THE NIGHT LIFE

With artfully placed outdoor lighting you can transform your garden into an enchanting nightscape that will enrich your lifestyle

Have you ever considered just how much you could enhance the beauty of your garden with the addition of lighting? Lighting specialist Pekka Uusi-Hakimo, founder of Nitetime Designs, believes that your house and garden should be admired both day and night, and a well-conceived lighting design is the key to making that possible.

Garden lighting is an essential but often overlooked part of creating a beautiful outdoor space. With the proper lighting effects, your garden can become a more magical place to spend time in when the sun goes down.

Just one way you can create a truly eye-catching effect is to use strategically placed spotlights to highlight special design elements in your garden, such as trees, water features and sculptures. Uplighting is another technique which you might like to use to bring out the natural texture of the differing foliage on various plants.
