  1. Let Your Garden Shine with Great Lighting

  2. The finishing touch to a stunning outdoor living design is landscape lighting according to an article, Great Lighting Comes from Careful Design. Yes, with proper landscape lighting installation, the entire beauty and splendor of a landscape design will shine and stand out when the sun goes down. It’s important that your landscape design looks beautiful and attractive both from your windows and from the street, thus you have to consider the views of your landscaping from the inside and outside of your house when designing outdoor lighting.

  3. When creating an outdoor lighting plan, identify focal points to highlight the beauty of your landscape and consider how you are using the space more often. Nevertheless, designing a great lighting package isn’t just about choosing where to put lights and identifying its purpose, but also using the appropriate lighting techniques that can make the difference between a blinding glare and a beautiful showcase. Here are some lighting techniques/effects that you might want to include in your outdoor space.

  4. Pathway Lighting - splashing light to provide a safe, secure and visible walkway at night time. It creates a warm and romantic ambiance to your landscape design and construction. • Spread Lighting –illuminates and shows off your low lying plants and ground cover or showcase your perennial garden design. • Spot Lighting – basic lighting effect to highlight a focal point or your favorite garden spot such as water fountain or bird bath. • Silhouetting - A ray of light which is placed between a focal point and a wall to generate a shadowing effect in the foreground.

  5. Up lighting - light an object (e.g. Oak tree or statue) from the ground up. • Shadowing - Positioning a light to cast decorative shadows onto a wall or other surface. • Washing - a light is placed to the side of the chosen object and splashed over a distance of a wall, usually a smaller shrub or tree.

  6. Having a beautifully lit garden doesn’t need to break your electric bill budget. With LED lighting advancements you can achieve the same amazing view as traditional landscape lighting with only a fraction of the electrical cost. LED lighting has a higher upfront cost, but will pay for itself in a short span of time. Whether you’re entertaining on a warm summer evening or celebrating the holidays in cold season, a great landscape lighting design allows you to make the most of your outdoor living space.
