Host Gatherings Without a Time Limit: Options for Strategic Outdoor Lighting in the North Middleton Township and Camp Hill, PA Areas
When the summer season arrives, you’re likely going to want to spend as much time outside as possible, even into the evening hours. If you want to expand the time you have to spend outside each day, adding outdoor lighting to your North Middleton Township and Camp Hill, PA, area property can help you do so. Here are some options for the ideal landscape lighting design:
Pool Patio Lighting to Expand Party Potential
If splashing around the inground pool is one of your favorite activities, why limit your time to the daylight areas? Beyond the pool itself could be landscaping lighting that sets the mood for many parties that continue well after the sun goes down. In addition to the pool deck, your landscape contractor can add outdoor lights to the fine garden areas around the patio and within surrounding retaining walls, to help to keep the good times going and give everyone sitting in your backyard many elements to admire. If you have a pool house, add a spotlight or two to this structure to enable you to turn on a brighter, more vivid light when you want to do so.
Fine Garden Lighting
Show off your beautiful blooms by adding outdoor lights to your garden areas. You can ask the landscape contractor to install outdoor lighting in your favorite garden areas so you and others may view these lovely natural elements once the sun goes down. Adding lighting to the garden areas also creates an overall lovely visual. While you’re sitting comfortably on your paver patio, you can watch the breeze move ornamental grasses and the shadows created by the moonlighting effect on your favorite trees.
Backyard Spotlight for Evening Sports
If you love to play volleyball in your yard or want to throw a baseball around with the kids, add one or more spotlights to this outdoor space. You can ask the landscape contractor to install spotlights on the side of your house or backyard shed to shine a bright light on an open lawn area. When you add outdoor lighting to your yard, you may find you spend more time outdoors breathing in the fresh air and getting your daily amount of exercise.
Outdoor Lights for Dining on the Patio
Some lighting could be specifically installed to set a particular ambiance for enjoyable outdoor dining. Strategically installed lighting makes the transition from the outdoor kitchen, which requires task lighting, to the dining area seamless.
Walkway Lighting for Evening Strolls
Recessed lighting along your walkways, from your front yard to your backyard, can help tie in the various landscape features visually at night while also providing a clear route for visitors. This type of lighting is useful for maintenance purposes and is also bright enough for safe walking yet subtle enough that the overall effect is attractive.
