Faro Grada 250 Wall Lamp - Rust

A larger downlight for steps, walls and driveways in rust

The Grada 250 is a compact outdoor wall light with a clean, low profile rectangular form. Rather than casting light outwards, it throws a soft beam downwards from a recessed lower opening, grazing the surface below to pick out steps, thresholds and textured walls. It is a quiet, architectural fitting designed to guide the eye and light the way without glare.

The Rust Finish

This version wears a warm rust finish, a muted terracotta brown that reads as natural and earthy against brick, render, stone and timber. It is a softer, more characterful alternative to the dark grey in the same range, and it settles comfortably into planted gardens and rustic or Mediterranean style exteriors. The 250 is the smaller of the two Grada sizes, so it suits close range, human scale positions where a larger fitting would feel heavy.

How it works

Grada uses an integrated LED, rated at 6W with a warm 3000K colour temperature for an inviting, golden quality of light. The driver is included and the LED is built in rather than a replaceable bulb, so there is nothing to buy separately to get it working. The body is made from aluminium with a glass diffuser, and it is designed to be wall mounted with the light directed downward. As a mains powered fitting, Moonlight Design recommends installation by a registered NICEIC electrician.

Where it works best

This is an exterior fitting made for gardens, terraces, patios and outdoor passageways. Its downward beam makes it especially well suited to lighting steps, low walls, porches, entrances and the edges of paths and driveways, where it doubles as a discreet step light. Mounted in a run along a wall or staircase, several units create a rhythmic, understated line of light after dark.

Questions People Ask

How does the Grada 250 differ from the smaller Grada 157?
The Faro Grada 250 is the larger of the two sizes, measuring 250mm wide against the 157mm width of the smaller version, and it uses a 6W LED rather than 3W, giving a brighter 208 lumen output suited to wider walls and longer flights of steps.

What does the IP54 rating mean in practice for the Grada 250?
IP54 means the Faro Grada 250 is protected against dust and against water splashing from any direction, so it is built to handle rain and normal weather on an open exterior wall.

Is 208 lumens bright enough to light a driveway?
The 208 lumen output of the Faro Grada 250 is directed downward as a wash rather than a spotlight, so it is well suited to marking the edge of a driveway or a run of steps, though for lighting a whole drive evenly you would typically space several fittings along its length rather than rely on one.

Can the bulb be changed if it fails?
No, the Faro Grada 250 has an integrated LED with the driver built in, so there is no separate bulb to replace. The fitting is designed as a sealed, long life light source.
