atmosphere in your garden

Looking to create an ambiance in your garden? Create an atmospheric lighting plan!

 

Garden lighting should be functional as well as contributing to the atmosphere outdoors. If you have worked hard to create a beautiful garden, obviously you would still want to enjoy it after the sun goes down. With the right atmospheric lighting, you can give your garden the attention it deserves while ensuring a cozy, comfortable atmosphere.

 

Step back and take a look

Take a good look at your garden. Are there special areas that you would like to highlight? Perhaps a particular flower bed or a garden ornament? Maybe you would like to shine light on your pond or fence? Or maybe a big tall tree needs some extra attention.
