LANDSCAPE LIGHTING OPTIONS TO BRIGHTEN UP A PROPERTY AT NIGHT
Homeowners can illuminate their home exteriors in numerous ways,
each of which can add to a property’s aesthetic appeal at night.
• Flood lights: Flood lights are a type of
spotlight that are generally used to illuminate
large areas, such as a driveway or a
deck. Flood lights illuminate from above, so
these typically are best for lighting up manmade
portions of a home’s exterior rather
than natural features like trees or gardens.
• Garden lights: Garden lights direct light
downward toward a garden. Th ese provide
a soft light that can draw attention to plants
at dusk and throughout the night. Many
homeowners like the sense of serenity garden
lights help to create during twilight and
evening hours.
• Path lights: Similar to step lights, path
lights typically are installed as a safety feature.
But path lights still boast aesthetic appeal,
as they help to light up walkways and
driveways without providing a burst of light
that can feel overwhelming for residents
and visitors. Path lights come in a variety of
styles and sizes, so homeowners can experiment
with their options to fi nd the one that
best suits their needs.
• Ground lighting: Ground lighting is like
recessed lighting inside a home, only these
lights are placed in the ground and send
light upward rather than downward from
a ceiling. Ground lighting fi xtures are oft en
installed in gardens, directing light upward
toward shrubs or trees.

illuminate the many diff erent ways homeowners
can use light to make their properties
more appealing at night.
• Spotlights: Spotlights are among the more
popular landscape lighting options. Spotlights
are used by fans of uplighting, which
places the light beneath a particular feature
and then aims light upward to draw attention
to it. Many homeowners utilize spotlights
and uplighting to illuminate statues
and trees.
• Step lights: Step lights help to make moving
around a property at night more safe.
Step lights are installed on the vertical face
of the step or along the sides of each step.
Homeowners who have a deck may fi nd
step lights particularly useful, especially if
the deck is multi-level and/or attached to a
staircase that leads down into a yard.
