2 Reasons You Need Landscape Lighting in Your Life
Landscape Lighting Takes Yards that Look Dreary at Night and Makes Them Pop
Nothing takes a backyard from drab to fab quite like the right landscape lighting solutions. Whether you want to spice up an outdoor pool or fountain, you just want to put some accent lighting on a few key pieces of statuary, or you just want to light up those beautiful trees that drew you to your Rye, NY home in the first place, choosing the right landscaping lighting solution is critical to making your outdoor dreams come true.

Accent Lighting for Parties or a Quiet Night at Home
While most people think of landscape lighting as a solution for brightening up a backyard and keeping it illuminated for a night of reading with a glass of wine on a cool spring evening, accent lighting can do an incredible job of setting a mood that a handful of lights along a small path or around a pool just won’t be able to accomplish.
We love the idea of using the right accent lighting to draw attention to the beautiful features of your landscape, like statuary or fountains. It can also be the perfect solution for lighting up features that help guests to find the right home—like a little accent lighting on your front door or under your windows.
You can even program your lighting systems to change color and intensity as the sun rises and sets so that you can set the perfect mood (especially if you have an outdoor sound system to set the right music for the scene), whether it be for a big party or just a couple beers with some friends on a Saturday night.
Illuminating Those Gorgeous Trees
One of our favorite applications of lighting is to illuminate beautiful trees. So many properties in New York are covered with some of the most luscious trees in the world. It would be a shame to let them go unnoticed at night.
Another reason we like the idea of lighting up trees is that they create the perfect atmosphere in a backyard, especially when you have a lot of trees clustered together. The feeling of being under a canopy doesn’t have to be limited to day time.
We’ll not only help you find the right fixtures to give your trees a layered look, we’ll provide an intuitive control solution that lets you adjust lights as needed to highlight particular areas of your backyard.
