Landscaping adds an aesthetic element to both commercial and residential buildings
alike. Can you imagine going to one of Georgia’s breathtaking plantations
only for them to be surrounded by dirt and no grass, flowers or trees?
Historic and modern architecture are greatly complimented by luscious
landscaping – that is hard to argue.
Green grass, blossoming spring flowers, plants, gorgeous trees, wooden
decks, rockscapes, and backyard waterfalls are all beautiful to look at.
They bring peace and calm and they truly add to the beauty of the outdoor
environment, but they can only be enjoyed until the sun goes down. Once
darkness falls, we can no longer see them, let alone enjoy their splendor.
This is where landscape lighting comes in.
Benefits of Landscape Lighting
What do you think are the benefits of landscape lighting? Curb appeal?
Added safety and enhanced security? Those are definitely some of the benefits,
but it also allows you to see in the dark, it lets you enjoy your yard
24 hours a day, it beautifies your yard in the evening hours, it enhances
the aesthetics of your home, it illuminates hazards like steps and low-hanging
branches, it also creates a lasting impression for first-time visitors.
But don’t take our word for it. “You've pulled out all
the stops to make your house and yard look first-rate. So why let that
hard work disappear at nightfall when, with a flick of a switch and some
strategically placed landscape lights, you can roll back the darkness
and put it all on display? Done right, landscape lighting makes the best
of what you've got by highlighting your home's architectural features
and drawing attention to prized plantings and trees,” Jim Gorman
