In outdoor lighting, performance and aesthetics are often seen as opposing forces—choosing one often means sacrificing the other. But 360 Solar by Landscape Forms proves otherwise. This innovative, off-grid solar lighting solution, developed in collaboration with Netherlands-based FlexSol Lighting Solutions, erases the boundary between form and function. It offers exceptional lighting performance in a sleek, modern profile—redefining what solar can be.

360 Solar is designed for versatility, adapting seamlessly to diverse environments like remote sites, urban parks, brownfield developments, and waterfronts. Its minimalist design conceals a powerful solar lighting system that requires no grid connection, making it ideal for areas where infrastructure is limited or sustainability is a priority.

The system’s most distinctive feature is its cylindrical, wrap-around solar array. Instead of traditional flat panels, 360 Solar’s cells are embedded in a tempered glass sleeve that encircles the pole. This vertical configuration not only maximizes solar capture from all directions throughout the day but also improves durability. The shape resists dust buildup and sheds snow and wind more efficiently than horizontal panels, making it more reliable in harsh conditions.

360 Solar’s intelligence is just as revolutionary as its form. At its core is an advanced edge-computing control system that autonomously adjusts energy use based on real-time environmental data. With self-learning capabilities, it continuously adapts to local conditions—no manual intervention or mobile app required. A built-in GPS and cloud-based dashboard enable remote monitoring and updates, ensuring peak performance without the need for regular on-site maintenance.

Engineered for resilience, 360 Solar operates across a wide temperature range—from -5°F to +130°F. Its debris-resistant, low-drag design withstands strong winds and extreme weather, offering dependable illumination year-round in nearly any climate.

Another standout feature is its modularity. The system allows for stacking multiple solar arrays on a single pole to boost energy generation. This flexibility supports a range of lighting demands, from low-wattage area lights to high-output luminaires and even accessories like security cameras or Wi-Fi nodes. Whether illuminating a pathway or powering smart city infrastructure, 360 Solar scales to meet the need.

The aesthetic integration with Landscape Forms’ luminaire families—including LEO, Torres, Ashbery, and Northport—ensures a cohesive, contemporary look across any project. It’s a solution that performs without drawing attention to the technology, offering cities and designers the freedom to prioritize beauty without compromising utility.

360 Solar isn’t just a product—it’s a response to the growing need for environmentally responsible infrastructure. By combining elegant design, smart technology, and off-grid capability, Landscape Forms and FlexSol have created a system that represents the future of lighting. It’s a compelling option for projects that demand sustainability, intelligence, and aesthetic integrity.
