This Government Building Lighting Project in Huizhou, China was completed in 2024. The project used 18W LED flood lights with a 45° beam angle for outdoor architectural facade lighting.
The lighting solution was designed to provide clear and balanced illumination across the building exterior while highlighting the architectural structure and improving its nighttime appearance.
For government and public buildings, facade lighting needs to provide a professional architectural appearance while maintaining controlled light distribution. The combination of 18W LED flood lights and a 45° beam angle provided a directional lighting solution for the required facade areas.
The project is located in Huizhou, Guangdong, China, and was completed in 2024.
The building required an outdoor architectural lighting system to enhance the visibility of its facade after dark. The lighting needed to work with the existing building structure and provide consistent illumination across the selected exterior areas.
For this project, 18W LED flood lights were selected as the primary lighting fixtures, with a 45° beam angle used for facade illumination.
Government building facade lighting requires careful planning of fixture position, lighting direction and beam distribution.
The main project considerations included:
Providing uniform facade illumination
Highlighting architectural building elements
Selecting suitable LED flood light power
Choosing an appropriate beam angle
Controlling light distribution
Reducing unnecessary light spill
Maintaining a clean nighttime appearance
Integrating the lighting fixtures with the building facade
The lighting design needed to balance facade coverage with controlled illumination.
For this government building project, 18W LED flood lights with a 45° beam angle were used for architectural facade lighting.
The fixtures were positioned according to the building structure and aimed toward the required facade surfaces.
The 45° beam angle provided a relatively broad distribution compared with narrow architectural beams, making it suitable for covering larger facade areas from an appropriate installation distance.
The lighting solution included:
18W LED flood lights
45° beam angle
Directional facade illumination
Government building exterior lighting
Architectural lighting
Controlled wall washing
The final fixture positioning and aiming were based on the required illuminated areas and the building's architectural structure.
Beam angle is an important factor when selecting LED flood lights for architectural facade applications.
A 45° beam angle provides broader light distribution than narrow beams such as 8°, 15° or 30°. It can therefore be considered when a larger facade area needs to be illuminated from a suitable installation position.
For government buildings, a 45° beam angle can be useful for:
Large facade surfaces
Building walls
Entrance areas
Architectural structures
Medium-distance facade illumination
The correct beam angle should always be selected according to the actual distance between the fixture and the facade, building height, facade width and desired lighting effect.
The 18W LED flood lights provided directional illumination across the selected areas of the government building facade.
The 45° beam angle helped distribute the light across a broader area and supported a balanced architectural lighting effect.
The lighting effect focused on:
Clear facade illumination
Balanced light distribution
Visible architectural details
Improved nighttime building appearance
Controlled outdoor lighting
The lighting system was designed to enhance the architectural structure without relying on excessive fixture power.
Correct installation and aiming are essential for government building facade lighting.
The LED flood lights were installed at suitable positions and directed toward the target facade surfaces. Fixture positioning was considered together with the building structure and required lighting coverage.
Before installing LED flood lights for a public or government building, contractors should consider:
Building height
Facade dimensions
Fixture-to-facade distance
Beam angle
Mounting height
Fixture aiming angle
Required illuminated area
Cable routing
Outdoor environmental conditions
A properly planned installation can help improve lighting uniformity and reduce unnecessary light spill.
LED flood lights provide flexible options for architectural facade lighting because different power levels and beam angles can be selected according to the project requirements.
For government buildings, the appropriate LED flood light specification depends on the building size, facade material, installation distance and desired lighting effect.
Important selection factors include:
LED flood light wattage
Light output
Beam angle
Installation distance
Mounting position
Color temperature
IP protection
Lighting direction
For this Huizhou project, 18W LED flood lights with a 45° beam angle were selected for the required facade lighting application.
The Huizhou Government Building Lighting Project was completed in 2024.
The project used 18W LED flood lights with a 45° beam angle to provide architectural illumination for the building facade.
The lighting solution created a clear and balanced nighttime appearance while highlighting the architectural structure of the government building.

The project used 18W LED flood lights with a 45° beam angle for architectural facade lighting.
The project was completed in Huizhou, Guangdong, China, in 2024.
A 45° beam angle provides broader light distribution and can be suitable for illuminating larger facade surfaces from an appropriate installation distance.
The required power depends on the facade size, installation distance, mounting position and required light output. For this project, 18W LED flood lights were used for the required facade lighting application.
Consider the building height, facade dimensions, installation distance, required light output, beam angle, color temperature, IP protection and desired architectural lighting effect.
There is no single beam angle for every building. Narrow beams can provide focused architectural lighting, while wider beams such as 45° can provide broader facade coverage. The correct choice depends on the building and installation conditions.
Yes. LED flood lights can be used for exterior architectural lighting of government buildings, public buildings, commercial buildings and other structures when the fixture specifications are appropriate for the project conditions.
