Outdoor Landscape Lighting Installation: What Gets Lit and Why|Planning a Landscape Lighting Installation

Start with what you want to see

Where roofline lighting works on the building, landscape lighting takes care of the yard: the walk, the beds, the trees, the steps. Done well, you notice the yard and not the fixtures. Done badly, you get a line of glowing dots along the path and not much else.

What usually gets lit

Path lighting comes first for most properties, since walking to the door in the dark is the daily problem. Uplighting on a good tree changes the whole front of a property after dark. Beds, stairs, walls and the driveway round it out, and some of that is safety more than style.

Landscape, patio and security lighting are related jobs

The request almost never stays in one lane. Patio lighting makes the back of the house usable after dinner. Security lighting handles the parts of the property nobody can see from the street. Accent lighting is the finish work.

What to avoid

More light does not mean better. A yard lit evenly at every point looks flat, and flat is the one thing you were trying to avoid. Badly aimed fixtures put light in your guests' eyes rather than onto the surface. The third is ignoring how the yard will look in five years, since the bed in front of a fixture fills in.

The commercial side

On commercial property the brief changes. A restaurant patio needs light people want to sit under. A parking area is a safety question first. A neighborhood entrance sets the tone for everything behind it, which https://evercrestlighting.com/ is why entrances get lit carefully.

How they work as one design

Roofline lighting handles the building. Landscape lighting handles everything else. Together they finish the picture. Roofline light outlines the building, and landscape light gives the ground in front of it depth.Doing them in one plan beats adding one to the other later. If the budget has to be split, a good designer will tell you which half to do first, and the answer is not always the house.Unlike a roofline system, yard lighting moves. Fixtures get bumped by mowers, plantings grow up in front of them, and the aim wanders. Once a year it is worth walking the yard and correcting the aim, which takes very little time and makes an obvious difference.

What is permanent outdoor lighting?

Permanent outdoor lighting is a fixed LED system installed along a building's roofline, eaves and architectural lines and left in place all year. The LEDs sit in a track that is color matched to the trim, and the system is controlled from a smartphone app. It replaces the seasonal strands that go up and come down each year.

The track is color matched to the trim or fascia and mounted tight along the edge of the roofline, so it is designed to stay discreet in daylight and read as part of the house rather than as decoration.
