future information to integrate:


  • Accent lighting: Highlighting specific features like trees, statues, or architectural elements.
  • Path lighting: Illuminating walkways, driveways, and garden edges for safety and ambiance.
  • Uplighting: Placing lights at the base of an object to shine upward and emphasize its form.
  • Downlighting: Mounting lights high (e.g., in a tree) to create a soft, "moonlight" effect on the ground below.
  • Wall washing: Creating a gentle, even glow over a vertical surface like a wall or fence.
  • Grazing: Positioning a light close to a textured surface (like brick or stone) to create dramatic shadows and highlight the texture.
  • Silhouetting: Placing a light behind an object to showcase its outline against a lit backdrop.
  • Shadowing: Creating shadows behind an object to add depth and dimension to a landscape.
  • Hardscape lighting: Integrating lights into features like retaining walls, steps, handrails, and benches.
  • In-ground lighting: Placing lights in the ground to illuminate trees, walls, or paths.
  • Spotlight: A focused beam of light used for accent lighting.
  • Floodlight: A broad beam of light used to illuminate a large area, often for security purposes. 
  • Path lights: Fixtures, often mounted on stakes or posts, that illuminate walkways.
  • Bullet lights: Small, cylindrical spotlights used for accent lighting.
  • Bollard lights: Short, post-like fixtures that provide illumination for paths and driveways.
  • Well lights: Fixtures that are installed underground and shine upwards.
  • Deck lighting: Lighting fixtures designed for mounting on decks, steps, and railings.
  • Step lights: Low-profile lights installed to illuminate stairs.
  • String lights: Decorative lights strung together, like classic cafe or market lights.
  • Underwater/pond lights: Submersible fixtures for illuminating water features.
  • Recessed lighting: Lights installed flush with a surface for a seamless look. 
  • Low voltage: The standard for most residential landscape lighting, running on a 12V system.
  • LED: Energy-efficient and long-lasting light bulbs.
  • Halogen: A more traditional bulb type that produces a warm, bright light.
  • Dimmable: Fixtures that allow for adjustable brightness levels.
  • Transformer: A necessary component for low-voltage systems that reduces household electricity to a safe level.
  • Beam spread: The angle or diameter of the light beam.
  • Color temperature: The "warmth" or "coolness" of the light, measured in Kelvin.
  • Lumens: The measure of light output or brightness.
  • Solid brass/copper: High-quality housing materials known for durability and attractive finish.
  • Weatherproof/waterproof: Indicates that fixtures are sealed to withstand outdoor elements. 
  • Useful: Every light should have a clear purpose.
  • Targeted: Light should be directed only where it is needed, typically downward, to prevent light spill.
  • Low Level: Use the lowest light level necessary.
  • Controlled: Use motion sensors, timers, or dimmers to ensure light is on only when needed.
  • Warm Color: Use warmer-colored lights (lower Kelvin) to minimize disruption to wildlife and human sleep cycles.
  • Path lights: Typically mounted on stakes, these fixtures project light downward and outward to illuminate paths, driveways, and flowerbeds.
  • Spotlights (Bullet lights): Directional and versatile, these lights create accent and spotlighting effects for highlighting trees, walls, and other features.
  • Well lights: Installed in the ground, these lights provide dramatic up lighting for trees, columns, and walls.
  • Hardscape lights: Compact fixtures installed within masonry, under steps, or beneath railing caps to provide subtle, integrated lighting for patios, retaining walls, and outdoor kitchens.
  • Floodlights: Offer a broad wash of light to cover large areas for security or to illuminate a wide landscape feature.
  • Deck lights: Small lights specifically designed for installation on deck stairs, posts, and surfaces.
  • String lights: Primarily for decorative ambient lighting, these are often used on pergolas, decks, and patios.
  • Low-voltage (12V): The industry standard for quality landscape lighting. A hardwired system ensures reliable, consistent performance in all weather conditions. Low-voltage wiring requires a transformer to reduce your home's 120V power to 12-15v.
  • Solar: A convenient but less reliable option, as its brightness and runtime depend on sunlight. Performance is often inconsistent, especially during cloudy weather, and fixtures tend to be less durable.
  • LED: The superior choice for residential use. LED bulbs use up to 80% less energy and last significantly longer than halogen bulbs. They produce less heat and offer various color temperatures.
  • Halogen: A more traditional bulb that uses more energy and burns out faster. While cheaper initially, the high operating costs and frequent replacement make it a poor long-term investment.
  • High-quality fixtures are built to withstand the elements.
  • Solid brass and copper: These materials are highly durable and age gracefully with an attractive patina.
  • Quality housings: Ensure a tight seal to protect against moisture intrusion, preventing corrosion and extending the life of the fixture.
  • Careful planning is crucial for a stunning and long-lasting installation.

  1. Develop a plan: Start with a nighttime walkthrough to understand the existing lighting and visualize potential effects.
  2. Layout: Place fixtures and run low-voltage wiring along the planned routes.
  3. Trenching: Burying the low-voltage wire is required to protect it and keep it out of sight.
  4. Connect and test: Connect all fixtures to the main line, and a licensed electrician should handle any necessary 120V work like outdoor outlet installation.
