Outdoor lighting can expand your visual space. A window that is a black rectangle after dark becomes a view again once the garden beyond it is lit.
Landscape lighting also enhances artful elements — specimen trees, stonework, the architecture of the house itself — and creates safety by eliminating glare and blind spots along steps, drives and paths. Lit properly, it is a crime deterrent as well.
The word that matters is properly. Badly aimed outdoor fixtures produce glare, which makes it harder to see, not easier. The design work is in the aiming, shielding and restraint as much as in the fixture choice.
Atlanta Lighting Design designs outdoor lighting and supervises the installation, so that the result at night matches the intent.
Atlanta Lighting Design works from Decatur, Georgia, on projects across Georgia, Florida, Alabama, North and South Carolina, Tennessee, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas and California.
