U.S. Outdoor Lighting Introduces IKON™ Series and Amadeus™ Luminaire, Expanding Design-Driven, High-Performance Portfolio

U.S. Outdoor Lighting, a leading manufacturer of specification-grade outdoor lighting solutions, today announced the launch of two new luminaires—IKON™ Series from its U.S. Architectural Lighting brand and Amadeus™ from Sun Valley Lighting—further strengthening the company’s commitment to design innovation, optical performance, and American manufacturing.

IKON™ Series — A Contemporary Reimagining of Knob-and-Shade Design

The IKON™ Series introduces a clean, contemporary interpretation of the classic knob-and-shade luminaire. Designed with a deconstructed aesthetic, IKON emphasizes simplicity, proportion, and visual clarity—making it ideally suited for modern site lighting applications where human scale and architectural integration are essential.

Offered in two initial models—IK3 and IK5—the IKON Series provides flexibility across a wide range of outdoor environments:

  • IK3: 3 to 26 watts

  • IK5: 5 to 103 watts

  • Angled and domed shade options in both sizes

  • Mounting versatility including pole, pendant, wall, and bollard configurations

  • Equipped with PLED™ optical system with 10 unique beam distributions for precise, low-glare illumination

  • BABA compliant, supporting federally funded projects

The IK3 and IK5 represent the foundation of the IKON platform, with larger-scale luminaires and coordinated arm systems planned for future release—enabling a cohesive design language across entire sites.

Amadeus™ — A Modern Evolution of a Classic Form

Expanding the Sun Valley Lighting portfolio, the Amadeus™ luminaire is a refined, modern interpretation of the company’s well-known Mozart post-top fixture. Amadeus retains the timeless character of traditional design while introducing cleaner lines and updated proportions for contemporary applications.

Key features include:

  • Integration of industry-leading PLED™ optical system for superior performance and visual comfort

  • Robust, specification-grade, cast construction consistent with Sun Valley’s legacy of durability

  • Manufactured in the company’s Palmdale, California foundry

  • BABA compliant, meeting domestic sourcing requirements

Continuing a Legacy of Innovation

“These new products reflect our continued focus on delivering lighting solutions that balance design excellence, optical performance, and manufacturability,” said Paul Kennedy, VP of Product and Markets at U.S. Outdoor Lighting. “With IKON, we’re introducing a scalable modern platform for site lighting, while Amadeus demonstrates how we can thoughtfully evolve traditional forms for today’s environments.”

Both IKON™ Series and Amadeus™ are part of U.S. Outdoor Lighting’s broader mission to provide complete, design-driven outdoor lighting solutions across commercial, campus, municipal, and public space applications.
