Located at number 84 on Passeig de Gràcia, one of Barcelona’s most emblematic and vibrant avenues, the Royal Passeig de Gràcia Hotel stands in the very heart of the city.

The hotel’s entrance area becomes a true welcoming element thanks to the integration of ROVASI’s WATERTIGHT SQ luminaires. These square recessed fittings, combining high performance with a clean design, provide uniform illumination to the entrance canopy and help create, from the very first moment, a pleasant and balanced atmosphere in harmony with the character of the space. The composition is completed with DOT IP67 recessed downilights, which add a subtle rhythm to the canopy lighting and reinforce the overall architectural order, while maintaining the same refined stainless steel finishing detail.

The WATERTIGHT SQ range stands out for its robustness and adaptability, featuring IP65 protection to ensure reliable operation in environments exposed to variable conditions. At the same time, it delivers efficiency and precise light control suited to the demanding requirements of an urban hotel entrance. Its square design responds to architectural integration and geometric alignment criteria, enhancing the surrounding materials and supporting a coherent transition between the urban exterior and the interior of the establishment. In parallel, the DOT IP67 RECESSED DOWNLIGHTS introduce a measured cadence within the lighting layout, helping structure the perception of the canopy.

WATERTIGHT SQ body is made of aluminium, with a 316L stainless steel finishing frame. It is engineered to guarantee durability, thermal stability and precision in recessed installation. The IP65 rating ensures protection against dust and moisture, making it suitable for both demanding outdoor applications and interior spaces with limited maintenance access. DOT body and trim are made from 316L stainless steel ensuring a consistent material language across the installation.

Overall, they are a robust and versatile solutions with precise photometric distribution, designed to meet rigorous technical criteria in terms of performance, reliability, maintenance and architectural integration.

Set on the shores of a Finnish lake, where dense forests meet shimmering waters, COLUTEA 200 bollards were chosen to define the garden’s pathways with elegance and order. Their warm, even glow creates a welcoming atmosphere, blending seamlessly with the Nordic landscape.

The COLUTEA 200 are IP66 and IK10-rated bollards that provide 360° light emission with exceptional visual comfort. Their conical trims direct light gently towards the ground, minimizing glare and enhancing the pathway’s contours. The body is made from die-cast aluminium and the tube from extruded aluminium, coated with polyester powder and a C4 corrosion-resistant treatment to ensure long-lasting durability. For highly corrosive environments, an optional C5-M coating is available.

The diffuser can be specified in 5 mm extruded polycarbonate with UV-stabilised resins or 7 mm borosilicate glass, both with an opal finish for a soft, uniform light distribution. Standard tubular heights are available, and customised heights can also be supplied to meet specific project requirements.

Recommended for lighting pathways, promenades, squares, gardens, and open spaces, COLUTEA 200 bollards once again prove that technical lighting and natural harmony can beautifully coexist.

The bollards supplied in this project have a total height of 1115 mm, with a 250 mm-high luminous body and an 859 mm aluminium tube. The luminaires were supplied with DALI drivers, allowing precise light control. As for the light source, the PCB LED is positioned at the top of the body and provides a 3000 K warm white.

We are excited to present the updated ROVASI website—redesigned to better reflect the excellence of our lighting solutions while making technical information and resources more accessible.

These improvements make it easier for lighting professionals, architects, lighting designers, interior designers, specifiers, and end-clients to truly appreciate the quality of our luminaires and quickly access the documents they need—helping them make informed decisions. A website should not only showcase what we produce but also make the journey from interest to selection as smooth as possible.

Recent months have witnessed some landscape improvement works on the Walls of Salé in Morocco.

Renovation work on the walls of the old Medina of Salé forms part of a restoration and development programme for the space that began in 2019. The programme seeks to rejuvenate the city’s urban fabric and promote its historic and architectural heritage.Dating back to the 12th century, the walls once encircled and protected the Medina. They are approximately 5 kilometres long and their height varies from 8 to 10 metres. Made from stone and adobe, they are adorned with defensive towers and open at strategic points into historic gateways.

The team of lighting designers selected the VICTORIA and DISTRICT 100 luminaires from ROVASI to light this emblematic structure.

VICTORIA are buried uplights. Their robust extruded aluminium body and 10 mm glass provide IP67 ingress protection and IK10 impact resistance. The luminaires can be found along the entire length of the walls, highlighting and embellishing them at night.

DISTRICT 100 are linear recessed luminaires with length from 169mm to 2830mm. They are made from extruded aluminum, featuring a 4 mm polycarbonate protective diffuser. They offer IP66 ingress protection and IK10 impact resistance. They have been placed between the merlons to give these features added depth and relevance.

The Walls of Salé project is a testament to ROVASI’s expertise in providing precise and reliable outdoor lighting solutions. It highlights ROVASI’s commitment to innovation, durability, and excellence in projects that demand high-performance illumination in challenging environments.
