Hello forum,
does anyone have a good tip for exterior up & down lighting for a house wall?
It is important that the light reaches about 4m (13 feet) upwards. Downwards, 2m (6.5 feet) is sufficient. An adjustable beam angle would also be nice.
The fixture should be rectangular and in anthracite or graphite gray.

I have looked at some options online, but the light intensity and beam reach seem to be lacking.

There aren’t only models with fixed LEDs, so choose one with, for example, GU10 sockets. Then you can select the light bulbs of your choice. There are definitely some with a very narrow beam angle (maybe around 10°) and high brightness, which should reach the desired four meters.

At this point, I find it interesting that the light shining upwards seems to be more important than the light shining downwards. Wouldn't the opposite be more decisive? After all, I want light for walking or staying in a space, not for looking at the facade. Or am I misunderstanding something?

Anyone who has received such a great plaster facade that still looks good even in raking light is welcome to show it off :p

We don’t even know what kind of facade this is. :p

Now seriously. No matter how great or bad a facade is, why should I illuminate it?
Addendum: unless it is a hotel, museum, or something similar.
