When you don’t know where to start when it comes to creating the outdoor landscape lighting design of your dreams, we have a few things to keep in mind when choosing your landscape lighting style to ensure it is the right one for you and your home:

Make a statement – If you are looking to draw attention to your home and increase its curb appeal, this style is very effective.  Using low voltage spotlights and floodlights can provide sufficient light to brighten your home while adding path lights along walkways will also help to showcase your yard along with providing safety for you and your guests.

Be a minimalist – For professional looking landscape lighting, less is more.  This style can be achieved just by adding spotlights to illuminate trees, path lights to light the walkway to your home, and wall washes to illuminate the sides of your home.  These types of fixtures will provide sufficient lighting for your home and property while also being functional and allows the use of fewer lighting fixtures.

Lighting for safety – When safety lighting is of the upmost important to a homeowner, low-voltage floodlights and spotlights are the answer.  By adding these types of fixtures, especially along driveways and walkways, you will make your home safer for you and your guests and will deter unwanted visitors too.

Combine your styles – Combining several styles into one system design is one of the best approaches to creating a landscape lighting design.  By using a variety of fixtures, you can showcase your home’s aesthetics, provide an added sense of security for you and your family, and also increase your home’s curb appeal.

Every homeowner’s individual style is different, and each yard is unique.  Consulting with a professional outdoor landscape lighting company is a wise decision to ensure you create the right system to fit the needs and style of your particular home and property.
