CATIRPEL is a flexible modular outdoor system designed for landscape and architectural applications that require great installation flexibility and accurate light control.
Designed to enhance nature, CATIRPEL is ideal for irregular curved or undulating surfaces. It can be easily be integrated into any environment and provides individual control of each luminaire module. The ball joint system allows for each luminaire module to be freely aimed and secured to a precise position with a locking screw.
CATIRPEL is a versatile and flexible lighting system for outdoor environments. It wraps sinuously around every surface, naturally adapting to irregular surfaces. CATIRPEL is the ideal solution to light architecture and landscapes where the support surface is curved, non-planar or uneven.
“The CATIRPEL morphs into the form of a caterpillar in a tree. Our fixtures weave into the surroundings, casting an enchanting spell of versatility.” Hervé Descottes, L’Observatoire International
It adapts naturally to curved surfaces.
This modular system is available in single, triple, or quintet module configurations. Each module is available as OUT or IN/OUT cable configurations, equipped with IP68 Plug’n’Play connectors for easy installation in exterior or interior applications.
Maximum Adjustability.
The spherical joint that connect each light module make it possible to curve multiple modules to obtain circular shapes to perfectly follow the features and peculiarities of the surface they are installed on.
With flexibility in the spherical joints, there are infinite possibilities for installation. Curving around branches, trunks, cylindrical structures and architectural details with ease. CATIRPEL is the ideal solution for difficult applications.
CATIRPEL is the result of the collaboration and innovation of Targetti and lighting design studio L'Observatoire International.
“Illuminating nature’s harmony; creating an organic light fixture that blend seamlessly with in the world. To have the light source be unknown and shine from within the object itself. Allowing for the light and object to be fused as one. The CATIRPEL morphs into the form of a caterpillar in a tree, our fixtures weave into the surroundings, casting an enchanting spell of versatility.” – Hervé Descottes
