San Nicola Arcella has been transformed by the architectural and lighting requalification project by Italian architect Giampiero Lepreti. The Belvedere, overlooking the sea, has become the signature of the whole design. Our heritage collections Tabit and Maya mounting Light 804 lantern have been chosen to light the terrace and the old city centre, substituting the sodium-vapour and mercury-vapour lamps lanterns.
To light the park and the streets surrounding the centre our collections Heka with Light 21 and Maia with Light Nova have been preferred.

Neri Kiosks Take Center Stage at National Landing’s New Water Park
Elegant and functional, the custom cast-iron kiosks by Neri are the architectural highlight of the newly opened Water Park in National Landing, Arlington (Washington, D.C. area). Ten custom structures welcome visitors into a refined, inviting atmosphere. Designed to blend seamlessly into the urban landscape, these kiosks serve as key reference points in the public space, turning everyday moments into opportunities for interaction, exchange, and community.
Pictor: adaptability and performance in three urban contexts
Pictor, our lighting system that perfectly adapts to every context, is the star of three installations. In Riccione, it enhances the small harbor, playing with two different heights between Viale Bellini and the walkway alongside the water. In San Salvo, it brightens the Ciclovia Adriatica, the award-winning bike path along the coast. In Logroño, Spain, it both decorates and illuminates a new residential center, adding visual rhythm and atmosphere to the urban landscape. A lighting system designed to blend elegantly: essential design, top performance, total adaptability.
Preserving History: The New Light of Sulmona
Sulmona, Italy
In Sulmona, during the historic Good Friday procession, the hand-carried lanterns held by the young members of the Confraternity of the Holy Trinity have been a recognizable symbol for centuries. But behind their elegance lay a concrete issue: the risk posed by fire and glass over more than four hours of continuous use. In 2022, the Confraternity turned to Neri to find a solution that was safe — yet invisible. The result? An LED system powered by a single battery for each lantern, ensuring full autonomy and safety without altering the original appearance. The warm glow of candlelight was precisely recreated thanks to a custom LED filter; the spheres were reproduced in polyethylene using 3D printing, and the golden leaves were carefully restored to their original brilliance.
