Make Your Yard Standout with These Outdoor Lighting Ideas

Don’t let sunset stop your outdoor plans. Keep the party going or enjoy a safe walk home with these landscape lighting ideas. Find out how a professionally designed and installed system can illuminate your way and create an outdoor oasis for you and your loved ones. Explore the trending lighting options for your walkway, backyard eating area, and other outdoor uses.

Light Up Your Path

After creating a beautiful outdoor walkway, make sure you can see it safely with path lights. These practical and beautiful lighting options come in many shapes and sizes, so match your lighting with your landscape design. Work with a professional team to connect all your lighting on a transformer for safe, energy-efficient use. A transformer allows you to turn on your path lighting whenever you wish or to set it on a timer.

Explore subtle, built-in pathway lighting for your deck, patio, or walkway. Some lighting uses a classic post design, while other options are incredibly subtle. Light your way with plants, stones, and steps that seem to glow on their own.

Protect Your Property

Security lighting illuminates common hiding places around your home. Ask a lighting technician about installing motion-activated floodlights to be sure your home is well lit. Lighting around your entire home deters intruders and helps you feel safe as you enjoy your backyard or walk home late in the evening.

A motion-detection light requires professional installation but can greatly improve the safety of your property by alerting you and your neighbors to any suspicious activity outside your home at night. This gives you peace of mind as you retire for the evening.

Outline a Seating Area

It’s not much fun to sit with your friends and family in the dark. Use string lights and other landscape lighting fixtures to create a cozy seating area. String stylish lights around a table, gazebo or patio space for late-night conversations. Discuss your lighting needs and your outdoor decor with a professional designer to discover the many string light options available to you.

Ask about high-lumen lighting for a clear eating area or look for softer lighting for a more intimate ambiance. Like other backyard lighting, be sure your string lights are designed for outdoor use and are easy to turn on and off as needed. Set them on a timer for hassle-free lighting or use a switch to light up a special gathering in your outdoor living area.

Work With a Landscape Lighting Design Team

While hanging a couple of string lights and putting a few path lights on your property may seem like an easy solution, it takes a professional to create an iconic outdoor experience.
