development — transforming hotels, commercial towers, government buildings, and cultural landmarks into iconic nighttime landmarks that attract tourism and elevate brand prestige.

At SolarLeder, we design, supply, and install facade lighting systems that combine energy-efficient LED technology with intelligent control systems — engineered to withstand Saudi Arabia's extreme heat, sand, and humidity while delivering stunning visual results year-round.

Types of Facade Lights

Each type serves a distinct architectural purpose — from highlighting texture to creating dynamic visual experiences. We help you select the right solution for every zone of your facade.

Wall Graze Lights

Mounted close to the wall surface to wash light upward, highlighting the texture and depth of stone, brick, or concrete facades. Ideal for creating dramatic shadow effects on textured surfaces.

Key Features

  • Close-mounted for dramatic texture highlighting
  • Narrow beam angles (10°–30°)
  • Perfect for stone, brick, and concrete surfaces
  • Creates striking shadow and depth effects

Our Process

How We Plan & Install

From initial consultation to final commissioning, our six-step process ensures every facade lighting project is delivered on time, on budget, and exceeding expectations.

01

Site Survey & Analysis

Our engineering team conducts a thorough on-site assessment of the building facade — measuring dimensions, identifying surface materials, noting architectural features, and evaluating electrical infrastructure and access points.

Site Survey & Analysis
02

Lighting Design & 3D Visualization

Using DIALux and Relux simulation software, we create photorealistic 3D renderings showing exactly how the facade will look at night. Clients approve the design before any procurement begins.

03

Fixture Selection & Procurement

Based on the approved design, we source the optimal fixtures — matching beam angles, color temperature, IP ratings, and control protocols to the specific requirements of each facade zone.

Fixture Selection & Procurement
04

Structural Mounting & Electrical

Our certified installers handle all structural work — custom bracket fabrication, facade penetration sealing, cable routing, and junction box installation — all meeting Saudi Building Code requirements.

05

Programming and Calibration

Once installed, we calibrate every fixture for optimal color matching, brightness uniformity, and beam alignment. Control systems are programmed with pre-set scenes, schedules, and remote access capabilities.
