4 Reasons to Have Outdoor Accent Lighting

4 Reasons to Have Outdoor Accent Lighting

Outdoor accent lighting, also known as directional lighting, directs light at a particular object or architectural element you want to accentuate. Often used to illuminate and highlight a specific plant, tree, or prominent feature, it adds visual interest to your property while providing a multitude of benefits to homeowners. In this blog post, we’ll discuss four reasons to have outdoor accent lighting.

1) To enjoy your landscaping at night:

Whether you’ve toiled at it and completed your own landscaping or whether you’ve hired a professional landscaping service, there is no reason you should only enjoy the fruits of your labor (or your investment) during the day. Outdoor accent lighting directed at shrubs, plants, trees, or your most prized decorative feature will allow you to continue to enjoy the beauty of your garden.

2) To enhance your home’s curb appeal:

By incorporating outdoor accent lighting, you’re increasing the curb appeal of your home. For instance, you could illuminate a stone path, specific areas of the garden, or the majestic trees in your front yard. Accent lighting adds warmth to your property and creates an inviting and convivial atmosphere.

3) To extend the usability of your outdoor entertaining areas:

Outdoor entertaining areas require a combination of task and ambient lighting such as accent lights to get the best results. While task lighting is best for areas such as the grill, accent lighting, used with additional ambient lighting is excellent at creating a warm atmosphere around the seating areas.

4)  To add value to your home:

Outdoor lighting is a great investment and an inexpensive way to increase the value of your property while making it stand out at night. If you’re planning on selling your home, it can help you get a higher valuation and convince that potential buyer to put an offer on your property.
