Design
When it comes to designing a landscape lighting system, there are two main design elements to consider: functional lighting and aesthetic lighting.

A well lit home or property adds another layer of security to your premises.
Aesthetic
Up Lighting
Up lighting is an effective way to highlight trees. The bark and foliage of the tree pops against the night backdrop.
Down Lighting
Down lighting or moon lighting is a way to create interesting shadow affects on the ground below trees or similar features.
Wall Shadow
Wall Shadow
A wall shadow effect is achieved by shining light through plants that are adjacent to a wall or structure. The results are fascinating.
Wall Wash
Wall Shadow
Landscape lighting is not restricted to plants and walkways. Up lighting or wall washing your home's exterior is a very easy way to create a wow factor.
Pond Lighting
Your pond or waterfall may be the focal point of your yard during the day; however, this feature disappears at night. With pond lighting you can create an entirely new look to enjoy.
Sport Lighting
With the growing popularity of backyard putting greens and sport courts, many overlook an opportunity to showcase these areas at night. Illuminating sport landscaping showcases an entertainment area well after the sun goes down.
