You should never lose the beauty of your landscape when the sun goes down. As we approach winter and the days grow shorter, landscape lighting becomes even more important to illuminate the key features of your home and garden all night long. Hoot Landscape & Design has brought safety, security, and beauty to countless landscapes through the creative use of LED landscape lighting. When approaching a landscape design with lighting in mind, there are always a number of key areas to focus on:
-Look Inviting
Guide your guests to your doorway by using pathway lighting. Professional landscape lighting will invite guests towards your home and through the landscape without missing a step. Pathways can be lit using LED lighting fixtures on the ground-level or though down lighting in trees or off of structures. One key thing to remember with down lighting pathways is that you will want to illuminate the walkway without “light bombing” guests as they step. This will highlight each step through your property creating an unforseen hazard.
-Highlight the Features of Your Property
Whether it is a beautiful Oak tree, a magnificent pondless waterfall, or lush and colorful planter, landscape lighting is the best way to ensure that the key accents of your landscape are showcased properly. The beautiful branches and canopies of your valued trees will create new drama at night. The brilliant colors of your flowers and plants will shine through the darkness. Professional landscape lighting will make these items stand out even more in the contrasting darkness of the evening hours.
-Safety and Security
Professional landscape lighting is not just for aesthetics, it is a great deterrent to intruders. A well-lit home appears well-protected and will be less inviting to unwanted guests than a pitch-black landscape and property.
-Energy Efficiency
As a “green” company, it is always important to us to utilize the most energy-efficient LED lighting possible. The LED lighting fixtures not only save our clients on energy use but also on the tedious and annoying costs of constantly replacing bulbs. Professional LED Lighting is the key to saving money year after year on energy and maintenance costs while also enhancing the beauty of your landscape season after season.
These are the key areas to be concerned with when deciding on your options for landscape lighting. What is also crucial to the success of your lighting is to trust the project to a professional landscape lighting installation company.
