Garden Lighting Tips

There are many similarities between great garden lighting and indoor lighting design. Careful planning and forethought are needed for both. Choosing an experienced and qualified electrician to install your garden lighting will guarantee the best results. They will understand how to balance your wants and needs and will consider how different lighting will affect your experience.

When creating a garden lighting design for your Southend home they will consider:

• Access: It is important to think about how you will move around your garden. Lighting the pathways you use to cross your garden will help prevent any accidents. Steps should be illuminated to prevent falls. You can create beautiful, safe pathways with the addition of post lights, wall lights and recessed lighting.
• Function: Garden lighting can fulfil more than one function when planned with care. Lighting can not only look great but can also make it harder for any unwanted guests to access your property. By installing lighting that does not inadvertently create darker areas concealing entry points you can increase your gardens security and visual appeal. 
• Layers of Light: Layering your lighting is the key to great lighting design. Interest and warmth can be created with garden lighting set at different levels or with variable brightness. Festoon and fairy lights added to your patio will create an intimate atmosphere, whilst bright task lighting will help you to see the food and drinks you are preparing.  
• Key Features: Do you have any dramatic or particularly impressive plants or features in your garden? If so, you can create immediate drama by lighting them up with a spotlight. Choose just one or two key pieces as too many could overwhelm the overall affect.  
• Water: Illuminating water can create stunning visual effects. If you have a pond, you can add some gentle lights for a magical effect.
