Lighting techniques
When designing a garden, it’s important to consider different landscape lighting techniques to create a stunning atmosphere.
Uplighting
Position your lights upward so that the light shines up an exterior wall or up one of your landscape or hardscape elements.
Moonlighting
Place your lights up high — in a tree or on the roof. The light will shine down, adding brilliant shadows to your space.
Silhouetting
Adding light behind an object, typically a tree or statue, creates a dramatic two-dimensional representation of the outline of the object.
Hardscaping
Highlight stone features, retaining walls, outdoor kitchens, steps, handrails, benches and more.
