Lighting a pergola, a textured wall, or a long passageway sounds straightforward — until you realise that a standard ground spotlight simply throws light in one fixed direction and one fixed pattern. The wrong beam choice means flat, uninspiring results or, worse, glare where you least want it.
For these situations, what really matters is control over beam shape, not just beam angle. An asymmetric optic — a lens engineered to produce two distinct light projections depending on orientation — gives you that control. Rotate the fitting 90 degrees and you move between a wide, sweeping fan ideal for broad walls or pergola bays, and a tight, tall stripe suited to narrow architectural features or tall columns.
The In-Lite BIG FLUX ASYMMETRIC is built around exactly this principle. Part of In-Lite's FLUX family of outdoor ground lights — designed and engineered in the Netherlands — it uses an asymmetrical lens to produce a 65-degree wide fan with a 6-metre reach in one orientation, and an 18-degree narrow stripe reaching 6 metres high when rotated 90 degrees. This makes it particularly well suited to illuminating pergola beams, wide alcoves, and architectural passageways where a single fixed beam would fall short. It is also surmountable, meaning it can be safely installed flush with a driveable or walkable surface.
The luminaire is supplied as a complete unit comprising the BIG FLUX ASYMMETRIC and a RING 68 bezel. The ring is made from high-quality anodised aluminium and is available in Black, Stainless Steel, and Pearl Grey — three finishes that suit both contemporary and traditional outdoor schemes. The compact, low-profile circular form remains discreet by day and architectural by night.
Installation flexibility is a genuine strength here. BIG FLUX ASYMMETRIC can be paired with the optional SPIKE ground stake accessory for placement in loose substrates such as earth, gravel, or grass, making it ideal for garden beds or lawn edges. It is also compatible with the BOX-1 accessory for recessed installation into hard surfaces. The BIG FLUX ASYMMETRIC sits within a broader FLUX family that includes FLUX, BIG FLUX, BIG FLUX NARROW, and SMART FLUX TONE — allowing a coordinated lighting scheme across different zones and beam requirements.
