Good landscape design depends largely on things like plant selection and placement, as well as the choice of hardscaping elements such as pathways. In our experience at Carolina Illumination, garden lighting can have just as much of an impact on your landscape. If you want to take your landscape to the next level, we encourage you to reach out to us to discuss your garden lighting options.

How Garden Lighting Enhances Your Landscape

In this article, we will go over a few ways in which good garden lighting can enhance your landscape.

  • Utility – One way garden lighting can enhance your landscape is by allowing you to make greater use of your outdoor living spaces. Without outdoor lighting, you are limited to only using your patio, garden, or other outdoor living areas during daylight hours. If you want to be able to host outdoor gatherings or just enjoy spending time in these spaces after dark, we encourage you to have our team install a garden lighting scheme.
  • Ambience and Curb Appeal – Garden lighting can also be used to enhance the appearance of your landscape. Our experienced team members can create intricate lighting schemes to transform the appearance of your landscape, giving it a completely different atmosphere than it has by day. An illuminated garden at night can feel intimate and magical, and we encourage you to take advantage of the opportunity to create such a space. In addition, garden lighting allows you to show off your beautiful landscape even at night, enhancing your property’s curb appeal at all hours.
  • Safety and Security – Lastly, garden lighting also offers better safety and security. Adding path lighting along your driveway and walkways makes it easier to navigate around your landscape after dark, reducing the risk of fall accidents. In addition, adding outdoor lighting around your building and throughout your landscape helps to discourage intruders and makes them easier to spot if they do decide to approach.
