The Many Benefits Of Adding Exterior Lighting To Your Charlotte Home
Illuminate your home’s beautiful facade at night
Everyone can see that your home is beautiful in the daytime, but it takes professionally designed and installed lighting to show it off at night. Outdoor lighting is not for the do-it-yourselfer. The trained and experienced lighting designers with Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Charlotte use specific lighting techniques and equipment to achieve the most beautiful effects. Where we can, we work with shrubbery lining your home’s façade, and we also use stand-alone fixtures. We’re careful not to shine lights directly into your windows! Our lighting technicians will carefully angle each light fixture just right to highlight dramatic elements of your home whether it’s made of stone, brick, siding or stucco. We find the perfect balance of light and shadow to draw out your home’s best features.
What is Façade Lighting?
Facade lighting is a lighting technique commonly used to accentuate the front-face (or facade) of a building. This is done to allow the full beauty of the home for building's architecture to show through, even in the darkest time of night!
Illuminate your Charlotte landscaping and gardens at night
Hand-in-hand with architectural lighting, landscape lighting will pull
back the dark curtain and reveal the beauty of your property at night.
A favorite tree, the gardens you have carefully nurtured or a line of
hedges cradling your driveway—with landscape lighting we selectively
illuminate beautiful features in your yard. Instead of lighting almost
everything, we carefully choose those elements of your landscape that
can be illuminated most effectively. This is where our artful design talent
comes into play. Much like an interior designer, an exterior lighting
designer makes an artistic statement using your home and landscape as
a canvas. Water features such fountains and ponds with waterfalls are
especially beautiful with the soft glow of subtle outdoor lighting, as
are outdoor fireplaces. If you have statues in your yard, or any other
type of yard art, those are perfect candidates for outdoor lighting.
Add security to your Charlotte home
With architectural and landscape lighting your family can feel safer in your home at night. Would-be intruders avoid well-illuminated homes. Outdoor lighting, strategically placed, removes the dark shadows where potential intruders would hide. When those intruders see that your neighbors can observe every move they make, your home becomes less appealing as a target. If you have security cameras, this lighting will help ensure clearer images.
Add safety to your Charlotte home
We differentiate safety lighting from security lighting to speak directly
about safe footing, for example, from the car to the door. Additional
lighting is extremely beneficial there, along your pathways and up your
front or back steps. When used as a part of a landscape lighting design,
we call this form of lighting
path lighting. Stepping stones can be especially treacherous at night because they tend
to shift and become uneven over time. If you have a pool, you definitely
want to remove tripping hazards by illuminating the path from pool to
house with subtle but effective path lights. You know how tiny feet like
to run back to the house from the pool! We also recommend adding tiny
deck lights on your deck stair risers for deck safety. Improve your peace
of mind with exterior lighting for the safety of your family and your guests.
Add safety and ambiance to your outdoor living areas
The deck, the patio, the pool area—all of these become safer with even a small amount of illumination. What’s wonderful is the same lights can be used to create a warm and welcoming ambiance for your outdoor living spaces. When we add just the right amount of lighting here, you’ll be amazed at how much more time you spend enjoying these areas at night.
Improve your home’s resale value
You could call it nighttime curb appeal. If you’re planning to sell your home, create additional value first with a professionally-installed outdoor lighting system. This is when outdoor lighting pays for itself. Your real estate agent will be impressed, and your efforts may practically sell the house for them.
With Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Charlotte handling your design and installation, you will have complete confidence that your lighting team is close by, highly trained and ready to handle any maintenance needs you may have such as bulb replacement.
