Shining some light on your property has many advantages such as increasing your homes curb appeal. Voss Landscape Lighting is willing to share a few secrets with you. Here are a few outdoor lighting techniques that you can use at your property.
Architectural Details
Why wouldn’t you want to show off you beautiful home? Lighting up the front exterior is a great start to increasing curb appeal. Adding lights to columns and gables begins to frame in the house and starts to add depth. With the right positioning you can shine light on the stone or brick and give your homes exterior texture.
Landscaping
Can you imagine paying thousands for landscaping and only get to enjoy it during the day? Adding just a few lights on some plants and trees really makes a difference to your property. Some plants are known for their color changes thought the year so it’s a good idea to shine some light on them. If a plant is known for its interesting details or leaf patterns you can add lights in front of them to cast shadows.
Focal Points/ Sculptures
Highlighting areas of your property like a significant tree, fountain, or sculpture brings meaning to the area. Adding more fixtures or brighter light draws the viewer’s eye to the focal point or your favorite piece of the garden. The area around should have softer light to add contrast so that the fountain or sculpture doesn’t appear to be under a spot light.
