Moonlight

German-made illuminated spheres: weatherproof polyethylene light objects for garden, pool and terrace, read for the US buyer.

The house

A lighting house built around one form.

Moonlight is a German maker of illuminated spheres, the glowing polyethylene globes that gave the house its name. The lights are designed and manufactured in Germany by Moonlight Technology AG, based in Schwörstadt in the south-west of the country near the Swiss border. The company has built its catalogue around a single recognisable object, the unbroken luminous sphere, refined across sizes, mounting systems and indoor and outdoor uses.

The range runs from small table-scale globes to large floor spheres, plus hemispheres and floating versions for water. For US buyers, the lights reach the market through authorised dealers and distribution partners, with options that vary by size, mounting and light source.

In focus

Full Sphere

Moonlight illuminated spheres

The full sphere is the form the whole house is built on. Each globe is moulded in high-quality, impact-resistant polyethylene with an unbroken surface that scatters light evenly, so the object reads as a single soft source rather than a lamp with a visible bulb. The material is waterproof and UV-resistant and is rated for outdoor use across a wide temperature band, from roughly minus 40 to plus 80 degrees Celsius.

Spheres are offered in a range of diameters and pair with different bases and mounting systems, from a simple cable to ground anchors and screw-on sockets. The same body works on a lawn, a terrace or the surface of water, which is why the maker photographs it in fields, gardens, by pools and against architecture rather than on a studio sweep.
