At the corner of River and Broad in downtown Greenville, there is a new multi-functional apartment complex called River’s Edge. Enjoying stunning views of the Reedy River and proximity to all of the amenities of downtown, the complex also features restaurants and stunning outdoor areas for the enjoyment of their residence and the guests who patron the restaurant. Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Greenville had the unique pleasure of illuminating a recently renovated courtyard and outdoor eating area for The Playwright, an Irish Pub & Restaurant located in the River’s Edge complex.
A Stunning Greenville Courtyard Needs to Be Seen
The Playwright is a unique Irish Pub & Restaurant in downtown Greenville that features an authentic Irish feeling indoors and a gorgeous courtyard for dining outdoors. The recently renovated courtyard features a stunning circular paver patio with flowers in the center, benches & modern planters on the outer perimeter, a large open grass area with a tiered retaining wall featuring lovely shrubbery.
Near completion of the project, it was realized that outdoor lighting was a necessity for the active nightlife Greenville residents enjoy. The objective was to create a warm & inviting atmosphere in this courtyard for diners and the public alike. The courtyard is stunning during the day, giving us a gorgeous canvas for a dazzling outdoor lighting design. The commercial LED outdoor lighting had to wow the guests who already enjoyed the courtyard during the daytime.
Greenville Commercial LED Outdoor Lighting
To emphasize the circular paver patio we opted to customize our hardscape lights to work on the top edge of the planters that line the outer perimeter of the patio. This custom work took some ingenuity for concealing electrical wire inside the planters and mounting the lights just right. The results are stunning as they show the depth, texture and color of the custom inlay design on the paver patio while illuminating the tall artistic planters.
The large tiered retaining wall was our next design task. With recently completed custom stonework, our expertise came in handy to ensure the retaining walls were unharmed during the process. Our LED hardscape lights were perfect for the retaining wall as we carefully designed the downlights to highlight the wall, shrubbery and outer limits of the courtyard.
All-in-all we designed and installed 38 LED outdoor lights in the courtyard at The PlayWright. When the work was complete, our lighting expert Chris enjoyed a lovely date night with his wife. While the courtyard was packed with diners and pedestrians enjoying the newly illuminated space, Chris and his wife enjoyed a quiet meal in the authentic Irish Pub at River’s Edge in downtown Greenville.
