Transform the outdoors with lighting
If you’re looking to transform your home’s curb appeal and make the most of your outdoor spaces after dark, landscape lighting is the perfect place to start.
Whether it’s highlighting architectural features, spotlighting a favorite tree, or simply extending the usability of your yard into the evening, a thoughtfully designed lighting system can completely transform your home’s exterior.
So, how do you create a lighting design that’s both beautiful and functional? Here’s how to get started:
1. Highlight What Makes Your Home Unique
Every home has something special—whether it’s mature trees, a unique architectural feature, or a beloved garden sculpture. These standout elements should form the foundation of your lighting design.
By thoughtfully illuminating these details, you can create a cohesive, eye-catching look that reflects your home’s personality and charm.
2. Light Up Pathways and Driveways for Safety and Style
Pathway and driveway lighting not only enhance visual appeal but also improve safety. Guiding guests with well-lit walkways helps prevent trips and falls, while also creating a warm, inviting entrance.
Choose fixtures that complement your home’s style and landscape to ensure everything feels harmonious and intentional.
3. Use Layered Lighting for a Richer, More Dynamic Look
Just like layering in interior design or artwork, using multiple lighting techniques adds depth and dimension to your outdoor space.
Mix up lighting, downlighting, and ambient lighting to create contrast and visual interest. This layered approach gives you flexibility, allowing you to highlight key areas without overwhelming your yard with brightness.
4. Invest in Durable, High-Quality Fixtures
Outdoor lighting has to endure the elements—from harsh sun, heavy rain to occasional freezing weather. Choosing durable, weather-resistant fixtures ensures your investment stands the test of time.
Looking for added convenience? Smart lighting controls let you manage everything from your phone—adjust brightness, set schedules, or turn lights on and off remotely.
5. Set the Mood with Patio and Garden Lighting
Want to enjoy your patio or garden long after the sun goes down? Cozy, ambient lighting is the key.
Bistro lights add a magical touch and are perfect for entertaining. Bollard lights nestled in your garden beds softly illuminate your landscaping and create a relaxed, welcoming vibe.
